Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the genetic biodiversity of chicken breeds, focusing on how it affects gene expression during early muscle development (myogenesis) and utilizes fractal analysis as a key methodology.
  • Two mathematical models were created to analyze gene expression profiles of seven key genes in eight different chicken breeds, leading to breed-specific gene expression coefficients and indexes.
  • The results suggest that fractal models can help explain genetic diversity in chickens, linking gene expression to growth rates and metabolic processes like nitric oxide oxidation.

Due to long-term domestication, breeding and divergent selection, a vast genetic diversity in poultry currently exists, with various breeds being characterized by unique phenotypic and genetic features. Assuming that differences between chicken breeds divergently selected for economically and culturally important traits manifest as early as possible in development and growth stages, we aimed to explore breed-specific patterns and interrelations of embryo myogenesis, nitric oxide (NO) metabolism and post-hatch growth rate (GR). These characteristics were explored in eight breeds of different utility types (meat-type, dual purpose, egg-type, game, and fancy) by incubating 70 fertile eggs per breed.
