WGS dataset of Pakistani chicken breeds

The genomic DNA was extracted from the caecal samples collected from three chicken breeds, Broilers, White Layers, and Black Australorp. For Broiler and White Layer, three different farming setups were used on commercial scale: 1. controlled house / shed system; 2. open house / shed system; and 3. birds reared as antibiotic free control group. For Black Australorp breed, samples were collected from antibiotic free control group, free range rearing setup and from commercial open shed.
