Experimental design. The experiment consisted of two in ovo delivery groups, a control group injected with saline, and a treatment group injected with 5 µL carvacrol. Solutions were injected into the amniotic fluid of fertile broiler eggs at embryonic day 17.5 and yolk sac (YS) tissue samples were collected at embryonic day 19.5. The YS transcriptomes of both treatments were sequenced using RNAseq and individual genes were compared. Created with BioRender.com
