Project description:miRNA expression was analysed of samples derived from M. pectoralis of day 10 and day 13 chicken embryos and day 35 broiler after variation of incubation temperature
Project description:miRNA expression was analysed of samples derived from M. gastrognemius of day 10 and day 13 chicken embryos and day 35 broiler after variation of incubation temperature
Project description:MiRNAs regulate dynamic transcriptional changes of broiler embryos in response to modification of the incubation temperature (Musculus pectoralis)
Project description:We report the results of comparative transcriptional profiling in the pectoralis major muscle of a modern production broiler line (Ross 708) and a legacy broiler line inbred since the late 1940s (Illinois) focusing on metabolic differences and differences in myogenic growth regulators Differential gene expression analysis between Ross 708 and Illinois pectoralis major at two post-hatch time points (D6 and D21) that bracket critical inflection point in the allometric growth characteristics of the muscle
Project description:The experiment aimed at investigating the profiles of two histone marks (H3K27me3 and H3K4me3) in muscle tissues (Pectoralis major) of 35 days-old control (n=3) and thermally-manipulated (cyclic rise in egg incubation temperature of 1.5°C from days 7 to 16 of embryogenesis; n=3) chickens.
