Dynamics of Adaptive Alleles in Divergently Selected Body Weight Lines of Chickens
By studying genomic changes over time in populations subjected to strong artificial directional selection, we can gain insights to the dynamics of beneficial alleles originating from the founder population or emerging as novel mutations undergoing ongoing selection. The Virginia lines are a chicken...
