Background High temperature is one of the major abiotic stresses in tomato and greatly reduces fruit yield and quality. Identifying high-temperature stress-responsive (HSR) genes and breeding heat-tolerant varieties is an effective way to address this ...

Multivariate meta-analysis of QTL mapping studies [PDF]
A large number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for milk production and quality traits in dairy cattle has been reported in literature. The large amount of information available could be exploited by meta-analyses to draw more general conclusions from

Molecular mapping of important agro-botanic traits in sesame [PDF]
Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) ((2n=26) is one of the most ancient oilseed crop of the world. The present study was undertaken to develop a molecular map of the important agro-botanic traits in sesame.

A Latent Variable Approach to Multivariate Quantitative Trait Loci [PDF]
A novel approach based on latent variable modelling is presented for the analysis of multivariate quantitative and qualitative trait loci. The approach is general in the sense that it enables the joint analysis of many kinds of quantitative and ...

Genetic Influences on Brain Gene Expression in Rats Selected for Tameness and Aggression
Inter-individual differences in many behaviors are partly due to genetic differences, but the identification of the genes and variants that influence behavior remains challenging.

Rare variants contribute disproportionately to quantitative trait variation in yeast. [PDF]
How variants with different frequencies contribute to trait variation is a central question in genetics. We use a unique model system to disentangle the contributions of common and rare variants to quantitative traits.

QTL mapping and candidate gene mining for soybean seed weight per plant
In this study, 147 recombinant inbred soybean lines constructed from the parents Charleston and Dongnong594, were used to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for seed weight per plant in multiple years (2006 to 2010 and 2013). QTL mapping was done using a

Detection of quantitative trait loci for locomotion and osteochondrosis-related traits in Large White x Meishan pigs. [PDF]
Data from the F2 generation of a Large White (LW) 5 Meishan (MS) crossbred population were analysed to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) for leg and gait scores, osteochondrosis and physis scores.
