RNA-Seq Analysis Reveals Expression Regulatory Divergence of W-Linked Genes between Two Contrasting Chicken Breeds

The regulation of gene expression is a complex process involving organism function and phenotypic diversity, and is caused by cis- and trans- regulation. While prior studies identified the regulatory pattern of the autosome rewiring in hybrids, the role of gene regulation in W sex chromosomes is not...
