Number and mode of inheritance of QTL influencing backfat thickness on SSC2p in Sino-European pig pedigrees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background In the pig, multiple QTL associated with growth and fatness traits have been mapped to chromosome 2 (SSC2) and among these, at least one shows paternal expression due to the IGF2-intron3-G3072A substitution. Previously published results on the

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.

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 ...

Quantitative Trait Loci Affecting Milk Production Traits in Finnish Ayrshire Dairy Cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A whole genome scan of Finnish Ayrshire was conducted tomap quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting milk production. The analysis included 12 half-sib families containing a total of 494 bulls in a granddaughter design.

Conditional Mapping Identified Quantitative Trait Loci for Grain Protein Concentration Expressing Independently of Grain Yield in Canadian Durum Wheat

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Grain protein concentration (GPC) is an important trait in durum cultivar development as a major determinant of the nutritional value of grain and end-use product quality.

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

open access: yes, 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.

The Power of QTL Mapping with RILs

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
QTL (quantitative trait loci) mapping is commonly used to identify genetic regions responsible to important phenotype variation. A common strategy of QTL mapping is to use recombinant inbred lines (RILs), which are usually established by several generations of inbreeding of an F1 population (usually up to F6 or F7 populations).

A Bayesian approach to detect QTL affecting a simulated binary and quatitative trait [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background - We analyzed simulated data from the 14th QTL-MAS workshop using a Bayesian approach implemented in the program iBay. The data contained individuals genotypes for 10,031 SNPs and phenotyped for a quantitative and a binary trait. Results - For
