Telomere length and regulatory genes as novel stress biomarkers and their diversities in broiler chickens (gallus gallus domesticus) subjected to corticosterone feeding

This study was designed to characterize telomere length and its regulatory genes and to evaluate their potential as well-being biomarkers. Chickens were fed a diet containing corticosterone (CORT) for 4 weeks and performances, organ weight, plasma CORT levels, telomere lengths and regulatory genes w...
