Notes

Mapping and Phenotype information for this QTL, its variants and associated markers

J:32208

Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) effecting age specific body growth rates in mice were mapped using 535 F2 intercross mice from a (LG/J x SM/J)F1 cross. LG/J mice exhibit a large size at 60 days of age whereas SM/J exhibit a Small size. QTLs on 16 of 19 autosomes effective age specific growth was detected in a genome wide scan using microsatellite markers. QTL markers Bgeq9 and Bgeq10 are associated with early growth rate and mapped to mouse Chromosome 11 near D11Mit15 and D11Mit48 respectively. A QTL marker Bglq8 was associated with late growth near D11Mit62.

Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) effecting age specific body growth rates in mice were mapped in a previous experiment using 535 F2 intercross mice from a (LG/J x SM/J)F1 cross (See J:32208). Here an additional 510 F2 mice were analyzed. LG/J mice exhibit a large size at 60 days of age whereas SM/J exhibit a small size. QTL marker Bgeq9 was reaffirmed as mapping to mouse Chromosome 11. Another marker for early growth mapped more distal in the first cross using the 535 F2 mice from the first cross.
