Detection of a Polymorphism Associated with Shank Length and Body Weight in Japanese Quail (Coturnix japonica) by AFLP

In this study, we attempted to use amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) in combination with selective genotyping to detect loci that affected shank length and body weight at 10 weeks of age in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica). A total of 88 primer pairs were used in AFLP analyses of 10 a...
