Chickens productivity selection affects immune system genes by А. М. Borodin, Ya. I. Alekseev, K. E. Gerasimov, N. V. Konovalova, E. V. Тerentjeva, D. N. Efimov, Zh. V. Emanuilova, L. I. Tuchemskiy, A. A. Komarov, V. I. Fisinin

“…It can be assumed that the fixation of the allele in the DMA gene (SNP Gga_rs15723) is associated with artificial or natural selection, consistent in broilers and layers. Changes in the loci Gga_rs16057130 and Gga_rs15788101 in the B5 line of the Smena 8 chickens are most likely associated with artificial selection of broiler productivity traits, which can subsequently lead to fixation of alleles at these loci. …”

Interaction of genetics risk score and fatty acids quality indices on healthy and unhealthy obesity phenotype by Niloufar Rasaei, Seyedeh Fatemeh Fatemi, Fatemeh Gholami, Mahsa Samadi, Mohammad Keshavarz Mohammadian, Elnaz Daneshzad, Khadijeh Mirzaei

“…Abstract Background The growth in obesity and rates of abdominal obesity in developing countries is due to the dietary transition, meaning a shift from traditional, fiber-rich diets to Westernized diets high in processed foods, sugars, and unhealthy fats. Environmental changes, such as improving the quality of dietary fat consumed, may be useful in preventing or mitigating the obesity or unhealthy obesity phenotype in individuals with a genetic predisposition, although this has not yet been confirmed. …”
