Abstract

In the present paper, we reviewed intergeneric hybridization between chicken and quail from four aspects, such as
morphology, molecular genetics, sex identification of earlier embryos and prospects, summarized the recent research
progress from the scholars at home or abroad, and aimed to attract more and more attention to intergeneric hybridization
between chicken and quail, offer more space and room for other researchers to consider and develop, and lay a
foundation for the exploitation, protection and utilization of China genetic resources.
