Whole-genome resequencing revealed genetic structure and specific breed identification loci of Ningxia Jingyuan chicken breed (Gallus gallus)
JY chickens exhibit relatively low genetic diversity and have distinct genetic backgrounds compared to other chicken breeds studied. These results help us understand the traits and utilization potential of JY chicken germplasm resources.
