  1. Using the Bonferroni correction for multiple testing (p<0.05), five Oar5 SNPs on the Illumina ovine 50K SNP array showed significant association to litter size in Norwegian White Sheep. Chromosomal positions together with the unadjusted p-values are shown. The corresponding information for GDF9 c.1111G>A is also shown.
