Identification of candidate genes responsible for innate fear behavior in the chicken

Takayuki Ochiai et al.

Summary: An integrated approach of transcriptome, haplotype frequency, and association analyses was used to identify candidate genes for the QTL affecting innate fear behavioral traits in chickens. The initial QTL interval on chromosome 4 contained 333 genes, but through further analysis, the number of candidate genes was reduced to 11, with NPY5R and LOC101749214 identified as strong candidates for innate fear behavior.

Differences in innate fear behaviour in native Japanese chickens

M. Terashima et al.

Summary: Comprehensive knowledge of innate fear in chickens has implications for understanding the adaptation and behavioural changes in native Japanese chickens. Through TI and OF tests, it was found that Oh-Shamo was the least sensitive breed to fear.

Integrating Whole-Genome Resequencing and RNA Sequencing Data Reveals Selective Sweeps and Differentially Expressed Genes Related to Nervous System Changes in Luxi Gamecocks

Jieke Zhou et al.

Summary: The Luxi gamecock has unique morphological and behavioral features due to artificial selection. This study identified 11 genes associated with nervous system development that play a crucial role in the selection process. The findings provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of gamecock aggression and support further research on animal and human aggression.

Polymorphism in the 5MODIFIER LETTER PRIME regulatory region of CTNNB1 gene and association with age at first lay and egg production

X. Han et al.

Summary: This study identified several SNPs in the 5MODIFIER LETTER PRIME regulatory region of the CTNNB1 gene in chickens and found significant associations between these SNPs and egg production traits. The study also revealed that certain haplotypes in this region were associated with the age of egg laying and the number of eggs laid at a specific time period. Furthermore, the study demonstrated changes in transcription factors and higher priming activity in a specific haplotype.

CRISPR-Cas9 editing of the arginine-vasopressin V1a receptor produces paradoxical changes in social behavior in Syrian hamsters

Jack H. Taylor et al.

Summary: Arginine-vasopressin and its V1a receptor play a critical role in regulating social behavior neural network. Gene edited hamsters with Avpr1a knockout showed unexpected increase in social communication behavior and elimination of gender differences in aggression towards conspecifics.
