Abstract
Following on from the First Report on Chicken Genes and Chromosomes [Schmid et al., 2000] and the Second Report in 2005 [Schmid et al., 2005], we are pleased to publish this long-awaited Third Report on the latest developments in chicken genomics. The First Report highlighted the availability of genetic and physical maps, while the Second Report was published as the chicken genome sequence was released. This report comes at a time of huge technological advances (particularly in sequencing methodologies) which have allowed us to examine the chicken genome in detail not possible until now. This has also heralded an explosion in avian genomics, with the current availability of more than 48 bird genomes [Zhang G et al., 2014b; E?ry et al., 2015], with many more planned. The chicken has long been a model organism for genetic and developmental studies and now takes its place as a model genome, opening up the fields of phylogenetics and comparative genomics like never before. This report summarizes the current efforts to complete the gaps in the genome and describes the progress of genomic annotation, particularly with respect to noncoding RNAs and genetic variants. Reviews of comparative genomics, avian evolution and sex determination are also given. Transcriptomic case studies are described as are developments in epigenetic studies. We also report on the development of the National Avian Research Facility (http://www.narf.ac.uk/) which is home to various chicken resources including antibodies, chicken lines and transgenic protocols and which hosts information currently available on the sequenced avian genomes.
