Genome re-sequencing to identify single nucleotide polymorphism markers for muscle color traits in broiler chickens

Objective Meat quality including muscle color in chickens is an important trait and continuous selective pressures for fast growth and high yield have negatively impacted this trait. This study was conducted to investigate genetic variations responsible for regulating muscle color. Methods Whole gen...
