SNPs on Chr1 satisfying the following criteria were used to construct the haplotype. i. SNP set I, significant SNPs associated with BW at different ages in weeks; ii. SNP set II, significant SNPs associated with traits strongly correlated with BW (Pearson’s r2 > 0.54); iii. SNP set III, high-LD SNPs with SNP set I, and SNP set II (r2 > 0.7) and the removal of one of any pair of adjacent SNPs <100 bp apart. Two blocks were obtained with these 39 SNPs (162,392,483–173,372,050), located at 170,518,527–170,858,231 (170.52–170.86 Mb) and 172,984,526–173,069,902 (172.98–173.07 Mb).
