Abstract excerpt
Availability of a dense single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) map in chickens has allowed for whole-genome QTL mapping for disease resistance. In this study, two F8 advanced intercross lines of broiler by Fayoumi and broiler by Leghorn chickens, and a dense, genome-wide SNP panel were used to map genomic regions associated with host resistance to bacterial colonisation. One week after inoculation of day-old chicks...
