Laying performance, immune response and antioxidant properties of hens segregating for naked neck and frizzle genes under low ambient temperature

Major genes could be introgressed into laying hens to attenuate heat stress. However, under cold and/or moderate ambient temperature, these genes might possess different behaviour. The main objective of this study was to evaluate laying performance, immune response, and antioxidant status of native...
