  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:789 Scottish Blackface sheep; 9 half-sibling families; some relationships between sires (3 sets of half-sibs (1,6,8), (4,5), (7,9)); animals born over 3 years
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:partial genome screen - 139 microsatellite markers on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 5, 14, 18, 20 and 21; confidence interval determined by bootstrap method (1,000 samples with replacement)
    Analysis:traits transformed prior to analysis: FEC - ln(trait+x), IgA - cube root ASREML to fit transformed traits
    Software:QTLExpress
