Advances in QTL Mapping in Pigs [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Sciences, 2007
Over the past 15 years advances in the porcine genetic linkage map and discovery of useful candidate genes have led to valuable gene and trait information being discovered. Early use of exotic breed crosses and now commercial breed crosses for quantitative trait loci (QTL) scans and candidate gene analyses have led to 110 publications which have ...

Tools for quantitative trait locus mapping and genome-wide association study mapping: a review

open access: yes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

R/qtl: QTL mapping in experimental crosses

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2003
Abstract Summary: R/qtl is an extensible, interactive environment for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in experimental populations derived from inbred lines. It is implemented as an add-on package for the freely-available statistical software, R, and includes functions for estimating genetic maps, identifying genotyping errors, and

Effects of the number of markers per haplotype and clustering of haplotypes on the accuracy of QTL mapping and prediction of genomic breeding values [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The aim of this paper was to compare the effect of haplotype definition on the precision of QTL-mapping and on the accuracy of predicted genomic breeding values.

Identification of unconditional and conditional QTL for oil, protein and starch content in maize

open access: yesCrop 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 ...

Combining QTL-seq and linkage mapping to uncover the genetic basis of single vs. paired spikelets in the advanced populations of two-ranked maize×teosinte

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Teosinte ear bears single spikelet, whereas maize ear bears paired spikelets, doubling the number of grains in each cupulate during maize domestication. In the past 20 years, genetic analysis of single vs.

Assessment of Five Chilling Tolerance Traits and GWAS Mapping in Rice Using the USDA Mini-Core Collection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is often exposed to cool temperatures during spring planting in temperate climates. A better understanding of genetic pathways regulating chilling tolerance will enable breeders to develop varieties with improved tolerance during ...

Recalculation of 23 mouse HDL QTL datasets improves accuracy and allows for better candidate gene analysis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
In the past 15 years, the quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping approach has been applied to crosses between different inbred mouse strains to identify genetic loci associated with plasma HDL cholesterol levels.

Multiparental mapping of plant height and flowering time QTL in partially isogenic sorghum families. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Sorghum varieties suitable for grain production at temperate latitudes show dwarfism and photoperiod insensitivity, both of which are controlled by a small number of loci with large effects.

Composite Interval Mapping Based on Lattice Design for Error Control May Increase Power of Quantitative Trait Locus Detection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...
