Abstract excerpt
Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is an immunoregulatory cytokine involved in various inflammatory and immune responses. To investigate the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes of IL-6 on resistance to Eimeria tenella (E. tenella), SNPs in the 5' regulatory region of IL-6 were detected with direct sequencing, and the effects of SNPs and haplotypes on resistance to E. tenella were analyzed by the...
