Assessing the effects of rare alleles and linkage disequilibrium on estimates of genetic diversity in the chicken populations
Phenotypic diversity in poultry has been mainly driven by artificial selection and genetic drift. These led to the adaptation to the environment and the development of specific phenotypic traits of chickens in response to their economic use. This study evaluated genetic diversity within and between...
