Research note: A low-density SNP genotyping panel for Chinese native chickens by Jie Wang, Siyuan Xing, Yan Zhou, Jie Liu, Yan Sun, Qiuxia Lei, Haixia Han, Wei Liu, Dapeng Li, Fuwei Li, Dingguo Cao

“…Additionally, the 11K panel was applied to a genomic prediction of Wenshang Barred chickens, the predictive ability and prediction accuracy between the WGS and chip dataset non-significantly differed. Therefore, the newly developed chicken low-density SNP is efficient, cost-effective, and well-suited for application in local Chinese chickens, which can accelerate chicken breeding improvements and enhance conservation efforts.…”
