  •  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
