Abstract excerpt
Ovarian development is a complex process involving many genes and pathways. A well-developed ovary is essential for poultry to keep high egg production and egg fertility. In order to better understand the mechanism of egg production performance, a comparative transcriptomic analysis was performed on ovaries of black Muscovy ducks at the early (BE), peak (BP) and late laying (BL) stages. 1683 DEGs were identified...
