title: Expression analysis of growth and energy regulation-associated genes in two divergent chicken strains.
abstract: We have studied differential expression of genes using cDNA arrays in the hypothalamic region of two divergent chicken lines, which differ in body weight and feeding behavior. Several transcripts from genes in metabolic networks as well as from retroviruses were differentially expressed.
