Mapping QTL for growth and muscling traits in three connected porcine F<sub>2</sub> crosses

Abstract: QTL experiments in pigs are often analysed separately, although similar or same founder breeds are frequently used to establish the experimental design. The aim of the present study was to jointly analyse three porcine F 2 -crosses for six growth and four muscling traits. The crosses were a Meishan × Pietrain cross, a Wild Boar × Pietrain cross, and a Wild Boar × Meishan cross. In some cases, same founder animals were used to establish the crosses. 966 F 2 -individuals were genotyped for 242 genetic markers (m… Show more
