Modeling highly pathogenic avian influenza transmission in wild birds and poultry in West Bengal, India. [PDF]

, 2013
Wild birds are suspected to have played a role in highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 outbreaks in West Bengal. Cluster analysis showed that H5N1 was introduced in West Bengal at least 3 times between 2008 and 2010.

Optimizing the breeding strategy in Vanaraja female parent line chicken by monitoring the genetic variability for the major performance traits [PDF]

Animal Bioscience
Objective Vanaraja is a highly successful backyard chicken variety developed by crossing males of Vanaraja male line (PD-1) with females of Vanaraja female line (PD-2). Vanaraja was improved over the generations through selection in parent lines.

Elucidation of the genetic determination of clutch traits in Chinese local chickens of the Laiwu Black breed

BMC Genomics, 2023
Background Egg laying rate (LR) is associated with a clutch, which is defined as consecutive days of oviposition. The clutch trait can be used as a selection indicator to improve egg production in poultry breeding.
