Chicken single-cell and spatial transcriptome atlas spans 36 organs and 157 cell types
Start here
A team led by Yu Jiang has published a chicken single-cell and spatial transcriptome atlas in Nature Communications, covering 36 organs and 157 cell types across the whole body. The study combines embryonic spatial transcriptomics with integrated single-cell data from chicken, duck, turtle and human to characterize which features of amniote immune cells are conserved and which are species-specific. According to the paper, the atlas provides theoretical and data support for disease-resistance breeding in poultry, basic immunology research, and zoonosis control. The published study is the current state of the event; how the resource is taken up in breeding and immunology applications is not yet covered.

Yu Jiang's team and colleagues published a chicken single-cell and spatial transcriptome atlas in Nature Communications, covering 36 organs and 157 cell types across the whole body. Combining embryonic spatial transcriptomics with integrated single-cell data from chicken, duck, turtle and human, the study characterizes conservation and species specificity in amniote immune cell evolution. According to the paper, the work provides theoretical and data support for disease-resistance breeding in poultry, basic immunology research, and zoonosis control.
