Fujihara, N., Xi, Y.M. and Zhang, M.J. 2001. Genetic resource conservation in poultry reproduction. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 19: 33–47.
This review deals with most recently developed new research trends regarding a possible production of transgenic chicken and/or new techniques for producing new types of chicken strains using a unique cell type from developing gonads in chicken embryos. These two new tools provide novel ideas to create some sorts of promising avian species in the very near future in the world, especially in Asian countries.
