Comparison of the genome-wide DNA methylation profiles between fast-growing and slow-growing broilers.
INTRODUCTION: Growth traits are important in poultry production, however, little is known for its regulatory mechanism at epigenetic level. Therefore, in this study, we aim to compare DNA methylation profiles between fast- and slow-growing broilers in order to identify candidate genes for chicken gr...
