Detection of loci exhibiting pleiotropic effects on body weight and egg number in female broilers
Abstract The objective of the present study was to discover the genetic variants, functional candidate genes, biological processes and molecular functions underlying the negative genetic correlation observed between body weight (BW) and egg number (EN) traits in female broilers. To this end, first a...
