- Chickens have 39 pairs of chromosomes. Each pair of chromosomes is nearly identical in the genes that they carry and the pair of chromosomes are known as 'homologous chromosomes' or 'chromatids'. The exception to this rule is the sex-chromosomes, Z and W, where roosters have two Z chromosomes and hens have only one Z chromosome, plus one W chromosome. It is this difference in the sex chromosomes that result in sex-linked characteristics. Each chromosome contains many genes. The location or position along a chromosome where a gene may be found in its locus. "Alleles" are the alternate genes possible on a specific locus. Jacquie Jacob from the University of Kentucky will discuss the basics of poultry genetics. This information is essential if you are interested in breeding chickens.
very informative ma'am, thank you so much for this video giving lots of knowledge. I'm a gamefowl breeder from the Philippines - more power to you ma'am.

Informative - Basics of Poultry Genetics at a glance.👍👏🏼
I'll be anxiously awaiting November's talk. I'm always looking for ways to reduce my feed bill. Thank you for all the great content!
Good to see you again my friend.
Thank you so much great content!
this one was great thank you will there be an advanced genetics eventually?
Possibly
Thank you for this Dr. Jacquie... What can you say about the Naked Neck Gene and Frizzle gene in homozygous state? I've read somewhere that they are a lethal gene but I can't confirm them from a more reliable source... Hope you could help me with this... Thank you...
