Genetic variations for the eggshell crystal structure revealed by genome-wide association study in chickens.

BMC genomics - 2 Nov 2021

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Eggshell is a bio-ceramic material comprising columnar calcite (CaCO3) crystals and organic proteinaceous matrix. The size, shape and orientation of the CaCO3 crystals influence the microstructural properties of chicken eggshells. However, the genetic architecture underlying eggshell crystal polymorphism remains to be elucidated. RESULTS: The integral intensity of the nine major diffraction peaks,...
