Popis: |
A three-generation resource population was developed using two distinct Japanese quail strains, wild and white, to map quantitative trait loci underlying hatching weight and growth traits. Eight pairs of white and wild birds were crossed reciprocally and 34 F1 birds were produced. The F1 birds were intercrossed to generate 422 F2 offspring. All of the animals from three generations (472 birds) were genotyped for eight microsatellite markers on chromosome 1. Liveweight data from hatch to 5 weeks of age were collected on the F2 birds. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis was conducted applying the line-cross model and the least-squares interval mapping approach. The results indicated QTL affecting hatching weight and several growth related traits on chromosome 1. The F2 phenotypic variance explained by the detected additive QTL effects ranged from 1.0 to 3.7 for different traits. Modelling both additive and dominance QTL effects revealed additional QTL with significant dominance mode of action affecting pre-slaughter weight. However, there was no evidence for imprinting (parent-of-origin) effects. The variance due to the reciprocal cross effect ranged between 3.0 and 19.1% for weight at 1 week of age and hatching weight, respectively. |
