  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:A three-generation resource pedigree was generated after mating one red junglefowl male with 3 White Leghorn females.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:All F2 birds were weighed at 1, 8, 46, 112, and 200 days to obtain growth rates. Average egg weight and total egg production were measured individually at 29 weeks of age by collecting eggs for 1 week.
    Analysis:A set of 105 markers was selected for the genome scan. Linkage maps for 25 autosomal linkage groups were generated. The least-squares regression model used for QTL analysis included the fixed effects of sex and batch.
    Software:CRI-MAP Software

    Title:The twofold difference in adult size between the red junglefowl and WhiteLeghorn chickens is largely explained by a limited number of QTLs.
