Genome-wide association study of molecular markers related to keel length in a specialized strain of yellow feathered broilers.
Article in Poultry science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Keel length is a key body size indicator, which has an important impact on the overall growth performance, bone health, and production performance of poultry. In the process of selecting crossed strains for yellow feathered broiler chickens, it is generally necessary to select keel length, but there is little research on keel length development. Therefore, resequencing and GWAS was employed to obtain SNP molecular markers associated with keel length in a specialized Yellow-feathered broiler line. We identified 10 SNPs that were potentially significantly correlated with keel length for the first time located at 9 genes, including ATP7B, CST3, OTOP1, CRMP1, SLC12A1, COPS2, FAM227B, IFT140, APLP2. SNP2 and SNP3 loci were in a strongly linked state (D ' value=1), the other 8 SNP loci were not in a strongly linked state (D 'value<1). The association analysis between single SNP marker and keel length traits showed that TT and CT at SNP1 (rs315701680), GG at SNP2 (rs738740137), AA at SNP3 (rs317223723), AA at SNP4 (rs732443622), GG at SNP5(rs315667756), CC at SNP6 (rs314381113), GG at SNP7 (rs732811384), TT at SNP8 (rs314197610), CC and TC at SNP9 (rs13782000), TT and GT at SNP10 (rs737401141) genotypes were all the dominant genotypes for keel length. The strong linkage between SNP2 and SNP3 resulted in two haplotypes H1 (AG) and H2 (GA), respectively. The H1H1 haplotype (GGAA) produced by SNP2 and SNP3 linkage was the dominant genotype for keel length. The SNP molecular markers and dominant genotypes at SNP1-SNP10 loci identified in this study may be used to improve the accuracy and genetic progress of keel length selection. Meanwhile, candidate genes potentially significantly related to keel length will lay the foundation for genetic selection of keel length and cultivation of high-quality yellow feathered broilers in the future.
