Genome-Wide Population Genetic Analysis of Commercial, Indigenous, Game, and Wild Chickens Using 600K SNP Microarray Data

Genome-Wide Population Genetic Analysis of Commercial, Indigenous, Game, and Wild Chickens Using 600K SNP Microarray Data

Following chicken domestication, diversified chicken breeds were developed by both natural and artificial selection, which led to the accumulation of abundant genetic and phenotypic variations, making chickens an ideal genetic research model. To better understand the genetic structure of chicken bre...
