In the present study, quantitative trait loci (QTLs) analysis was performed to identify the chromosomal positions of growth and carcass-related trait QTLs using 319 F<sub>2</sub> chickens obtained from intercrosses of an Oh-Shamo male and four White Plymouth Rock females. Body weight was measured weekly until the birds were 7 weeks old. Carcass-related traits were also measured at this timepoint. A genetic linkage map was constructed using 545 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers that we ...[more]
