title: Model organism or animal sample from Anser cygnoides domesticus
organism: Anser cygnoides
description: In our lab, we statistically analyzed body composition traits and meat quality traits in the Sichuan white goose population. Moreover, we performed the whole genome re-sequencing for the 203 goose for the goose and all the SNPs or SVs in goose genome. Next, we performed GWAS of the traits to identify potential gene markers and/or important functional genes to promote accurate selection breeding and identify important candidate genes that influence traits. The result would be useful for understanding the molecular mechanisms of reproduction and for improving the traits in goose.
