Characterization of potential for within sire comparisons among genotypes
| Progeny distribution measures for 28 sires | Value |
|---|---|
| Median number of progeny per sire | 4.5 |
| Sires with 3 progeny F94L genotypes1 | 12 |
| Average F94L progeny genotypes per sire | 2.04 |
| Sires with 3 progeny CAPN1 diplotypes2 | 7 |
| Average CAPN1 progeny diplotypes per sire | 2.11 |
| Sires with 7 to 9 CAPN1 × F94L progeny genotypes | 4 |
| Sires with 1 to 3 CAPN1 × F94L progeny genotypes | 16 |
| Median CAPN1 × MSTN progeny genotypes per sire | 3 |
1Myostatin (MSTN) F94L genotypes were homozygous F94LaF, heterozygous F94L, and homozygous F94LaL.
2µ-Calpain (CAPN1) 316–4751 diplotypes were homozygous CAPN1hCC, the heterozygotes, and homozygous CAPN1hNN.
