  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Birds were from a purebred brown egg layer line.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:Birds were genotyped using a 42k SNP chip. Association with egg size was analyzed for 24,425 markers.
    Analysis:Bayesian variable selection method Bayes-B was used. After identification of significant windows, candidate SNPs were verified using an animal model.
    Software:GENSEL, ASREML
