Project description:The expression of genes were analysed in muscle of 18th day of embryonic stage between Aseel, an indigenous slow-growing chicken, and control broiler, a fast-growing broiler chicken line. The whole embryo was collected in TRIZOL and total RNA was isolated. The expression profile of gene was determined in 64k Agilent chicken microarray chip. The Cy3 dye was used for detection. The fold change of expression was analysed in Aseel as compared to broiler chicken line.
Project description:The expression of genes were analysed in 7th day of embryonic stage between Aseel, an indigenous slow-growing chicken, and control broiler, a fast-growing broiler chicken line. The whole embryo was collected in TRIZOL and total RNA was isolated. The expression profile of gene was determined in 64k Agilent chicken microarray chip. The Cy3 dye was used for detection. The fold change of expression was analysed in Aseel as compared to broiler chicken line.
Project description:Fold change of expression in Aseel (an indigenous chicken breed) as compared to broiler chicken in muscle of 18th day of embryonic stage
Project description:We characterized the seminal plasma proteome of eight Beijing-you (BJY) chickens, an indigenous chicken breed in China, differ in sperm motility.
Project description:Airway epithelial cells from 3 different breeds of chicken infected with Newcastle Disease virus were sequenced and compared to cells from uninfected control birds. The 3 breeds were an indigenous breed, commercial Rhode Island Reds and a hybrid breed (Kenbro).
Project description:CNV plays an important role in the chicken genomic studies,it is imperative need to investigate the extent and pattern of CNVs using array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) in chinese chicken breeds for future studies associating phenotype to genome architecture. we describe systematic and genome-wide analysis of CNVs loci in five Chinese indigenous chicken breeds were evaluated by aCGH. 5 Chinese native chicken were detected using ANKA broiler as reference.
Project description:Copy number variation profiles comparing control female Dehong chicken blood DNA with 3 different chicken breeds (white Leghorn, Cobb broiler, and Dou chicken) blood DNA. Each test breed had one male and one female sample, for a total of 6 test DNA samples. The goal is to determine the global copy number variation profiles between chicken breeds.
Project description:Salmonella being one of the major infectious diseases in poultry causes considerable economical losses in terms of mortality and morbidity especially in countries which lack effective vaccination programs. Salmonellosis is considered to be most important zoonotic disease which causes considerable foodborne illness that leads to enormous economic loses. To minimize such losses, enhancing disease resistance to different pathogens seems to be a promising strategy. The indigenous chicken, evolved through thousands of years of natural selection, are well adapted to the local climatic conditions with better resistance to diseases. In the present study we investigated liver and spleen transcriptome profile of indigenous (Kashmir faverolla) breed and commercial broiler poultry at day 5 post-inoculation with Salmonella typhimurium using RNA sequencing. The DEGs and pathways identified shall provide potential targets to enhance disease resistance in poultry through successful breeding programmes.
Project description:Adaptation to hypoxia is a complicated and important physiological course for organisms, but the genetic mechanism underlying the adaptation is not fully understood yet. Tibetan Chicken (T), an indigenous chicken breed in China which inhabit in high areas with an altitude above 2,900 meters. Shouguang Chicken(S) and Dwarf Recessive White Chicken (DRW), two lowland chicken breeds, were used as control groups. The heart was the first functional organ to develop during the embryonic development. Furthermore, the heart is an efficient energy converter utilizing the most appropriate fuel for a given environment. Therefore, GeneChip® Chicken Genome Array was employed to identify the differentially expressed genes in embryonic hearts of Tibetan Chicken and two lowland chicken breeds in both hypoxic and normoxic incubating environments with a genome wide profile. Keywords: stress response
