Imputation of quantitative genetic interactions in epistatic MAPs by interaction propagation matrix completion [PDF]
, 2014 A popular large-scale gene interaction discovery platform is the Epistatic Miniarray Profile (E-MAP). E-MAPs benefit from quantitative output, which makes it possible to detect subtle interactions.

Estimating quantitative genetic parameters in wild populations:A comparison of pedigree and genomic approaches [PDF]
, 2014 The estimation of quantitative genetic parameters in wild populations is generally limited by the accuracy and completeness of the available pedigree information. Using relatedness at genome-wide markers can potentially remove this limitation and lead to

Ergonomic Chair Design by Fusing Qualitative and Quantitative Criteria using Interactive Genetic Algorithms [PDF]
, 2008 This paper emphasizes the necessity of formally bringing qualitative and quantitative criteria of ergonomic design together, and provides a novel complementary design framework with this aim. Within this framework, different design criteria are viewed

The quantitative genetic basis of sex ratio variation in Nasonia vitripennis : a QTL study [PDF]
, 2010 Our understanding of how natural selection should shape sex allocation is perhaps more developed than for any other trait. However, this understanding is not matched by our knowledge of the genetic basis of sex allocation.

Genetic analysis of environmental variation [PDF]
, 2010 Environmental variation (V-E) in a quantitative trait - variation in phenotype that cannot be explained by genetic variation or identifiable genetic differences - can be regarded as being under some degree of genetic control. Such variation may be either

Missing Heritability in the Tails of Quantitative Traits? A Simulation Study on the Impact of Slightly Altered True Genetic Models [PDF]
, 2011 Objective: Genome-wide association studies have identified robust associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms and complex traits. As the proportion of phenotypic variance explained is still limited for most of the traits, larger and larger meta ...
