Efficiency of population structures for mapping of Mendelian and imprinted quantitative trait loci in outbred pigs using variance component methods

<p>Abstract</p> <p>In a simulation study different designs for a pure line pig population were compared for efficiency of mapping QTL using the variance component method. Phenotypes affected by a Mendelian QTL, a paternally expressed QTL, a maternally expressed QTL or by a QTL with...
