Relationship of runs of homozygosity with adaptive and production traits in a paternal broiler line

Relationship of runs of homozygosity with adaptive and production traits in a paternal broiler line

Genomic regions under high selective pressure present specific runs of homozygosity (ROH), which provide valuable information on the genetic mechanisms underlying the adaptation to environment imposed challenges. In broiler chickens, the adaptation to conventional production systems in tropical envi...
