Genomic dissection and prediction of feed intake and residual feed intake traits using a longitudinal model in F2 chickens
Feed efficiency traits (FETs) are important economic indicators in poultry production. Because feed intake (FI) is a time-dependent variable, longitudinal models can provide insights into the genetic basis of FET variation over time. It is expected that the application of longitudinal models as part...
