Quantitative Trait Loci for Biofortification Traits in Maize Grain [PDF]
Detecting genes that influence biofortification traits in cereal grain could help increase the concentrations of bioavailable mineral elements in crops to solve the global mineral malnutrition problem. The aims of this study were to detect the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for phosphorus (P), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), and magnesium (Mg) concentrations in ...

QTLMAS 2009: simulated dataset [PDF]
Background - The simulation of the data for the QTLMAS 2009 Workshop is described. Objective was to simulate observations from a growth curve which was influenced by a number of QTL.

Expression quantitative trait loci are highly sensitive to cellular differentiation state [PDF]
Blood cell development from multipotent hematopoietic stem cells to specialized blood cells is accompanied by drastic changes in gene expression for which the triggers remain mostly unknown.

Unraveling the Genetic Architecture of Complex Traits in Plants
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.

Genetic influences on gene expression in the human fetal brain plausibly impact upon a variety of postnatal brain-related traits, including susceptibility to neuropsychiatric disorders. However, to date, there have been no studies that have mapped genome-

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 ...

Strengthening Causal Inference for Complex Disease Using Molecular Quantitative Trait Loci.
Large genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified loci that are associated with complex traits and diseases, but index variants are often not causal and reside in non-coding regions of the genome. To gain a better understanding of the relevant

Bayesian Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping for Multiple Traits [PDF]
AbstractMost quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping experiments typically collect phenotypic data on multiple correlated complex traits. However, there is a lack of a comprehensive genomewide mapping strategy for correlated traits in the literature. We develop Bayesian multiple-QTL mapping methods for correlated continuous traits using two multivariate ...

An eQTL analysis of partial resistance to Puccinia hordei in barley [PDF]
Background - Genetic resistance to barley leaf rust caused by Puccinia hordei involves both R genes and quantitative trait loci. The R genes provide higher but less durable resistance than the quantitative trait loci. Consequently, exploring quantitative

Genetic regulation of cholesterol absorption and plasma plant sterol levels
The molecular basis of the processes that control two closely related traits, the absorption of cholesterol from the intestines and plasma plant sterol levels, are only partially understood. The discovery that mutations in two novel hemitransporters, ATP
