Weighted gene co-expression network analysis identifies important modules and hub genes involved in the regulation of breast muscle yield in broilers

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Increasing breast meat production is one of the primary goals of the broiler industry. Over the past few decades, tremendous progress has been made in genetic selection and the identification of candidate genes for improving the breast muscle mass. However, the molecular network contributing to muscle production traits in chickens still needs to be further illuminated.
