Nutrient sources differ in the fertilised eggs of two divergent broiler lines selected for meat ultimate pH
Abstract The pHu+ and pHu− lines, which were selected based on the ultimate pH (pHu) of the breast muscle, represent a unique model to study the genetic and physiological controls of muscle energy store in relation with meat quality in chicken. Indeed, pHu+ and pHu− chicks show differences in protei...
