Transcriptome-wide investigation of genomic imprinting in chicken
Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic mechanism by which alleles of some specific genes are
expressed in a parent-of-origin manner. It has been observed in mammals and marsupials …

Different breeds, different blood: cytometric analysis of whole blood cellular composition in chicken breeds
While haematological variation is well known in birds, variation in avian breeds (distinct
morphotypes of the same species) remains unexplored. Poultry breeds, in particular, may …

The red jungle fowl leukocyte receptor complex contains a large, highly diverse number of chicken immunoglobulin-like receptor (CHIR) genes
KM Lochner, BC Viertlboeck, TW Göbel - Molecular Immunology, 2010 - Elsevier
The chicken Ig-like receptor (CHIR) gene family is located on microchromosome 31, the
orthologous region to the mammalian leukocyte receptor complex. CHIR are equally related …
