Screening for highly heterozygous chickens in outbred commercial broiler lines to increase detection power for mapping quantitative trait loci.

Poultry science - 1 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

Two commercial broiler lines were used in an experiment to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting disease resistance. Chickens from these lines were genotyped with 27 microsatellite markers to estimate heterozygosity and polymorphism information content (PIC), the probability that one parent is heterozygous at a marker locus and the other has a different genotype. Heterozygosity estimated from allelic...
