From: Fine mapping of QTL and genomic prediction using allele-specific expression SNPs demonstrates that the complex trait of genetic resistance to Marek’s disease is predominantly determined by transcriptional regulation

Disease incidence showing response to one generation of selection for genetic resistance or susceptibility to Marek’s disease (MD) based on allele-specific expression (ASE) SNPs only. Genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs) for 200 F7 generation of sires were calculated as the sum of the ASE SNP effects, given the genotype of the sire, and the top 30 and bottom 30 ranked individuals were progeny tested; ~30 progeny per sire. The average incidence and standard deviation for each group of progeny is shown
