Characterization of microRNA and mRNA expression profiles in skin tissue between early-feathering and late-feathering chickens

Abstract Background Early feathering and late feathering in chickens are sex-linked phenotypes, which have commercial application in the poultry industry for sexing chicks at hatch and have important impacts on performance traits. However, the genetic mechanism controlling feather development and fe...
