  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Animals were from a White Duroc x Erhualian resource population and from outbred populations of seven breeds.
     Breeds associated:
    Design:Animals were genotyped for 6 microsatellites and 32 SNPs to refine a QTL region. PPARD was identified as a candidate gene in the region, and animals were genotyped for one SNP in PPARD and analyzed for ear size.
    Analysis:Standard association, marker-assisted association, and F-drop test were used.
    Software:SAS
