Identification of quantitative trait loci associated with bone traits and body weight in an F2 resource population of chickens.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

Bone fractures at the end of lay are a significant problem in egg-laying strains of hens. The objective of the current study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with bone mineralization and strength in a chicken resource population. Layer (White Leghorn hens) and broiler (Cobb-Cobb roosters) lines were crossed to generate an F2 population of 508 hens over seven hatches, and 26 traits related...
