Genome-Wide Egg Hunt: Unhiding Candidate Genes for Egg Component Traits in Layers of an F₂ Resource Population

Egg components, including weight of yolk, albumen, and eggshell, are economically important traits in poultry breeding and production, and we thus conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for them. We used an F₂ resource population of hens (<i>n</i> = 142) in different periods of...
