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

A framework for gene mapping in wheat demonstrated using the Yr7 yellow rust resistance gene [PDF]
We used three approaches to map the yellow rust resistance gene Yr7 and identify associated SNPs in wheat. First, we used a traditional QTL mapping approach using a double haploid (DH) population and mapped Yr7 to a low-recombination region of chromosome

Genetic and QTL mapping in African bermudagrass [PDF]
Abstract Cynodon transvaalensis BurttâDavy is frequently used to cross with C. dactylon Pers. in the creation of F 1 hybrid cultivars that are some of the most widely used in the worldwide turf industry.

Detection of QTL for Carcass Quality on Chromosome 6 by Exploiting Linkage and Linkage Disequilibrium in Hanwoo [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to improve mapping power and resolution for the QTL influencing carcass quality in Hanwoo, which was previously detected on the bovine chromosome (BTA) 6.

Confidence Intervals in QTL Mapping by Bootstrapping [PDF]
Abstract The determination of empirical confidence intervals for the location of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) was investigated using simulation. Empirical confidence intervals were calculated using a bootstrap resampling method for a backcross population derived from inbred lines.

Investigation of quantitative measures related to reading disability in a large sample of sib-pairs from the UK [PDF]
We describe a family-based sample of individuals with reading disability collected as part of a quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping study. Eighty-nine nuclear families (135 independent sib-pairs) were identified through a single proband using a ...
