Taiwan Country chickens are integral to Taiwanese culture and the poultry industry. By establishing a crossbreeding system, breeders must consider growth-related traits of dam line achieve acceptable in commercial meat-type chickens. This study compared accuracy genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs) predicted using pedigree-based best linear unbiased prediction (PBLUP) model single-step BLUP (ssGBLUP) model. Additionally, we conducted genome-wide association (GWAS) identify...
Feathers have diverse forms with hierarchical branching patterns and are an excellent model for studying the development evolution of morphological traits. The complex structure feathers allows various types changes to occur. genetic basis structural differences between different parts a feather is fundamental question in study diversity, yet there only limited relevant information gene expression during development. We conducted transcriptomic analysis five zones morphologies from two at...
