  •  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
