QTL Experiment in Brief |
Animals: | Animals were Continental x British hybrid beef steers sired by Angus, Charolais, or University of Alberta Hybrid bulls. Dams were from three composite lines. |
Breeds associated:
n/a
|
Design: | Animals were genotyped for a total of 24 SNPs in NPY, GHR, GHRL, UCP2, UCP3, CRH, CART, MC4R, IGF2, POMC, and GH and analyzed for growth and carcass traits. |
Analysis: | A linear mixed model was used. |
Software: | SAS |
