Effects of haplotypes on carcass traits

Trait P-value
BW (g) 0.0129
CW (g) 0.0478
SEP (%) < 0.0001
EP (%) 0.0044
BMW(g) 0.3699
BMP (%) < 0.0001
AFW (g) 0.5163
AFP (%) 0.4258
SFT(mm) 0.6733
LMW (g) 0.1998
LMP (%) < 0.0001

BW = body weight (g); CW = carcass weight (g); SEW = semi-eviscerated weight; EW = eviscerated weight; BMW = breast muscle weight (g); AFW = abdominal fat weight (g); SFT = skin fat thickness (mm); LMW = leg muscle weight (g); % indicates these traits relative to CW (g).
