  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:588 free-living Soay sheep (island of St. Kilda, UK); maternal links assigned through field observation, paternal links through molcular analysis; half-sibships comprising 10+ animals and their common parents were genotyped; animals born over 23 year
     Breeds associated:
    n/a
    Design:whole genome scan using 247 microsatellites (covers 90% of the Soay genome with average inter-marker spacing of 15cM); phenotypic data collected 1988-2005; lambs (<4 months) and adults (>4 months) analysed separately
    Analysis:Strongyle FEC, coccidia FOC and ked count were transformed before analysis [Ln(trait+1)]; variance components estimated by restricted maximum likelihood procedure using ASReml
    Software:Loki
    Notes:See Overall et al (2005), Molecular Ecology 14:3383-3393 for information on St Kilda Soay sheep
