Generation of a Multi-Locus Chicken Introgression Line to Study the Effects of Genetic Interactions on Metabolic Phenotypes in Chickens
Most biological traits are regulated by a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. By intercrossing divergent lines, it is possible to identify individual and interacting QTL involved in the genetic architecture of these traits. When the loci have been mapped, alternative strateg...
