1. The Importance of the TSHR-gene in Domestic Chicken
Kandidat-uppsats, Biologi; Tekniska högskolanSammanfattning : Thyroid hormones are known to be important in several processes in chicken, such as growth, metabolism and reproductive system. In previous studies the thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR)-gene has been identified as a target for a selective sweep in commercial breeds of chicken such as broiler and White Leghorn.

2. A mutation in the TSHR gene - how does it affect social and fear related behaviours in chickens?
Master-uppsats, Biologi; Tekniska högskolanSammanfattning : Thyroid hormones are well known important to be in development and growth in birds and that signaling of thyrotropin (TSH) regulates the photo induced seasonal reproduction. A mutation at the thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) gene in domestic breeds of chicken could be involved in the release of the photoperiodic regulation. LÄS MER
3. Effects of a mutation on the TSHR gene on social and fear related behaviours in chickens.
Master-uppsats, Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiSammanfattning : It has been shown that thyroid hormones are important in development and growth in birds and further that thyrotropin (TSH) signaling regulated photoinduced seasonal reproduction. In addition to controlling the development of certain physiological traits, TSH can affect a wide range of phenotypes related to domestication such as behaviour, growth rate, more frequent reproductive cycle’s, pigmentation and also behaviour.
