  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Lambs were from the Sheep CRC INF flock and the Sheep Genomics FMFS flock in Australia. All dams in the flocks had a Merino background. Sires were either from Terminal, Maternal (i.e., Border Leicester, Coopworth, and East Friesian), or Merino breeds.
     Breeds associated:
    Design:Animals were genotyped using the Illumina OvineSNP50 beadChip and analyzed for carcass and meat quality traits. A total of 48,599 SNPs were used for analysis.
    Analysis:Mixed models were used.
    Software:fastPHASE, Beagle, ASReml
