Chickens productivity selection affects immune system genes by А. М. Borodin, Ya. I. Alekseev, K. E. Gerasimov, N. V. Konovalova, E. V. Тerentjeva, D. N. Efimov, Zh. V. Emanuilova, L. I. Tuchemskiy, A. A. Komarov, V. I. Fisinin

“…The quantitative trait loci associated with the immune properties of chickens are of interest from the point of view of obtaining animals resistant to infectious agents using marker-assisted selection. In the process of selecting markers for genomic selection in broiler-type chickens, a non-standard genotype frequency of the RACK1 gene allele (SNP Gga_rs15788101) in the B5 line of broiler-type chicken cross Smena 8 was identified and it was suggested that this gene was involved in selection. …”
