  1. Positive values indicated that the genes were up-regulated when fast growing WRR chickens are compared with slow growing XH chickens.
  2. Negative values meant down-regulation when comparison between WRR and XH chickens are made, Data were significantly different (P > 0,05), and fold changes were not smaller than 2.
  3. “---” meant unknown.
