Genetic and neuro-epigenetic effects of divergent artificial selection for feather pecking behaviour in chickens

2024-09-30

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Feather pecking (FP) is a repetitive behavior in chickens, influenced by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors, similar to behaviors seen in human developmental disorders (e.g., hyperactivity, autism). This study examines genetic and neuro-epigenetic factors in the thalamus of chickens from lines selected for seven generations for high or low FP behavior (HFP or LFP). We integr...
