Chicken Mx1 gene, as a positive antiviral gene, has been reported to provide resistance to several viruses especially avian influenza virus. In present research, the genotype frequency contributions of chicken Mx1 polymorphisms were characterized in five lowly selected as well as one moderately selected Sichuan native chicken populations and two highly selected commercial chicken breeds.
