Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The adaptation to hypoxia in high altitude areas has great research value in the field of biological sciences. Tibetan chicken has unique adaptability to high-altitude, low pressure and anoxic conditions, and served as a biological model to search for genetic diversity of hypoxia adaption. METHODS: The whole genome re-sequencing technology was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity. RESULTS:...
