Population genomic analysis identifies the complex structural variation at the fibromelanosis (FM) locus in chicken

Abstract Phenotypic diversity and its genetic basis are central questions in biology, with domesticated animals offering valuable insights due to their rapid evolution the last 10,000 years. In chickens, fibromelanosis (FM) is a striking pigmentation phenotype characterized by hyperpigmentation. A p...
