Genetic parameter estimation and molecular foundation of chicken egg-laying trait

ABSTRACT: The age of first egg (AFE) in chicken can affect early and even life-time egg production performance to some extent, and therefore is an important economic trait that affects production efficiency. To better understand the genetic patterns of AFE and other production traits including body...
