Comparative analysis of the growth differences between hybrid Ningdu Yellow chickens and their parentals.

ABSTRACT: Although the local high quality chicken breed in China has excellent flavor, its growth rate is inferior to that of foreign breeds. To improve the growth rate of local chicken breeds, it is crucial to study the mechanism of chicken muscle development. Herein, Ningdu Yellow chicken was used as the research object, and a new hybrid breed (W) was obtained by crossing the G, H and D lines, which combined the excellent physiological characteristics of its parents. Combined analysis of Ningdu Yellow chickens and their parents was carried out. Chickens from 105-day-old lines (W, G, H) were selected, and breast meat and serum were extracted for transcriptome sequencing and metabolome determination to study their growth differences.
