Joint multiple quantitative trait loci mapping for allometries of body compositions and metabolic traits to body weights in broiler

In order to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for allometries of body compositions and metabolic traits in chicken, we phenotypically characterize the allometric growths of multiple body components and metabolic traits relative to BWs using joint allometric scaling models and then establish random...
