Genomic analysis of Nigerian indigenous chickens reveals their genetic diversity and adaptation to heat-stress
Indigenous poultry breeds from Africa can survive in harsh tropical environments (such as long arid seasons, excessive rain and humidity, and extreme heat) and are resilient to disease challenges, but they are not productive compared to their commercial counterparts. Their adaptive characteristics a...
