Genome wide association study of body weight and feed efficiency traits in a commercial broiler chicken population, a re-visitation
Abstract Genome wide association study was conducted using a mixed linear model (MLM) approach that accounted for family structure to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and candidate genes associated with body weight (BW) and feed efficiency (FE) traits in a broiler chicken population....
