Researches in poultry: Mostly on experimental poultry populations. Only existing example on commercial level - French Dairy Cattle MAS programme. Two major designs are used The Daughter Design & The Granddaughter Design (Weller et.al., 1990) .
DAUGHTER DESIGN
Only a single family is shown, although in practice several families will be analysed jointly. The sire is assumed to be heterozygous for a QTL and a linked genetic marker. The two alleles of the marker locus are denoted M and m, and the two alleles of the QTL are denoted A and a. Alleles of maternal origin are denoted by question marks.
The grandsire is assumed to be heterozygous for a QTL and a linked genetic marker. Only a single family is shown. The two alleles of the marker locus are denoted as M and m, and the two alleles of the QTL are denoted A and a. Alleles of maternal origin are denoted by question marks. Genotypes are not listed for the granddaughters because they were not genotyped.

Red QTL lines represent for significant and light blue QTL lines for suggestive statistical evidence. Green dots represents the QTL peak position.
- Confidence intervals of many QTL are wide, possibly harbouring hundreds of genes. This is the major obstacle to finding causative mutations underlying any QTL identified.
