Systematic identification of genes involved in divergent skeletal muscle growth rates of broiler and layer chickens

Systematic identification of genes involved in divergent skeletal muscle growth rates of broiler and layer chickens

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The genetic closeness and divergent muscle growth rates of broilers and layers make them great models for myogenesis study. In order to discover the molecular mechanisms determining the divergent muscle growth rates and muscle mass c...
