Abstract excerpt

The meat yield and quality of broilers are largely determined by myofiber hyperplasia and hypertrophy. However, the inability to accurately quantify myofiber traits on a large scale has limited their application in breeding programs. Here, we utilized whole-slide imaging (WSI) and deep learning tool to quantify the total number (TNM) and cross-sectional area (CSA) of myofibers in the pectoralis major (PM) and...
