The genetic regulation of size variation in the transcriptome of the cerebrum in the chicken and its role in domestication and brain size evolution
Abstract Background Large difference in cerebrum size exist between avian species and populations of the same species and is believed to reflect differences in processing power, i.e. in the speed and efficiency of processing information in this brain region. During domestication chickens developed a...
