Unlocking growth potential in Wenchang chickens: A 21 K genotyping array for trait-associated structural variations.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In recent years, the poultry industry has embraced genome-wide assisted breeding techniques for broiler production, focusing primarily on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). However, the potential of genomic structural variations (SVs) in broiler traits remains largely unexplored due to cost and technology limitations. We developed a new chicken 21 K SV genotyping array and assessed its performance on 303 Wenchang chickens. Our evaluation showed a 99.20 % call rate with 57.13 % polymorphism across all microarray loci that identified SVs within the Wenchang chicken population. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of these SVs identified five significant variants associated with economically important traits, along with growth and development-related candidate genes including PLXAN4, ACBD3, and RNASET2. These findings demonstrate the value of SV-based approaches for improving genetic selection methods and enhancing productivity in poultry breeding programs. Our results show that high-quality 21 K SV genotyping arrays have significant potential for poultry breeding applications.
