Integration of QTL and bioinformatic tools to identify candidate genes for triglycerides in mice

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
To identify genetic loci influencing lipid levels, we performed quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis between inbred mouse strains MRL/MpJ and SM/J, measuring triglyceride levels at 8 weeks of age in F2 mice fed a chow diet.

Interpreting Functional Impact of Genetic Variations by Network QTL for Genotype–Phenotype Association Study

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
An enormous challenge in the post-genome era is to annotate and resolve the consequences of genetic variation on diverse phenotypes. The genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a well-known method to identify potential genetic loci for complex traits ...

Prioritizing quantitative trait loci for root system architecture in tetraploid wheat

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2016
Optimization of root system architecture (RSA) traits is an important objective for modern wheat breeding. Linkage and association mapping for RSA in two recombinant inbred line populations and one association mapping panel of 183 elite durum wheat ...

Quantitative trait Loci for health traits in Finnish Ayrshire cattle [PDF]

, 2004
A whole-genome scan was conducted to search for quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting health traits in Finnish Ayrshire dairy cattle. The mapping population consisted of 12 bulls and their 491 sons in a granddaughter design. A total of 150 markers were

Bayes factors for detection of Quantitative Trait Loci

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.

Linkage disequilibrium interval mapping of quantitative trait loci

BMC Genomics, 2006
Background For many years gene mapping studies have been performed through linkage analyses based on pedigree data. Recently, linkage disequilibrium methods based on unrelated individuals have been advocated as powerful tools to refine estimates of gene ...

Adaptive evolution of molecular phenotypes

, 2014
Molecular phenotypes link genomic information with organismic functions, fitness, and evolution. Quantitative traits are complex phenotypes that depend on multiple genomic loci. In this paper, we study the adaptive evolution of a quantitative trait under

Expression quantitative trait loci analysis in plants [PDF]

, 2010
An expression Quantitative Trait Locus or eQTL is a chromosomal region that accounts for a proportion of the variation in abundance of a mRNA transcript observed between individuals in a genetic mapping population.

Genome‐Wide by Lifetime Environment Interaction Studies of Brain Imaging Phenotypes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores genome‐wide by lifetime environment interactions on brain imaging phenotypes. Gene‐environment interactions explain more phenotypic variance than main effects, pinpoint regulatory variants, and reveal exposure‐specific biological pathways.
