Inheritance of the henny feathering trait in the golden Campine chicken: evidence for allelism with the gene that causes henny feathering in the Sebright bantam.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

The henny feathering mutation causes roosters to develop female feathering morphology as a result of increased conversion of androgen to estrogen (aromatase activity) in extraglandular tissues, including skin. This trait is maintained in two breeds of chickens: the Sebright Bantam and the Golden Campine. To characterize the inheritance of this trait further, we did breeding studies of the Golden Campine and...
