Summary Linkage and QTL maps of Sus scrofa chromosome 17 (SSC17) were analysed with five markers and in three F 2 families based on Wild Boar (W), Meishan (M) and Pietrain (P) crosses. The maps were similar across the three families and agree well with published maps. In the M × P family, new quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for growth and fat deposition were located in the vicinity of GHRH , whereas in the W × P family one minor QTLs for daily gain was detected. No QTL was found in the W × M family.
