Gut Microbiome-Host Genetics Co-Evolution Shapes Adiposity by Modulating Energy and Lipid Metabolism in Selectively Bred Broiler Chickens

Gut Microbiome-Host Genetics Co-Evolution Shapes Adiposity by Modulating Energy and Lipid Metabolism in Selectively Bred Broiler Chickens

Optimizing fat deposition is crucial for improving chicken production and meat quality. This study investigated the interactive roles of host genetics and gut microbiome in regulating abdominal fat deposition in selectively bred broiler chicken lines. We compared the gut microbiome composition and h...
