Abstract excerpt
F(1) and F(2) populations were generated by crossing two lines of chickens divergently selected from a common founder population for 32 generations for either high or low antibody response 5 days post-injection of a non-pathogenic antigen, sheep red blood cells (SRBCs). The number of loci with major effects on day 5 SRBC titers was estimated to be more than 7 in this population. There was a significant...
