A previous work, focusing on SSC12 showed two QTLs affecting different BF fatty acids (Muñoz et al., 2007 ) and highly significant associations were found for two SNPs in the Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase ∝ gene ( ACACA ).

The sentences
In order to perform the QTL scan along SSC12 for IMF fatty acid composition traits (Table 1 ), three different models (a first one counting for additive and dominance effects, a second one counting only for additive effects and a last one counting only for dominant effects) were used and barely significant additive effects were detected.
