Mapping Splicing Quantitative Trait Loci in RNA-Seq

open access: yesCancer Informatics, 2015
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.

Quantitative Trait Loci: A Meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 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.,

Whole genome QTL mapping for growth, meat quality and breast meat yield traits in turkey

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2011
Background The turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) is an important agricultural species and is the second largest contributor to the world's poultry meat production. Demand of turkey meat is increasing very rapidly.

Mapping quantitative trait loci affecting skeletal asymmetry in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) [PDF]

open access: yesمجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2017
Asymmetry is an indicator of genetic and environmental stressors in organisms and plays an important role in developmental instability. It is suggested that symmetrical individuals do generally have faster growth, higher fecundity, and better survival ...

Identifying Quantitative Trait Loci and Candidate Genes Conferring Resistance to Soybean Mosaic Virus SC7 by Quantitative Trait Loci-Sequencing in Soybean

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) is detrimental to soybean (Glycine max) breeding, seed quality, and yield worldwide. Improving the basic resistance of host plants is the most effective and economical method to reduce damage from SMV.

Genome-wide association study to identify genomic loci associated with early vigor in bread wheat under simulated water deficit complemented with quantitative trait loci meta-analysis

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2022
A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was used to identify associated loci with early vigor under simulated water deficit and grain yield under field drought in a diverse collection of Iranian bread wheat landraces.

Quantitative Trait Locus and Genetical Genomics Analysis Identifies Putatively Causal Genes for Fecundity and Brooding in the Chicken

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Life history traits such as fecundity are important to evolution because they make up components of lifetime fitness. Due to their polygenic architectures, such traits are difficult to investigate with genetic mapping.

Mapping epistatic quantitative trait loci

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2014
How to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) with epistasis efficiently and reliably has been a persistent problem for QTL mapping analysis. There are a number of difficulties for studying epistatic QTL. Linkage can impose a significant challenge for finding epistatic QTL reliably. If multiple QTL are in linkage and have interactions, searching for QTL can

Unraveling the Genetic Architecture of Complex Traits in Plants

open access: yesActa Biológica Colombiana, 2023
Complex traits are those whose inheritance does not follow simple and predictable patterns. They are not governed by a single locus, instead, they are determined by several loci and are influenced by the environment.

Quantitative trait loci and metabolic pathways [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998
The interpretation of quantitative trait locus (QTL) studies is limited by the lack of information on metabolic pathways leading to most economic traits. Inferences about the roles of the underlying genes with a pathway or the nature of their interaction with other loci are generally not possible. An exception is resistance to the corn
