“…The finding of a low proportion of white skin color in this recent study indicated that there was a small frequency for the dominant allele. In addition, skin color is a genetic trait related to carotenoid pigments and is also related to the type of nutrition, adaptive fitness, and health conditions (Lalhlimpuia et al, 2021). The high frequency of yellow color in this study suggested that the availability of feed sources was almost uniform in the rearing system besides breeder selection practiced towards specific characters related to fighting cocks.…”

“…The pigmentation of non-feathered or plumage tissue, in this case, is body skin and shank involving carotenoids and melanin which are responsible for yellow and black color respectively (Gowda et al, 2020). The white color of chicken skin is carried by the dominant allele while the yellow color is homozygous for the recessive allele (Lalhlimpuia et al, 2021). The finding of a low proportion of white skin color in this recent study indicated that there was a small frequency for the dominant allele.…”

“…West Java, has single comb dominantly. The majority of single-combed local chicken was also found in Saral village of Chhajjian valley, Haripur district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, a province in Pakistan, by 92.50 % (Bibi et al, 2021), in "Zoar" -chicken native to Mizoram, Indiaby 74.63 % (Lalhlimpuia et al, 2021), and even in Blackbone chicken -a native to Thailand -by 100 % (Buranawit et al, 2016). The type of combs in chicken is supposedly related to climate adaptability; for instance, single comb complies with warm temperature.…”

Morphometric Diversity and Genetic Relationship of “Bangkok” Chicken (Thai Game Fowl) in East Java, Indonesia

Commercial chickens that were selected for both meat and egg production were domesticated from the descendants of red junglefowl (Gallus gallus) species that have been widely spreading in Asia, including Indonesia. There were an estimated 32 strains of local chicken in Indonesia with high morphological diversity. The one of contributors to the diversity of Indonesian local chicken is called "Bangkok" chicken. As a reference to the name of the chicken, it is a suspected descendent of Thai game fowl (Gallus gallus domesticus Linnaeus, 1758) which was introduced in Thailand region many years ago. The objective of this study was to explore the existence of this chicken related to the genetic relationship with the Indonesian local chicken. This study was conducted in East Java Province which covered sample areas Banyuwangi, Pasuruan, and Madiun Regencies. The materials were "Bangkok" chicken offspring with a total of 450 birds. The observed variables consisted of qualitative and quantitative morphological characters, both male and female of adult chickens (1 yr to 1.5 yr old). The highest frequency of the comb shape was Single comb (36.9 %) and the lowest was Rose shape (11.8 %). While the highest frequency of shank colour was blackish-yellow (45.6 %) and the white color (3.6 %) was the lowest. The closest genetic distance base on morphometric diversity was between Pasuruan and Banyuwangi chickens (96.04). It was suspected due to the distance area between Pasuruan and Banyuwangi closer than Madiun and Banyuwangi, while Madiun and Pasuruan was the farthest genetic distance (682.03). Hence, the breeding program of Bangkok chicken based on the genetic distance needs further consideration to prevent inbreeding from occurring. Otherwise, the closest distance should be called for to upgrade the purity of the Bangkok chicken ancestor.

“…The local chicken 'Zo-ar' of Mizoram are medium sized birds (Lalhlimpuia, 2020) which are is scavenging in nature. They are generally reared for both games as well as table purpose by the local dwellers production (Mayengbam et al, 2017).…”

The study has been aimed to uncover the presence of polymorphism within the MTNR1C gene in native chicken population, ‘Zo-ar’ of the Mizoram state of India and to calculate the allelic and genotypic frequency to screen the variation present within the population with respect to the MTNR1C gene which is associated with various egg production traits in poultry. DNA extraction has been done with the help of blood samples collected from a total of 50 randomly chosen ‘Zo-ar’ chicken irrespective of age or sex from different regions of Mizoram. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay has been used for the detection of SNPs within the MTNR1C gene. Two genotypes AG (0.34) and GG (0.66) have been detected for the MTNR1C gene in the ‘Zo-ar’ chicken population while the AA (0.00) genotype was found to be completely absent in the present study. The G allele (0.83) was found to be predominantly present in the populations. Further, the population was found to be conforming to the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium with respect to the MTNR1C locus. From the present study the presence of variation within the MTNR1C locus was seen in the ‘Zo-ar’ chicken of Mizoram. This indicates the possibility of genetic improvement in egg production traits by using proper selection methods and formulating appropriate mating systems.

A total of twenty-six local chickens were representing shank feathering and non-feathering shank were used to sequence five QTLs, which associated with shank feather trait in chicken. The five location sequence results were shown polymorphism between the shank feathering and nonfeathering shank. All the candidate markers were differed between the shank feather and nonfeathering shank. The big distance was in (ADL221), and the less distance was in marker MCW315.
