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 ...

Construction of a high-density genetic map using specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing and quantitative trait loci analysis for tillering related traits in Psathyrostachys juncea perennial grass [PDF]

PeerJ
Background Russian wildrye (RWR, Psathyrostachys juncea) is an outcrossing perennial grass that plays a crucial role in foragaing and rangeland restoration due to its tiller producing capabilities, nevertheless, a genetic map has yet to be constructed ...

Detection of quantitative trait loci for carcass composition traits in pigs [PDF]

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2002
A quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of carcass composition data from a three-generation experimental cross between Meishan (MS) and Large White (LW) pig breeds is presented. A total of 488 F2 males issued from six F1 boars and 23 F1 sows, the progeny of six LW boars and six MS sows, were slaughtered at approximately 80 kg live weight and were ...

Quantitative Trait Loci for Health Traits in Finnish Ayrshire Cattle [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 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 typed covering all 29 autosomes.

Identification of Gene Variants Associated with Melanocyte Stem Cell Differentiation in Mice Predisposed for Hair Graying

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Age-related hair graying is caused by malfunction in the regenerative potential of the adult pigmentation system. The retention of hair color over the life of an organism is dependent on the ability of the melanocyte stem cells and their progeny to ...

Heritability and tissue specificity of expression quantitative trait loci.

PLoS Genetics, 2006
Variation in gene expression is heritable and has been mapped to the genome in humans and model organisms as expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs). We applied integrated genome-wide expression profiling and linkage analysis to the regulation of gene

Confirmation of quantitative trait loci affecting fatness in chickens

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2005
In this report we describe the analysis of an advanced intercross line (AIL) to confirm the quantitative trait locus (QTL) regions found for fatness traits in a previous study. QTL analysis was performed on chromosomes 1, 3, 4, 15, 18, and 27.

Optimal selection on two quantitative trait loci with linkage

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2002
A mathematical approach to optimize selection on multiple quantitative trait loci (QTL) and an estimate of residual polygenic effects was applied to selection on two linked or unlinked additive QTL.

Common Expression Quantitative Trait Loci Shared by Histone Genes

International Journal of Genomics, 2017
A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted to examine expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) for histone genes. We examined common eQTLs for multiple histone genes in 373 European lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs).
