Correlation between Microsatellite Loci and Onset of Lay and Egg Quality Traits in Chinese Silkies, Gallus gallus
This study investigated the correlation between microsatellite DNA polymorphic loci and egg laying traits in Chinese Silkies (Gallus gallus) to find possible candidate loci for marker-assisted selection. 180 experimental birds were used, which were offspring of a dam line and a sire line of Silkies...
