Histopathologic and Myogenic Gene Expression Changes Associated with Wooden Breast in Broiler Breast Muscles.

Avian diseases - 1 Sept 2015

Velleman Sandra G, Clark Daniel L

Abstract excerpt

The wooden breast condition is a myopathy affecting the pectoralis major (p. major) muscle in fast-growing commercial broiler lines. Currently, wooden breast-affected birds are phenotypically detected by palpation of the breast area, with affected birds having a very hard p. major muscle that is of lower value. The objective of this study was to compare the wooden breast myopathy in two fast-growing broiler lines...
