  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Birds were Ningdu Sanhuang chickens.
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:Birds were genotyped for eight SNPs in six candidate genes for age at first egg, as well as 12 markers in a previously identified QTL region on chromosome Z. Association between marker genotypes and age at first egg was analyzed.
    Analysis:The general linear model was used.
    Software:SAS
