Body weight was recorded on each animal at approximately 7 (Weight2), 9 (Weight3) and 12 (Weight4) months post-hatching. Population-based association analysis was performed with program PLINK version 1.07 [22]. From 40 full-sib families each with ∼17 progeny, a sibling was randomly sampled from each family to generate a population-based sample of n = 40 unrelated individuals; we repeated the random sampling to develop three sets of unrelated individuals.

Markers were positioned on mitochondrial genome by BLASTing sequences flanking markers against a rainbow trout mitochondrial reference sequence [33].

SNPs minor allele frequency (MAF). 4SNP annotation; gene name and SNP location (ORF/5′UTR/3′UTR), SYN = Synonymous.
