Table 2. Growth traits of Zhikong scallops in a full-sib family with respect to genotypes at SNP c. 1815C>T in the Tgfbr1 gene.

Genotype N GF SL SH BW STW SMW*
CC 16 33.3 50.77±3.33a 55.74±3.37a 20.77±3.63 8.23±1.61 2.33±0.62a

N, number of scallops; GF, genotype frequency (%); SL, shell length (mm); SH, shell height (mm); BW, body weight (g); STW, soft tissue weight (g); SMW, striated muscle weight (g). The growth traits are given as the mean ± standard deviation. The values with different superscripts within each column are significantly different (P<0.05). *, after Bonferroni correction, significant difference (p = 0.033) was detected between CC and TT genotype for SMW values.
