Transcriptional Insights into Key Genes and Pathways Underlying Muscovy Duck Subcutaneous Fat Deposition at Different Developmental Stages

Subcutaneous fat is a crucial trait for waterfowl, largely associated with meat quality and feed conversion rate. In this study, RNA-seq was used to identify differentially expressed genes of subcutaneous adipose tissue among three developmental stages (12, 35, and 66 weeks) in Muscovy duck. A total...
