Genome-wide association study of growth performance and immune response to Newcastle disease virus of indigenous chicken in Rwanda
A chicken genome has several regions with quantitative trait loci (QTLs). However, replication and confirmation of QTL effects are required particularly in African chicken populations. This study identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and putative genes responsible for body weight (BW) an...
