Some of the genetic differences that have arisen between domesticated chickens and their wild ancestors, the red junglefowl, are linked to epigenetic changes, according to a new study published in Nature Ecology & Evolution. Scientists at Linköping University in Sweden have discovered a small number of “hotspots” in the DNA that control epigenetic changes at hundreds of other locations throughout the genome.
Humans started to domesticate certain wild animals, including chickens, several tho…
