Abstract:
Three F2 families have been established for QTL mapping by crossing genetically divergent Wild boar, Meishan and Pietrain pigs. More than 900 F2 animals are typed for a large number of marker loci and are recorded for over 100 quantitative traits. In a first analysis QTLs on chromosome 6 have been mapped in the region of the ryanodine receptor gene. Also several traits were significantly associated with different GH haplotyes.
