Genome-wide characterization of copy number variations in the host genome in genetic resistance to Marek’s disease using next generation sequencing
Abstract Background Marek’s disease (MD) is a highly neoplastic disease primarily affecting chickens, and remains as a chronic infectious disease that threatens the poultry industry. Copy number variation (CNV) has been examined in many species and is recognized as a major source of genetic variatio...
