Re-sequencing data for refining candidate genes and polymorphisms in QTL regions affecting adiposity in chicken.
In this study, we propose an approach aiming at fine-mapping adiposity QTL in chicken, integrating whole genome re-sequencing data. First, two QTL regions for adiposity were identified by performing a classical linkage analysis on 1362 offspring in 11 sire families obtained by crossing two meat-type...
