This study sought to evaluate the genetic variations of ovocalyxin-32 gene and its association with egg quality traits in indigenous chicken populations, focusing on exons 1 6. Genotype frequencies SNPs (G/T A/G) within these were assessed for their conformity Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) across several strains. While most strains exhibited close adherence HWE expectations, some like light-brown gray indicated substantial discrepancies, particularly TT genotype, which points towards possible effects drift as well selection pressures. also analyzed influence such parameters. A thinner eggshell, reduced shell weight, decreased breaking strength associated G/T SNP exon 1, suggesting a likely negative effect T allele carriers. Conversely, AG genotype displayed better performance thickness, weight A/G whilst yolk height was best improved by AA compared strength. For instance, 6, enhanced among genotypes, while CC resulted eggshell characteristics enlarged yolks because C/T linked. Nonetheless, there no significant deviations from despite associations, suggested that breeds had stable background. Further, considering SNPs’ additive dominant this research, it account phenotypic expressions given located at 1. In contrast, observed under situated exon. Generally, therefore could be concluded specific may act good markers marker-assisted (MAS) can improve desired characteristics—such those quality—in breeds. demonstrated both dominance must taken into when performing analyses, thereby emphasizing complexity variation caused mechanisms native races.
