Whole genome QTL mapping for growth, meat quality and breast meat yield traits in turkey [PDF]

BMC Genetics, 2011
Background The turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) is an important agricultural species and is the second largest contributor to the world's poultry meat production. Demand of turkey meat is increasing very rapidly.

Bayes factors for detection of Quantitative Trait Loci [PDF]

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2001
A fundamental issue in quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is to determine the plausibility of the presence of a QTL at a given genome location. Bayesian analysis offers an attractive way of testing alternative models (here, QTL vs.

Genetic mapping of quantitative trait loci in crops

Crop Journal, 2017
Dissecting the genetic architecture of complex traits is an ongoing challenge for geneticists. Two complementary approaches for genetic mapping, linkage mapping and association mapping have led to successful dissection of complex traits in many crop ...

Linkage disequilibrium interval mapping of quantitative trait loci [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2006
Background For many years gene mapping studies have been performed through linkage analyses based on pedigree data. Recently, linkage disequilibrium methods based on unrelated individuals have been advocated as powerful tools to refine estimates of gene ...

A compendium of uniformly processed human gene expression and splicing quantitative trait loci

Nature Genetics, 2021
Many gene expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies have published their summary statistics, which can be used to gain insight into complex human traits by downstream analyses, such as fine mapping and co-localization.

An atlas of alternative polyadenylation quantitative trait loci contributing to complex trait and disease heritability

Nature Genetics, 2021
Genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of noncoding variants associated with human traits and diseases. However, the functional interpretation of these variants is a major challenge. Here, we constructed a multi-tissue atlas of human 3′

Investigation of Splicing Quantitative Trait Loci in [PDF]

Genomics & Informatics, 2016
The alteration of alternative splicing patterns has an effect on the quantification of functional proteins, leading to phenotype variation. The splicing quantitative trait locus (sQTL) is one of the main genetic elements affecting splicing patterns. Here,

Pan-Genomic Regulation of Gene Expression in Normal and Pathological Human Placentas

Cells, 2023
In this study, we attempted to find genetic variants affecting gene expression (eQTL = expression Quantitative Trait Loci) in the human placenta in normal and pathological situations.

Morphometric and Genetic Description of Trophic Adaptations in Cichlid Fishes

Biology, 2022
Since Darwin, biologists have sought to understand the evolution and origins of phenotypic adaptations. The skull is particularly diverse due to intense natural selection on feeding biomechanics.
