The genomic characteristics affect phenotypic diversity from the perspective of genetic improvement of economic traits

Summary: The genetic improvement of economic traits suggests that chicken is an excellent model for exploring the genetic changes and molecular mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity and artificial selection. Here, the sequencing data including 477 samples from 25 breeds worldwide were used to r...

description Summary: The genetic improvement of economic traits suggests that chicken is an excellent model for exploring the genetic changes and molecular mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity and artificial selection. Here, the sequencing data including 477 samples from 25 breeds worldwide were used to reveal the genomic patterns of chicken domestication. We analyzed 7.4 Tb clean data with 14.8× per individual to identify 23,504,766 SNPs, 3,289,782 InDels, and 27,027 SVs. The diversity analysis indicates that high-intensity artificial selection would accelerate population differentiation. We also found that the human-driven traits are controlled by polygenes and major genes, such as the primary candidates SOX5 and IGF1 for body size, and NEDD4 for sperm storage capacity. Our findings provide an important reference for understanding how genomic patterns shape phenotypes in livestock.
