Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor y (PPARy) is an important regulator of chicken preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation. In this study, polymorphisms were detected by DNA sequencing, PCR-RFLP and some other methods and three polymorphisms (g.-1784_-1768de117, c.-1241G>A and c.-75G>A) were found in the 5 flanking region of PPARy gene.Growth and body composition traits were measured in the 8th-10th generation populations of the Northeast Agricultural University broiler lines were divergently selected for abdominal fat content. Polymorphisms among individuals were screened in the above populations. The haplotype-based association analysis on growth and body composition traits was carried out. The association analysis showed that haplotypes based on three polymorphisms at 5 flanking region of PPARy gene were significantly associated with abdominal fat weight (AFW), abdominal fat percentage (AFP, AFW/BW,),liver weight (LW), liver weight percentage (LFP, LW/BW,), shank length (ShL), femur weight (FeW), keel length (KeL), and metatarsus circle (MeC) (P
