Recent advances in understanding genetic variants associated with growth, carcass and meat productivity traits in sheep (<i>Ovis aries</i>): an update
<p>Identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and candidate genes that affect growth intensity is a prerequisite for the marker-assisted selection of economically important traits. The number of QTL studies on sheep is relatively small in comparison to those on cattle and pigs. The curre...
