Isolation of blue-green eggshell pigmentation-related genes from Putian duck through RNA-seq
Abstract Background The diversity of avian eggshell colour plays important biological roles in ensuring successful reproduction. Eggshell colour is also an important trait in poultry, but the mechanisms underlying it are poorly understood in ducks. This study aimed to provide insights into the mecha...
