Effect of heat stress on growth and IGF-1 expression in synthetic broiler and native cross chicken
This study found that heat stress affected bird growth, gene expression, and serum <i>IGF-1</i> levels regardless of genotype. Slow-growing native cross chickens lost less weight and expressed less <i>IGF-1</i> under heat stress than fast-growing synthetic IBL-80 broilers.
