Genetic diversity and population structure in lines of chickens divergently selected for high and low 8-week body weight.
A long-term selection experiment for high or low 8-wk BW in White Plymouth Rock chickens was conducted to study effects of selection on BW and correlated characters. Two lines [high (HWS), low (LWS) weight] were established and have undergone 48 generations of selection. The lines were managed to curtail inbreeding and to maintain similar population structures; such is necessary for equitable c...
متن کاملMapping QTL for growth and shank traits in chickens divergently selected for high or low body weight.
An F(2) population (695 individuals) was established from broiler chickens divergently selected for either high (HG) or low (LG) growth, and used to localize QTL for developmental changes in body weight (BW), shank length (SL9) and shank diameter (SD9) at 9 weeks. QTL mapping revealed three genome-wide QTL on chromosomes (GGA) 2, 4 and 26 and three suggestive QTL on GGA 1, 3 and 5. Most of the ...
متن کاملChickens from lines artificially selected for juvenile low and high body weight differ in glucose homeostasis and pancreas physiology.
Artificial selection of White Plymouth Rock chickens for juvenile (day 56) body weight resulted in two divergent genetic lines: hypophagic low weight (LWS) chickens and hyperphagic obese high weight (HWS) chickens, with the latter more than 10-fold heavier than the former at selection age. A study was designed to investigate glucose regulation and pancreas physiology at selection age in LWS chi...
متن کاملTranscriptional analysis of the liver in juvenile broiler chickens divergently selected for high or low body weight
egg ω-3 content for the fl axseed diet (from 546 to 578 mg/60g egg; P=0.02) and for the Linpro diet (from 415 to 438 mg/60g egg; P=0.07). As well, an overall decrease (P=0.01) in ω-6 to ω-3 ratio (from 1.53 to 1.47) was noted. Enzyme addition increased (P=0.02) the NSP digestibility from 17.2 to 24.6%. There was no signifi cant effect of enzyme addition on total tract fat digestibility. Overall...
متن کاملInfluence of storage conditions on quality and viability of high and low oleic sunflower seeds
Storage conditions of oil seeds before industrial extraction might influence the quality of the crude oil. The aim of present study was to clarify the storage able potency of high and low oleic cultivars of sunflower based on oil and fatty acid changes of seeds and their viability. The seed samples of four sunflower cultivars (two high oleic and two low oleic) were stored in three different tem...
