Dynamics of adaptive alleles in divergently selected body weight lines of chickens.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.) - 9 Dec 2013

Pettersson Mats E, Johansson Anna M, Siegel Paul B, Carlborg Orjan

Abstract excerpt

By studying genomic changes over time in populations subjected to strong artificial directional selection, we can gain insights to the dynamics of beneficial alleles originating from the founder population or emerging as novel mutations undergoing ongoing selection. The Virginia lines are a chicken resource population generated by long-term bi-directional, single-trait selection for juvenile body weight. We...
