Résumé

La génomique de la volaille a bénéficié des avancements technologiques rapides acquis en génomique humaine et sur les organismes modèles. Certains outils et certains approches sont maintenant bien établis chez le poulet, y compris les cartes et marqueurs (génétiques comme physiques), mapping loci pour caractéres quantitatifs, mapping comparative, ressources expressed sequence tag et bacterial artificial chromosome, et mapping physique. De plus, la phase suivante de la découverte génétique, la génomique fonctionnelle, est en cours. Les progre`s dans le mapping de loci pour caracte`res quantitatifs de croissance et d'adiposité seront discutés pour illustrer ces nouvelles technologies et ces nouvelles approches dans l'étude de la génétique et de la physiologie avicole.
