CALM1 and DRD1 were two important genes for reproduction. In this study, the entire coding regions of both genes were sequenced and mutations were detected in Taihang chickens. The results showed that two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), g.44069941G > A in the CALM1 gene and g.10742639C > T in the DRD1 gene, were associated with egg-laying traits. g.10742639C > T is a synonymous mutation predicted to affect the secondary structure of mRNA. Therefore, these two mutations might be potential molecular markers for improving reproductive traits in Taihang chickens.
