Large-scale transcriptome sequencing in broiler chickens to identify candidate genes for breast muscle weight and intramuscular fat content

16 Aug 2021

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In broiler production, breast muscle weight and intramuscular fat (IMF) content are important economic traits. Understanding the genetic mechanisms that underlie these traits is essential to implement effective genetic improvement programs. To date, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and gene expression analyses have been performed to identify candidate genes for these traits. However, GWAS mainly...
