TCF21 is related to testis growth and development in broiler chickens

24 Feb 2017

Abstract excerpt

Large amounts of fat deposition often lead to loss of reproductive efficiency in humans and animals. We used broiler chickens as a model species to conduct a two-directional selection for and against abdominal fat over 19 generations, which resulted in a lean and a fat line. Direct selection for abdominal fat content also indirectly resulted in significant differences ( P < 0.05) in testis weight (TeW) and in TeW...
