26 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Sex-related genes play a crucial role in gonadal differentiation into testes or ovaries. However, the genetic control of gonadal differentiation in Muscovy ducks remains unknown. Therefore, the objective of our study was to screen new candidate genes associated with ovarian and testicular development. RESULTS: In this study, 24 males before gonadal differentiation (MB), 24 females before gonadal...
