Project description:SPF leghorn chickens were infected with C. jejuni. The cecum were collected at 8h post infection for total RNA isolation. The significantly expressed microRNAs between infected and non-infected chickens were identified through Solexa sequencing technology.
Project description:We investigated the effects of heat stress on the liver transcriptome of 3wk-old chicks of a broiler line, the Fayoumi and an advanced intercross line (AIL). Transcriptome sequencing of 48 male chickens using Illumina HiSeq 2500 technology yielded an average of 3.4 million, 100-base -pair single-end, reads per sample.
