Integrated metabolome and transcriptome analysis reveals key genes and pathways associated with egg yolk percentage in chicken by Wen Li, Yuxing Luo, Shoujia Zhu, Mengyuan Wang, Xuli Zhao, Zhonghua Ning

“…Moreover, integrated analysis highlighted key metabolites and genes potentially regulating yolk deposition, including 7,8-dihydroneopterin and Pg 38:4 in the liver (related to immune modulation and lipid metabolism, respectively), thalsimine in the ovary, as well as DL-glutamine in the magnum, all of which may be crucial for maintaining metabolic homeostasis and supporting egg formation. Collectively, these findings deepen our understanding of how distinct molecular and metabolic pathways in the liver, ovary, and magnum orchestrate yolk proportion and deposition. …”
