Bayes factors for detection of Quantitative Trait Loci [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2001 A fundamental issue in quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is to determine the plausibility of the presence of a QTL at a given genome location. Bayesian analysis offers an attractive way of testing alternative models (here, QTL vs.

Interval mapping of multiple quantitative trait loci. [PDF]
Genetics, 1993 Abstract The interval mapping method is widely used for the mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in segregating generations derived from crosses between inbred lines. The efficiency of detecting and the accuracy of mapping multiple QTLs by using genetic markers are much increased by employing multiple QTL models instead of the ...

Quantitative Trait Loci: A Meta-analysis [PDF]
Genetics, 2000 Abstract This article presents a method to combine QTL results from different independent analyses. This method provides a modified Akaike criterion that can be used to decide how many QTL are actually represented by the QTL detected in different experiments. This criterion is computed to choose between models with one, two, three, etc.,

Investigation of Splicing Quantitative Trait Loci in [PDF]
Genomics & Informatics, 2016 The alteration of alternative splicing patterns has an effect on the quantification of functional proteins, leading to phenotype variation. The splicing quantitative trait locus (sQTL) is one of the main genetic elements affecting splicing patterns. Here,

On the Fourier transform of a quantitative trait: Implications for compressive sensing [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, Vol. 540, Year 2022, Article ID
110985, ISSN 0022-5193, 2021 This paper explores the genotype-phenotype relationship. It outlines conditions under which the dependence of a quantitative trait on the genome might be predictable, based on measurement of a limited subset of genotypes. It uses the theory of real-valued Boolean functions in a systematic way to translate trait data into the Fourier domain.

Morphometric and Genetic Description of Trophic Adaptations in Cichlid Fishes
Biology, 2022 Since Darwin, biologists have sought to understand the evolution and origins of phenotypic adaptations. The skull is particularly diverse due to intense natural selection on feeding biomechanics.

Pan-Genomic Regulation of Gene Expression in Normal and Pathological Human Placentas
Cells, 2023 In this study, we attempted to find genetic variants affecting gene expression (eQTL = expression Quantitative Trait Loci) in the human placenta in normal and pathological situations.

Mapping Splicing Quantitative Trait Loci in RNA-Seq
Cancer Informatics, 2014 Background One of the major mechanisms of generating mRNA diversity is alternative splicing, a regulated process that allows for the flexibility of producing functionally different proteins from the same genomic sequences.
