Embryonic thermal manipulation impacts the postnatal transcriptome response of heat-challenged Japanese quails

Abstract Background The thermal-manipulation (TM) during egg incubation is a cyclic exposure to hot or cold temperatures during embryogenesis that is associated to long-lasting effects on growth performance, physiology, metabolism and temperature tolerance in birds. An increase of the incubation tem...
