• Adaptation to increased incidence of heat waves:– Genes that respond to heat stress will play a role
in adaptation to heat– Birds with better responses to heat will have
alleles that can confer adaptation to heat stress.• Mitigation:
– Mitigation will occur, in part, by improving feed efficiency.
– Identifying alleles that improve feed efficiency will mitigate impact of poultry industry on climate change

Use of Genomics to Address Climate Challenges
• Heat stress causes an estimated annual economic loss of $125-165 million in the U.S. poultry industry alone (St-Pierre et al. (2003)).
• There is potential to breed birds that are more resilient to increasing temperatures using genomics
• Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS): A technique used to analyze an associations between SNP and traits
• Rationale: Fayoumis underwent natural selection for heat tolerance. Inbreeding resulted in fixation of alleles at highest frequency. Commercial broilers selected for muscle mass.
• Objective: To determine genetic regions associated with response to heat stress in an AIL
• Goal: To breed chickens more robust in tolerating increased temperatures

Impact of Studies• 120 quantitative trait loci affecting response to heat stress mapped in Broilers.• Layer GWAS study complete- currently analyzing data.• African and European birds SNP mapped and compared to identify differences
that might provide clues to growth selection in different climates.• Over 1500 Transcriptome libraries collected from the majority of chicken
tissues under control and heat stress. Expression of over 800 genes modulated by heat stress.
• Largest impact on genes affecting chaperones, intestinal integrity, response to oxidative stress, cell cycle regulation, and immunity.
• Morphometric data from broilers indicates impact of heat stress on hyperplasia, not hypertrophy.
• Probiotic may be effective in providing resilience to acute heat stress.
