Quantitative trait loci affecting body weight and fatness from a mouse line selected for extreme high growth.
Quantitative trait loci affecting fatness in the chicken.
When the master reaches its fatness limit, we split it in half, making two independent master arrays.
Combined analyses of data from quantitative trait loci mapping studies : chromosome 4 effects on porcine growth and fatness.
Effects of thyroid hormone deficiency on selected mice then is whether the selected lines will still differ in growth or in fatness without these hormones.
Recent work has shed new light on the control of fatness.
The reduced belly width seems mainly to reflect a reduced fatness and a hypertrophied skeletal musculature, leading to a change in the abdominal shape.
We refer to the results of this line only for the comparative aspect of the side effects of this selection on fatness.
