Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The identification of markers and genes for growth traits may not only benefit for marker assist selection /genomic selection but also provide important information for understanding the genetic foundation of growth traits in broilers. RESULTS: In the current study, we estimated the genetic parameters of eight growth traits in broilers and carried out the genome-wide association studies for these...
