Abstract excerpt
The identification and utilization of potential candidate genes for QTL with significant effects on economically important traits are becoming increasingly important in poultry breeding programs. Chicken insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 and 3 and signal transducers and activators of transcription 5B (STAT5B) genes are 3 essential nodes for signaling pathways and gene networks of growth and...
