  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Birds were from a Cobb Vantress broiler dam line.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:A two-generation, half-sib design was used. Birds were genotyped for 15 microsatellite markers on 3 chromosomes and analyzed for body weight and conformation score.
    Analysis:A regression model was employed.
    Software:QTL Express, ASREML
