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

open access: yesBMC 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.

Mapping industrial poultry operations at scale with deep learning and aerial imagery [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) pose serious risks to air, water, and public health, but have proven to be challenging to regulate. The U.S. Government Accountability Office notes that a basic challenge is the lack of comprehensive location information on CAFOs.
