  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Two half-sib families were developed using a Belgian Blue x MARC III sire and a Piedmontese x Angus sire.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:Offspring of the two sire were evaluated for growth and carcass traits.
    Analysis:Data were analyzed with a model that included the effects of sex, dam line, and days on feed and the conditional probability fo inheriting the inactive myostatin allele from the sire as covariates.
