Abstract excerpt
In recent years, a mass of duplicated and deleted DNA sequences have been found in human and animal genomes following the prevalence of employing high-throughput sequencing and SNP array. However, few copy number variation (CNV) studies have been performed on egg performance traits of chicken. In this study, 17 loci reported in previous studies were selected for CNV detection in the Xinhua E-strain by using the...
