Quantitative trait loci for carcass, internal organ and meat quality traits on ...
Paixão, Débora M.; Silva Filho, Miguel I. da; Pereira, Mário S.; Lopes, Marcos S.; Barbosa, Leandro; Souza, Katiene Régia Silva; Lopes, Paulo S.The objective of this study was to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) on porcine chromosomes 16, 17 and 18 and to determine their association with carcass, organ and meat quality traits. An F2 population was produced by crossing two boars of the naturalized Brazilian Piau breed with 18 commercial females (Landrace x Large White x Pietrain). The population was genotyped for 11 microsatellite markers distributed o...

Hidalgo, André M.; Lopes, Paulo S.; Paixão, Débora M.; Silva, Fabyano F.; Bastiaansen, John W.M.; Paiva, Samuel R.; Faria, Danielle A.Fine mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) from previous linkage studies was performed on pig chromosomes 1, 4, 7, 8, 17, and X which were known to harbor QTL. Traits were divided into: growth performance, carcass, internal organs, cut yields, and meat quality. Fifty families were used of a F2 population produced by crossing local Brazilian Piau boars with commercial sows. The linkage map consisted of 237 SN...
