QTL Experiment in Brief

Animals:

Pigs were from an F2 population derived from Piau sires and commercial line (Large White, Landrace, and Pietrain) dams.

Breeds associated:

Large white, Pietrain, Landrace

Design:

Animals were genotyped using a custom SNPChip with 384 markers selected based on previously identified QTL. A total of 237 SNPs were used for association analysis with carcass and meat quality traits. Meta-analysis was performed to compare the results with QTL reported previously.

Analysis:

Mixed models were used.

Software:

MetABEL in R, GWAF in R
