“…TLR4 was associated with response to Salmonella in chickens (80,81). Associations with both SLC11A1 and TLR4 have subsequently been demonstrated across a wide range of Salmonella-response phenotypes and chicken populations (72)(73)(74)(75).…”

The chicken has led the way among agricultural animal species in infectious disease control and, in particular, selection for genetic resistance. The generation of the chicken genome sequence and the availability of other empowering tools and resources greatly enhance the ability to select for enhanced disease resistance via genetic markers and to understand more deeply the biological basis of host resistance. In this review, we discuss how integrated genomic approaches are able to identify specific genes and genetic markers associated with disease resistance, give select examples of contemporary work involving various genomic strategies to identify disease resistance genes, and finish by giving some final thoughts on predicted applications in the near future.

“…Genetic selection can be based on variation in genomic structural or expression-level variation (63,(68)(69)(70). However, studies to date suggest that many genes are associated with genetic control of response to Salmonella, and the effect of most individual genes is rather small (see [71][72][73][74][75].…”

“…Immune response traits have a generally moderate heritability 0.2 -0.3 (Gross et al, 1980;Cheng et al, 1991;Leitner et al, 1992;Pinard et al, 1992), indicating it is possible to perform genetic selection to obtain the resistant birds. Cole (1968) (Lamont, 2008;Calenge et al, 2010).…”
