Tools for quantitative trait locus mapping and genome-wide association study mapping: a review
浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2014 One of the key objectives in genomics studies is to understand genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping and genome-wide association study (GWAS) mapping have been using to dissect genetic architecture of

Multiple QTL for horticultural traits and quantitative resistance to Phytophthora infestans linked on Solanum habrochaites chromosome 11. [PDF]
, 2014 Previously, a Phytophthora infestans resistance QTL from Solanum habrochaites chromosome 11 was introgressed into cultivated tomato (S. lycopersicum). Fine mapping of this resistance QTL using near-isogenic lines (NILs) revealed some co-located QTL with ...

Identification of unconditional and conditional QTL for oil, protein and starch content in maize
Crop Journal, 2013 Oil, protein and starch are key chemical components of maize kernels. A population of 245 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between a high-oil inbred line, By804, and a regular inbred line, B73, was used to dissect the genetic ...

Quantitative trait loci for bone traits segregating independently of those for growth in an F-2 broiler X layer cross [PDF]
, 2007 An F 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.

Trends in Genetics, 1995 In the past 10 years, interest in applying the tools of molecular genetics to the problem of increasing world rice production has resulted in the generation of two highly saturated, molecular linkage maps of rice, and the localization of numerous genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs).

Composite Interval Mapping Based on Lattice Design for Error Control May Increase Power of Quantitative Trait Locus Detection. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Experimental error control is very important in quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping. Although numerous statistical methods have been developed for QTL mapping, a QTL detection model based on an appropriate experimental design that emphasizes error ...

Genetic interactions contribute less than additive effects to quantitative trait variation in yeast. [PDF]
, 2015 Genetic mapping studies of quantitative traits typically focus on detecting loci that contribute additively to trait variation. Genetic interactions are often proposed as a contributing factor to trait variation, but the relative contribution of ...
