Mapping quantitative trait loci and identification of genes that control fatness in poultry [PDF]
Chicken genomics has benefited from the rapid technological advances in the genomics of model organisms and man. A number of resources and approaches are now well established, in the chicken, including genetic markers and maps (both genetic and physical),

How much can the orientation of G's eigenvectors tell us about genetic constraints? [PDF]
A key goal in evolutionary quantitative genetics is to understand how evolutionary trajectories are constrained by pleiotropic coupling among multiple traits.

The genetic architecture of quantitative variation
Most characters of economic importance in plants and animals and complex diseases in humans exhibit quantitative variation, the genetics of which has been a fascinating subject of study since Mendel's discovery of the laws of inheritance.

Spatially structured genetic variation in a broadcast spawning bivalve: quantitative vs. molecular traits [PDF]
Understanding the origin, maintenance and significance of phenotypic variation is one of the central issues in evolutionary biology. An ongoing discussion focuses on the relative roles of isolation and selection as being at the heart of genetically based

From qualitative to quantitative: the state of the art and challenges for plant synthetic biology
The flourishing plant science promotes the exploding number of data and the expansion of toolkits. Plant synthetic biology is still in its early stages and requires more quantitative and predictable study. Despite the challenges, some pioneering examples
