Abstract
This study identified several key central feeding-related genes that are differentially expressed between low and high FE male and female quails which might explain the differences in feed intake/body weight gain observed between the two lines. Of particular interest, we provided novel insights into central AMPK-mTOR-ACC transcriptional differences between low and high FE quail which may open new research avenues on their roles in the regulation of energy balance and FE in poultry and livestock species.
