Notes

Candidate Genes

J:152405

A potential candidated gene mapping near Lmr21, Lmr21a and Lmr21b which mapped to D7Mit67 at 63.5 cM on Chromosome 7 of CcS11/Dem in this study is:

Il4ra, interleukin 4 receptor, alpha at 62.0 cM. [Table 9.]

Possibly related QTL controlling other infections and co-localizing with the Lmr21 QTL are:

Tria4, T cell receptor induced activation 4 at 46.0 cM;

Heal6, wound healing/regeneration 6 at 52.4 cM;

Tsiq1, T cell secretion of IL4 QTL 1 at 59.0 cM;

and Dice2, determination of interleukin 4 commitment 2 at 63.5 cM [Table 10.]
