| Abstract |
The aim of the study was to determine the association of chicken growth hormones (cGH) with growth performance in Thai broiler. The hybrid crossbred from commercial PS broiler with four Thai synthetic breeds; Kaen Thong (KT), Khai Mook Esarn (KM), Soi Nin (SN), and Soi Pet (SP) were established for a purpose of developing a suitable terminal breeding program for Thai broilers. A total of 408 samples were collected from four Thai broiler lines at 8 weeks of age. Samples were genotyped using PCR-RFLP method. The cGH was associated with body weight at hatching; at 4, 6, 8, 10 weeks of age and with average daily gain; during 0-6, 0-8, and 0-10 weeks of age in PS x KM chickens. For PS x KT populations, cGH showed only significant association with body weight at hatching.
According to the results, cGH gene may be used as a candidate gene, to improve growth traits of Thai broilers. |
