Endogenous retrovirus loci and induced changes in gene expression in Japanese indigenous chickens

Abstract When retroviruses infect germ cells and are transmitted to offspring, they become endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), whose insertions may influence the expression of nearby genes. In this study, we aimed to identify the genomic loci of ERVs in commercial broiler (Ross308), Tosa-Jidori, and Yak...
