Identification of selection signatures involved in performance traits in a paternal broiler line

Abstract Background Natural and artificial selection leads to changes in certain regions of the genome resulting in selection signatures that can reveal genes associated with the selected traits. Selection signatures may be identified using different methodologies, of which some are based on detecti...
