Application of alternative models to identify QTL for growth traits in an F<sub>2 </sub>Duroc x Pietrain pig resource population

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>A variety of analysis approaches have been applied to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) in experimental populations. The initial genome scan of our Duroc x Pietrain F<sub>2 </sub>resource population included 510 F<s...
