  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:In the spring of 1998, male calves were identified, and calf birth weights at or near birth, as well as birth date, were recorded by Beefbooster, Inc., the company responsible for breeding the cattle.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:The traits analyzed included body weight, preweaning ADG and postweaning ADG on feed.
    Analysis:One hundred seventy-six calves and their 12 sires of the M1 line were genotyped using 71 genetic markers. The GLM procedure was used to test the association between a given haplotype and the various growth traits.
