Abstract excerpt

Polymorphisms in the neurotransmitter-related genes can be a major source of behavioral variations. We searched for polymorphic sites in chicken neurotransmitter-related genes and identified two variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) loci encompassing the paralog of chicken serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT). Both intronic VNTR were highly polymorphic across chicken breeds and the other Galliformes species, even...
