QTL Experiment in Brief |
Animals: | Animals were from a Berkshire x Yorkshire cross. |
Breeds associated:
n/a
|
Design: | Animals were genotyped for a number of microsatellite markers in the region of the calpastatin gene on chromosome 2, and meat quality measures were assessed. |
Analysis: | Calpastatin haplotypes were constructed and used for association analyses with meat quality traits. |
Software: | SAS, CRI-MAP |
