Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence and comparative analysis of the chicken genome provide unique perspectives on vertebrate evolution

LaDeana W. Hillier, +174 more
- 09 Dec 2004 - 
TL;DR: A draft genome sequence of the red jungle fowl, Gallus gallus, provides a new perspective on vertebrate genome evolution, while also improving the annotation of mammalian genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation.

Guojie Zhang, +106 more
- 12 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: This work explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from 48 avian species representing all major extant clades to reveal that pan-avian genomic diversity covaries with adaptations to different lifestyles and convergent evolution of traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome of a songbird

Wesley C. Warren, +81 more
- 01 Apr 2010 - 
TL;DR: This work shows that song behaviour engages gene regulatory networks in the zebra finch brain, altering the expression of long non-coding RNAs, microRNAs, transcription factors and their targets and shows evidence for rapid molecular evolution in the songbird lineage of genes that are regulated during song experience.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-Platform Next-Generation Sequencing of the Domestic Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo): Genome Assembly and Analysis

Rami A. Dalloul, +72 more
- 07 Sep 2010 - 
TL;DR: The combined application of next-generation sequencing platforms has provided an economical approach to unlocking the potential of the turkey genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genetic variation map for chicken with 2.8 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms

Gane Ka-Shu Wong, +126 more
- 09 Dec 2004 - 
TL;DR: This map is based on a comparison of the sequences of three domestic chicken breeds with that of their wild ancestor, red jungle fowl, and indicates that at least 90% of the variant sites are true SNPs, and at least 70% are common SNPs that segregate in many domestic breeds.
