Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of poultry breeding, and in particular to a breeding method for Fengxiang Ma chicken. Background Art
[0002] Southern my country, especially the Guangdong and Guangxi regions, values the color, aroma, and flavor of chicken. Thousands of years of culinary tradition have shaped a unique culture of chicken consumption. Currently, the main broiler breeds produced in China are fast-growing broilers, medium-growing broilers, and premium-quality broilers. Fast-growing broilers are primarily imported white-feathered broilers, while medium-growing and premium-quality broilers are primarily high-quality breeds developed by Chinese broiler breeding companies through crossbreeding of new and local varieties.
[0003] Guangxi boasts a long history of breeding high-quality local chicken breeds. Through both natural and artificial selection, a diverse and distinctive breed of chicken has emerged, forming a vital gene pool for high-quality local chickens in my country. Currently, three-yellow chickens and skewered chickens dominate the domestic market, with an annual commercial supply exceeding one billion. Changing market demands have led to higher quality skewered chickens. The current plethora of skewered and yellow chicken varieties creates intense market competition, making selection difficult for customers. Standardized cuisines lack universal applicability, and chicken ingredients, inaccurately targeted by regional and consumer preferences, lead to waste. Summary of the Invention

[0025] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the ancestral stock cultivation stages in this application;
[0026] Figure 2 This is the family and product generation stage in this application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The method provided in this application is used to breed Fengxiang Ma chicken. The following examples describe the method in detail:
[0028] The cultivation process in this application can be divided into the ancestral stock cultivation stage and the family synthesis stage. The cultivation process is described below:
[0029] The breeding process needs to be divided into two parts, the grandparent stock breeding stage and the family synthesis stage.
[0030] First, the genetic symbols involved in this application are explained:
[0031] ♀——Maternal parent
[0032] ♂——male parent
[0033] ×——Hybridization
[0034] k——Fast Feather Gene
[0035] S——Silver Feather Gene
[0036] s——Golden Feather Gene
[0037] Foot color - shin color
[0038] Rice Flower Feathers - The rice flower feathers in this application are similar in color to the feathers of Guangdong Rice Flower Chicken, Colorful Phoenix Chicken, and Longsheng Phoenix Chicken hens. The color is slightly darker and slightly more hempy than the back feathers of Guangdong Rice Flower Chicken and Colorful Phoenix Chicken hens, and the chest hair is red. The breast hair of Rice Flower Chicken and Colorful Phoenix Chicken is mostly white, slightly lighter than the colorful feathers of Longsheng Phoenix Chicken. The chest hair of the colorful feather chickens in Longsheng Phoenix Chicken is mostly black.
[0039] Mung bean feet - In this application, mung bean feet are also called mung bean shanks. The color of the shanks is between light green and dark yellow. The outer shanks are the color of mung beans. After slaughter, the inner shanks are the color of the green shanks. The skin is slightly yellower than that of the green shank chicken. This is defined as mung bean feet in this application.
[0040] Since the silver feather (deep red hemp feather) and golden feather (rice flower feather) genes are both located on the sex chromosomes, and the silver feather (S) is dominant to the golden feather (s), that is, using the principle of sex-linked inheritance, the female parent is selected from the strain with the dominant silver gene (S), and the male parent is selected from the strain with the recessive golden gene (s). After the two are hybridized, the first generation of male chicks have the silver feather gene (deep red hemp feather) and the female chicks have the golden feather gene (rice flower feather). As soon as the chicks hatch, the gender can be identified by the color of the feathers, which is clear at a glance and more convenient than using fast and slow feathers to identify the gender.
[0041] Reference for the grandparent stock cultivation stage Figure 1
[0042] Family and commodity generation stage reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 The C and D series of green bean feet are listed, and the other series of feet A and B, E and F are listed in a similar way;
[0043] Figure 1and Figure 2 Among them, the commercial version is all mung bean feet, the roosters in this expression are all dark red hemp feathers, and the hens are hemp feathers and rice flower feathers respectively.
[0044] The present application provides a method for breeding Fengxiang Ma chicken, comprising:
[0045] 101. The F1 generation was obtained by hybridizing Guangxi Longsheng Feng chicken as the male parent and Guangdong Qingyuan Ma chicken as the female parent.
[0046] 102. From the F1 generation, select a rooster with yellow and white feet as the male parent, and a hen with green feet or green feet as the female parent, and mate them to obtain the F2 generation;
[0047] 103. Conduct cross-crossing and closed breeding of male and female individuals of the Green-legged Ma-feathered Chicken, Green-legged Rice-feathered Chicken, Mung-bean-legged Ma-feathered Chicken, Mung-bean-legged Rice-feathered Chicken, Yellow-legged Ma-feathered Chicken, and Yellow-legged Rice-feathered Chicken from the F2 generation, and continuously select and breed for more than five generations to obtain a new breed of Ma-feathered chicken with a purity exceeding 90%, thereby obtaining the Fengxiang Ma-feathered Chicken A line, Fengxiang Ma-feathered Chicken B line, Fengxiang Ma-feathered Chicken C line, Fengxiang Ma-feathered Chicken D line, Fengxiang Ma-feathered Chicken E line, and Fengxiang Ma-feathered Chicken F line;
[0048] 104. Group the A and B line male parents of Fengxiang Silkie chicken, the C and D line male parents, and the E and F line male parents by different feather colors and the same foot color; then crossbreed them with Guangdong Qingyuan Silkie chicken to obtain the A1, B1, C1, D1, E1, and F1 female parents of the first generation;
[0049] 105. Directed cross-hybridization is carried out on the male parents of the A and B lines of Fengxiang Ma chicken, the male parents of the C and D lines, the male parents of the E and F lines, and the female parents of the offspring generation of Fengxiang Ma chicken to obtain multiple single-matched and double-matched Fengxiang Ma chicken commercial chicks. The chicken feet of the Fengxiang Ma chicken commercial chicks are matched with three or more different foot colors, namely green feet, mung bean feet and yellow feet.
[0050] Furthermore, a specific method for obtaining commercial Fengxiang Ma chicken chicks can be to conduct directed cross-hybridization on the Fengxiang Ma chicken B series male parent and the Fengxiang Ma chicken first generation A1 female parent, the Fengxiang Ma chicken A series male parent and the Fengxiang Ma chicken first generation B1 female parent, the Fengxiang Ma chicken C series male parent and the Fengxiang Ma chicken first generation D1 female parent, the Fengxiang Ma chicken D series male parent and the Fengxiang Ma chicken first generation C1 female parent, the Fengxiang Ma chicken E series male parent and the Fengxiang Ma chicken first generation F1 female parent, and the Fengxiang Ma chicken F series male parent and the Fengxiang Ma chicken first generation E1 female parent, respectively, to obtain multiple single-matched and double-matched Fengxiang Ma chicken commercial generation chicks; among them, the chicken feet of the Fengxiang Ma chicken commercial generation chicks are matched with three or more different foot colors, namely green feet, mung bean feet and yellow feet.
[0051] All commercial roosters in this application feature a single, dark red hemp feather. The single-colored roosters have feathers similar to those of Qingyuan chickens, but slightly darker. The hemp feathers of all matching hens are similar to those of Qingyuan chickens, but slightly darker. The rice-colored feathers of Longshengfeng chickens are similar to the flowered feathers of Longshengfeng chickens, but slightly lighter. The double-colored feathers are a combination of hemp and rice-colored feathers. The proportions of different feather colors in commercial roosters and hens can be customized based on customer market needs. The matching combination can range from 0% to 100% for ACE and BDF lines.
[0052] The following are examples:
[0053] Example 1: Directed cross-hybridization is carried out on the male parents of the Fengxiang Ma chicken line A and line B with the female parents of the off-generation Fengxiang Ma chicken line A1 and B1 to obtain green-footed single-matched and double-matched Fengxiang Ma chicken chicks, wherein the roosters of the green-footed Fengxiang Ma chicken chicks obtained have single feathers of dark red hemp feathers, and the hens have hemp feathers and rice flower feathers respectively.
[0054] Example 2: Directed cross-hybridization of the Fengxiang Ma Chicken C and D lines male parents with the Fengxiang Ma Chicken offspring C1 and D1 female parents was carried out to obtain single-matched and double-matched Mung Bean Foot Fengxiang Ma Chicken chicks, wherein the roosters of the obtained Mung Bean Foot Fengxiang Ma Chicken chicks have single feathers of dark red hemp feathers, and the hens have hemp feathers and rice flower feathers respectively.
[0055] Example 3: Commercial-generation yellow-legged Fengxiang Ma chicken chicks can be directly obtained by hybridizing the F-line yellow-legged rice-flowered rooster with the pure-line Qingyuan Ma chicken. The commercial-generation yellow-legged Fengxiang Ma chicken chicks obtained by the present invention have single-feather dark red hemp feathers for the roosters, and single-feather rice-flowered feathers for the hens.
[0056] This embodiment may also include hybridization of other lines, such as hybridization of C1 and D lines, and A1 and B lines.
[0057] The method provided by the present application solves the problem of regional differences in foot color selection between yellow-footed and green-footed chickens, and obtains multiple single-matched and double-matched new varieties of Fengxiang hemp chicken commercial chicks, wherein the chicken foot colors of the Fengxiang hemp chicken commercial chicks are matched with more than three different foot colors, namely green feet, mung bean feet and yellow feet. Through this method, commercial male and female chickens can be customized in foot color and proportion of different feather colors according to customer market demand, and are more adaptable to market demand. In addition, they grow faster than Longsheng Feng chickens, have better precocity, more consistent crest formation, well-developed breast and leg muscles, and have greatly improved skin and meat color compared to Longsheng Feng chickens. The chicken flavor and nutrition are close to those of the original Qingyuan chicken, while maintaining some of the appearance characteristics of Longsheng Feng chickens and Qingyuan chickens. Some individuals have foot hair, and the mung bean-footed Fengxiang hemp chickens have green feet and yellow skin after slaughter. This variety is more extensive and versatile in terms of utilization value in the broiler food market.
