Abstract: In the present study, tissue samples were collected from the cerebrum, liver, and leg muscle of 8-day-old dwarf chicks that were exposed to a 3 h treatment of 28℃± 1℃ (control group) or 40℃± 1℃ (treatment group). Differentially expressed (DE) genes in these samples were detected using whole-genome microarray chips, and their functions were
