Project description:Here we tracked the development of the caecal microbiota in conventional White leghorn chickens of the PA2 line kept in isolators for 7 14 or 21 days using 16S sequencing.
Project description:This study aimed to compare the differences in plasma proteome between high- and low-body-weight broilers.Ten high-weight broiler chickens and ten low-weight broiler chickens were all 42 days old. The weight of the 10 high-weight chickens was greater than 3.1 kg, and the weight of the 10 low-weight chickens was less than 2.7 kg. Blood was collected from the wing vein of broilers, transferred to anticoagulation tubes, and centrifuged at 3,000 rpm for 10 minutes to separate plasma for proteome sequencing.

Project description:Gut Microbiota of Broiler Chickens
Project description:We recently performed global gene expression in the breast muscles of modern broiler and foundation line chickens. In this study, we have peformed miRNA expression analyses in the same tissues to identify muscle specific miRNAs that could be regulatory factors for muscle growth and feed efficiency in chickens.

Project description:Amylose amylopectin ratios in nitrogen-free diet influence the ileal microbiota of broiler chickens
Project description:Proteomic analysis was performed on the proximal tibia head from healhty and BCO-affected broiler (meat-type) chickens using Bruker Daltonics amaZon series Mass Spectrometer. This analysis was undertaken to identify key protein signature involved in BCO, a common cause of lameness.
Project description:We report the hepatic response of broiler chickens to an increase in stocking density. Here we compare gene expression profiles of liver cells via RNA-seq of broiler chicken raised under a high stocking density to broiler chickens raised under a lower stocking density with the objective of this study being to identify biomarkers of stress before the clinical and economic impacts are observed. We found that increasing stocking density seems to have a unique impact on hepatic gene expression prior to eliciting common clinical signs associated with stress. The cellular functions that are most affected appear to be those involved in steroidogenesis and cell movement/migration as identified by RNA-seq analysis of the liver transcriptome. These results could provide a baseline of information that future research to identify genes or molecules that could aid in the detection of negative effects of stressors such as stocking density prior to negative clinical and economic signs presenting themselves.
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.
