Genome-wide association study reveals novel loci associated with body size and carcass yields in Pekin ducks.
TL;DR: The novel results of this study improve the understanding of the genetic mechanisms regulating body growth in ducks and thus provide a genetic basis for breeding programs aimed at maximizing the economic potential of Pekin ducks.
Isolation and characterization of natural melanin derived from silky fowl (Gallus gallus domesticus Brisson)
TL;DR: Water-insoluble melanins derived from silky fowl were isolated using an enzymatic extraction procedure and yielded highly purified products while maintaining the natural properties of the SF-melanin, which could be chemically, physically, morphologically, defined as eumelanin.

TL;DR: Genome partitioning analysis indicated a strong linear correlation between the variance explained by each chromosome and its length, which provided evidence that EW follows a highly polygenic nature of inheritance.
Copy number variations identified in the chicken using a 60K SNP BeadChip.
TL;DR: Identification of 190 new identified CNVs illustrates the feasibility of the chicken 60K SNP BeadChip to detect CNVs in the chicken, which lays a solid foundation for future analyses of associations of CNVs with economically important phenotypes in chickens.

Genetic parameters of feed efficiency traits in laying period of chickens
Jingwei Yuan,Dou Taocun,Meng Ma,Guoqiang Yi,Sirui Chen,Lujiang Qu,Manman Shen,Qu Liang,Wang Kehua,Ning Yang +9 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that selection for low RFI could reduce FI without significant changes in EM, while selection on FCR will increase EM, and the foundation for genetic improvement of feed efficiency during the laying period of chickens is laid.
