The A Allele of the Cholecystokinin Type A Receptor Gene g.420 C > A Polymorphism Improves Growth Traits in Amakusa Daioh Cross Chicken

Amakusa Daioh cross chickens are F1 hybrids of restored Amakusa Daioh sires and Kyushu Rhode dams. In the present study, the association between a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; AB604331, g.420 C>A) in the cholecystokinin type A receptor gene and growth traits in Amakusa Daioh cross chi...
