Identification of QTL regions and candidate genes for growth and feed efficiency in broilers
BACKGROUND: Feed accounts for about 70% of the total cost of poultry meat production. Residual feed intake (RFI) has become the preferred measure of feed efficiency because it is phenotypically independent of growth rate and body weight. In this study, our aim was to estimate genetic parameters and...
