Bidirectional Selection for Body Weight on Standing Genetic Variation in a Chicken Model
Experimental populations of model organisms provide valuable opportunities to unravel the genomic impact of selection in a controlled system. The Virginia body weight chicken lines represent a unique resource to investigate signatures of selection in a system where long-term, single-trait, bidirecti...
