Abstract excerpt
Keel length is a key body size indicator, which has an important impact on the overall growth performance, bone health, and production performance of poultry. In the process of selecting crossed strains for yellow feathered broiler chickens, it is generally necessary to select keel length, but there is little research on keel length development. Therefore, resequencing and GWAS was employed to obtain SNP...
