Chromosomal Mapping and Candidate Gene Discovery of Chicken Developmental Mutants and Genome-Wide Variation Analysis of MHC Congenics

The chicken has been widely used in experimental research given its importance to agriculture and its utility as a model for vertebrate biology and biomedical pursuits for over 100 years. Herein we used advanced technologies to investigate the genomic characteristics of specialized chicken congenic genetic resources developed on a highly inbred…
