Background/Objectives: Finding single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and candidate genes that influence the expression of key traits is essential for genomic selection and helps improve the efficiency of poultry production. Here, we aimed to conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for egg production traits in an F(2) resource population of chickens (Gallus gallus). Methods: The examined F(2) population was produced by crossing two divergently selected breeds with contrasting phenotypes for egg performance traits, namely Russian White (of higher egg production) and Cornish White (of lower egg production). Sampled birds (n = 142) were genotyped using the Illumina Chicken 60K SNP iSelect BeadChip. Results: In the course of the GWAS analysis, we were able to clarify significant associations with phenotypic traits of interest and economic value by using 47,432 SNPs after the genotype dataset was filtered. At the threshold p < 1.06 × 10(-6), we found 23 prioritized candidate genes (PCGs) associated with egg weight at the age of 42-52 weeks (FGF14, GCK), duration of egg laying (CNTN4), egg laying cycle (SAMD12) and egg laying interval (PHF5A, AKR1B1, CALD1, ATP7B, PIK3R4, PTK2, PRKCE, FAT1, PCM1, CC2D2A, BMS1, SEMA6D, CDH13, SLIT3, ATP10B, ISCU, LRRC75A, LETM2, ANKRD24). Moreover, two SNPs were co-localized within the FGF14 gene. Conclusions: Based on our GWAS findings, the revealed SNPs and candidate genes can be used as genetic markers for egg weight and other performance characteristics in chickens to attain genetic enhancement in production and for further genomic selection.
