Langya chickens, a Chinese indigenous breed, exhibit rich genetic resources but relatively low egg production performance. To investigate the genetic basis of egg production traits, we performed low-depth genome resequencing of 1,183 Langya hens and evaluated six phenotypic traits, including age at first egg (AFE), egg number at different laying stages-EN1 (from first egg to 26 weeks), EN2 (27-36 weeks), EN3 (37-43 weeks), total egg number at 43 weeks (E43), and maximal clutch length (MCL). Genetic parameter analysis revealed that MCL exhibited high heritability (0.42) and strong genetic correlations with both egg production and AFE, suggesting its potential as a more effective selection indicator for egg production traits. Genome-wide association studies identified a total of 245 SNPs associated with these traits. Notably, a 6.58 Mb region on chromosome 5 (GGA5, 40.03-46.61 Mb) was enriched for multiple traits and in strong linkage disequilibrium. Candidate genes in this core region, including TSHR, GTF2A1, DIO2, STON2, NRXN3, KCNK10, EML5, and FOXN3, were implicated in transcriptional regulation, thyroid hormone signaling, neuroendocrine modulation, and ovarian function. Additional trait-specific candidate genes, such as ATG2B for EN2, FMNL1 for EN1/EN2, TDP1 for E43, and TPMT for MCL, were also identified. Functional enrichment analyses highlighted pathways related to cellular processes, lipid metabolism, and signal transduction. These findings provide genomic insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying egg production traits and offer valuable candidate genes for marker-assisted breeding in Langya chickens.
