A genome-wide association study identified candidate genes associated with egg quality traits in Muscovy duck

Abstract Background Egg quality directly determines embryo development in meat-type poultry. However, it is difficult to directly select the egg quality of Muscovy duck. The genes and SNPs associated with egg quality screened by GWAS can be used for molecular breeding and accelerate the progress of...
