| Summary: | age of dam as a covariate. PCV and EPG were statistically and eighty-one animals with eggs per gram of feces (EPG) and associated with four microsatellite markers. Markers SR- bovine genomic libraries were used to genotype DNA collected breed of kid, haplotype within sire within breed of kid, and coccidial egg counts. Marker SR-CRSP-14 was found to be CRSP- I and SR-CRSP-12 were associated with PCV and markers determined to be linked with a lod-score of 3.1 1, a effects model that included year of birth, season of birth, from the Kenya dual purpose goat (KDPG) flock. Two hundred I 1, SRCRSP-16, SR-CRSP-18, and SR-CRSP-20 were associated icrosatellite markers. SAS GLM was used to fit a fixed in similar analyses. map units which was consistent with earlier results obtained Microsatellite markers SR-CRSP-2 and SR-CRSP-3 were model was used to determine marker association with birth months was associated with SR-CRSP-3 and SR-CRSP-20. packed cell volume (PCV) as measures of haemonchosis, were recombination rate of 18%, and an estimated distance of 18.3 sex of the kid, type of birth, breed of kid, sire within significantly associated with birthweight. Markers SR-CRSP- SR-CRSP- II and TEXAN-2 were associated with EPG. The same Twenty-four microsatellite markers, isolated from caprine and used in an analysis to detect associations with the m- weaning weight, weight at 6 months, and EPG. Weight at 9 weight, weaning weight, weight at 6, 9, and 12 months and with weaning weight. SR-CRSP-1 I was also associated with |
