Chicken adaptive response to low energy diet: main role of the hypothalamic lipid metabolism revealed by a phenotypic and multi-tissue transcriptomic…

AbstractBackgroundProduction conditions of layer chicken can vary in terms of temperature or diet energy content compared to the controlled environment where pure-bred selection is undertaken. The aim of this study was to better understand the long-term effects of a 15%-energy depleted diet on egg-production, energy homeostasis and metabolism via a multi-tissue transcriptomic analysis. Study was designed to compare effects of the nutritional intervention in two layer chicken lines divergently selected for residual feed intake.ResultsChicken adapted to the diet in terms of production by significantly increasing their feed intake and decreasing their body weight and body fat composition, whil…

Very few causal genes have been identified by quantitative trait loci (QTLs) mapping because of the large size ofQTLs, and most of them were identified thanks to functional links already known with the targeted phenotype.Here we propose to combine selection signature detection, SNP annotation, and expression analyses to identifycausal genes underlying QTLs. As a model, we chose experimental chicken lines divergently selected for onlyone trait, the abdominal fat weight, in which several QTLs were previously mapped. Using a new haplotypebasedstatistics exploiting the very high SNP density generated through whole genome re-sequencing, we found129 significant selective sweeps. Most of the QTLs …
Multidisciplinary approach to explore interactions in odor mixture perception
2023
Odors and aromas perceived in food and in the environment result from the processing of complex chemical mixtures of volatile compounds that should be efficiently processed by the olfactory system. It is known for decades that this processing generates perceptual interactions, such as masking, synergy, or perceptual blending, which contribute to elaborating a synthetic brain representation of the chemical information. Nevertheless, the perceptual processes underlying these interactions are still poorly known. In this project, we set out a multidisciplinary approach to identify the characteristics of odorants and olfactory receptors (ORs) that could support perceptual interactions. We hypoth…
