Lawal, R.A.Al-Atiyat, R.M.Aljumaah, R.S.Silva, P.Mwacharo, Joram M.Hanotte, Olivier H.[Whole-genome resequencing of red junglefowl and indigenous village chicken reveal new insights on the genome dynamics of the species]Whole-genome resequencing of red junglefowl and indigenous village chicken reveal new insights on the genome dynamics of the species

The red jungle fowl Gallus gallus is the main progenitor of domestic chicken, the commonest livestock species, outnumbering humans by an approximate ratio of six to one. The genetic control for production traits have been well studied in commercial chicken, but the selection pressures underlying ...

Chicken were possibly domesticated in South and Southeast Asia. They occur ubiquitously in East Africa where they show extensive phenotypic diversity. They appeared in the region relatively late, with the first undisputed evidence of domestic chicken in Sudan, around not, vert, similar 700 BC. We...


Mwacharo, Joram M.Bjornstad, G.Mobegi, V.Nomura, K.Hanada, H.Amano, T.Hanotte, Olivier H.Han Jianlin[Mitochondrial DNA reveals multiple introductions of domestic chicken in East Africa]Mitochondrial DNA reveals multiple introductions of domestic chicken in East Africa

Understanding the complex origin of domesticated populations is of vital importance for understanding, preserving and exploiting breed genetic diversity. Here, we aim to assess Asian contributions to European traditional breeds and western commercial chickens for mitochondrial genetic diversity. ...
