Quantitative Trait Locus and Genetical Genomics Analysis Identifies Putatively Causal Genes for Fecundity and Brooding in the Chicken

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Life history traits such as fecundity are important to evolution because they make up components of lifetime fitness. Due to their polygenic architectures, such traits are difficult to investigate with genetic mapping.

Parent-of-origin-specific allelic associations among 106 genomic loci for age at menarche. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Age at menarche is a marker of timing of puberty in females. It varies widely between individuals, is a heritable trait and is associated with risks for obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, breast cancer and all-cause mortality.

Cis -acting expression quantitative trait loci in mice [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Research, 2005
We previously reported the analysis of genome-wide expression profiles and various diabetes-related traits in a segregating cross between inbred mouse strains C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (DBA). By considering transcript levels as quantitative traits, we identified several thousand expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) with LOD ...

Multiple sclerosis risk variants regulate gene expression in innate and adaptive immune cells

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2020
This comprehensive study identifies multiple sclerosis risk expression quantitative trait loci in purified immune cell types. At least 200 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) risk.

Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping in Puerto Rican children. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) have been identified using tissue or cell samples from diverse human populations, thus enhancing our understanding of regulation of gene expression.

GSTCD and INTS12 Regulation and Expression in the Human Lung [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) meta-analyses have identified a strong association signal for lung function, which maps to a region on 4q24 containing two oppositely transcribed genes: glutathione S-transferase, C-terminal domain containing (GSTCD ...

Single cell expression quantitative trait loci and complex traits [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2013
The recently developed ability to quantify mRNA abundance and noise in single cells has allowed the effect of heritable variations on gene function to be re-evaluated. A recent study has shown that major sources of variation are masked when gene expression is averaged over many cells.

Cross-Talk of Expression Quantitative Trait Loci Within 2 Interacting Blood Pressure Quantitative Trait Loci [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension, 2007
Genetic dissection of the S rat genome has provided strong evidence for the presence of 2 interacting blood pressure quantitative trait loci (QTLs), termed QTL1 and QTL2, on rat chromosome 5. However, the identities of the underlying interacting genetic factors remain unknown.

Unraveling the Regulatory Mechanisms Underlying Tissue-Dependent Genetic Variation of Gene Expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It is known that genetic variants can affect gene expression, but it is not yet completely clear through what mechanisms genetic variation mediate this expression.

Interpreting Functional Impact of Genetic Variations by Network QTL for Genotype–Phenotype Association Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
An enormous challenge in the post-genome era is to annotate and resolve the consequences of genetic variation on diverse phenotypes. The genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a well-known method to identify potential genetic loci for complex traits ...
