  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:A single large family of 4 F0 Duroc sires and 16 F0 Pietrain dams (F0), 56 F1 and 954 F2 animals from Michigan State University pig resource population.
     Breeds associated:
    Design:A whole genome expression microarray and an F2 pig resource population to conduct a global eQTL analysis in loin muscle tissue, and compared results to previously inferred phenotypic QTL (pQTL) on the same population.
    Analysis:Linear mixed model was fit to normalized log intensity data on an oligonucleotide-by-oligonucleotide basis comparing eQTL to previously published pQTL. Given a particular eQTL region, delimited by a 5 cM interval to each side of the peak, we computed a p-value for observing (by chance) an overlap as long as the one observed in each eQTL/pQTL region.
