Integrative transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis reveals alterations in energy metabolism and mitochondrial functionality in broiler chickens with wooden breast

Abstract This integrative study of transcriptomics and metabolomics aimed to improve our understanding of Wooden Breast myopathy (WB). Breast muscle samples from 8 WB affected and 8 unaffected male broiler chickens of 47 days of age were harvested for metabolite profiling. Among these 16 samples, 5...
