The quail as an avian model system: its genome provides insights into social behaviour, seasonal biology and infectious disease response

2019-03-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The Japanese quail ( Coturnix japonica ) is a popular domestic poultry species and an increasingly significant model species in avian developmental, behavioural and disease research. We have produced a high-quality quail genome sequence, spanning 0.93 Gb assigned to 33 chromosomes. In terms of contiguity, assembly statistics, gene content and chromosomal organization, the quail genome shows hig...
