Effects of heat stress on growth metrics, carcass characteristics, telomere length, and gene expression in chickens

Effects of heat stress on growth metrics, carcass characteristics, telomere length, and gene expression in chickens

This study investigated the impact of heat stress (HS) on growth performance, carcass traits, telomere length (TL), and gene expression profiles in three chicken breeds with varying growth rates: slow-growing (SAGA), medium-growing (Sasso), and fast-growing (Cobb 500). Three hundred 14-day-old male...
