  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Animals were Angus, Charolais, or Alberta Hybrid crosses.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:A half-sib design was employed. Animals were genotyped for 100 microsatellite markers and 355 SNPs, and phenotype data was gathered for feed intake and feed efficiency.
    Analysis:A multiple-marker, interval mapping approach was used.
    Software:SAS, QTL Express, ASREML
