Project description:RNA-Seq of top and bottom groups for open field behavior in each sex of an F2 intercross population between Nagoya and White Leghorn breeds in chickens
Project description:To characterize breed-specific difference among four Korean native chicken breeds and White Leghorn, we measured their transcriptomes at liver tissue using Affymetrix Chicken gene 1.0 ST array platform.
Project description:White Leghorn SPF chickens were immunized with two doses of DNA vaccine, based on the hemagglutinin (HA) DNA from H5N1 virus, in comparison to the control group, which was administered an empty vector (pCI). Gene expression changes in the spleens of chickens were investigated at 7 day post booster dose.
