The age of onset of sexual maturity is an important reproductive trait in chickens.In this study, we explored candidate genes associated with sexual maturity and ovary development in chickens.We performed DGE RNA-sequencing analyses of ovaries of pre-laying (P-F-O1, L-F-O1) and laying (P-F-O2, L-F-O2) hens of two sub-breeds of Ningdu Yellow chicken
It has long been recognized that histological changes observed in aging muscle suggest that denervation contributes to muscle deterioration and that disuse accelerates the process while running activity, sustained for decades, protects against age-related loss of motor units.Here we show at the histological level that lifelong increased physical ac
As one of the most important limiting factors of grassland productivity, drought is predicted to increase in intensity and frequency.Greenhouse studies suggest that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can improve plant drought resistance.However, whether AMF can improve plant drought resistance in field conditions and whether the effects of AMF on d
Although large amounts of data are now available to companies, mere possession of these data is not sufficient, and for better business decisions, it is necessary to perform thorough data analysis.Nowadays, social networks services (SNS) have become important data sources.The rapid growth of SNS has led to their wide use in various research trends
