  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Two genetically different outcross broiler dam lines from the White Plymouth Rock breed were chosen as the foundation of the experimental population. Founder chickens, parents, offspring, and grandoffspring are indicated as (G) 0, 1, 2, and 3.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:The G1 chickens were mated to produce G2 full sibs. The G2 chickens were mated wtih several G2 chickens from different families to produce G3 chickens. The G3 offspring, therefore, are mostly half-sibs with a small number of full-sibs.
    Analysis:Traits measured were BW23, BW48, and FIFA. Within each hatch, observations deviating more than 3 SD from the mean of that hatch, were considered the result of measurement errors and therefore were excluded from the analysis.
