Abstract excerpt
Specific pathogen-free ducks are important high-grade laboratory animals, with a key role in research related to poultry biosecurity, production, and breeding. However, the genetic characteristics of experimental duck varieties remain poorly explored. Herein we performed whole-genome resequencing to construct a single nucleotide polymorphism genetic map of the genomes of 3 experimental duck varieties [Jinding...
