Quantitative trait loci for bone traits segregating independently of those for growth in an F-2 broiler X layer cross [PDF]

, 2007
An F-2 broiler-layer cross was phenotyped for 18 skeletal traits at 6, 7 and 9 weeks of age and genotyped with 120 microsatellite markers. Interval mapping identified 61 suggestive and significant QTL on 16 of the 25 linkage groups for 16 traits.

Genetic and Molecular Basis of Processing Traits and Genetic Improvement Progress in Major Fruit Crops

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Processing quality in fruit crops is governed by complex genetic networks controlling texture, sweetness, color, browning, aroma, and nutritional quality. Advances in genomics, genomic selection, and genome editing enable the development of processing‐oriented cultivars with improved industrial performance, reduced postharvest losses, and enhanced ...

Regulatory Variation at Glypican-3 Underlies a Major Growth QTL in Mice [PDF]

, 2005
The genetic basis of variation in complex traits remains poorly understood, and few genes underlying variation have been identified. Previous work identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL) responsible for much of the response to selection on growth in ...

Sorghum T2T pangenome highlights comprehensive genomic variation

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Three newly assembled telomere‐to‐telomere (T2T) genomes representing wild, landrace, and transformable germplasm were integrated with seven publicly available T2T genomes to construct a graph‐based pangenome. Comparative analyses revealed extensive centromere divergence, including distinct CEN137 monomer and CEN274 dimer organization, and showed that ...

Fine mapping of cucumber downy mildew resistance loci identifies candidate genes linked to ethylene‐associated stomatal defence

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Downy mildew, caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis, is one of the most destructive diseases affecting cucumber and remains difficult to manage sustainably through fungicide‐dependent control strategies. Although several resistance loci have been reported, many previously mapped regions remain too broad for efficient marker‐assisted ...

Cross‐Cohort Evidence Links KCNJ6 rs702859 to Impulsive–Compulsive Phenotypes in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Impulse control disorders (ICDs) and related compulsive behaviors (CBs) are frequent non‐motor complications of Parkinson's disease (PD) with a probable genetic contribution. Objective To investigate whether genetic variants involved in reward and punishment processing are associated with impulsive–compulsive phenotypes in PD ...

Comparison of granddaughter design and general pedigree design analysis of QTL in dairy cattle: a simulation study

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2005
Traditional methods for detection and mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) in dairy cattle populations are usually based on daughter design (DD) or granddaughter design (GDD).

A region on chicken chromosome 2 affects both egg white thinning and egg weight [PDF]

, 2005
We describe the results from genetic dissection of a QTL region on chicken chromosome 2, shown to affect egg weight and quality in an earlier genome scan of an F2 intercross between two divergent egg layer lines.

Impact of plant breeding on the responsiveness of maize and wheat varieties to an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal symbiont

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Field inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) offers a promising route to improve sustainable agriculture and food production, yet results are often variable. We investigated the mycorrhizal growth response of maize and wheat varieties recommended for farmers and found substantial variation under greenhouse conditions.
