Genome-Wide Identification of Expression Quantitative Trait Loci (eQTLs) in Human Heart
In recent years genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have uncovered numerous chromosomal loci associated with various electrocardiographic traits and cardiac arrhythmia predisposition.

Quantitative Trait Loci Identify Functional Noncoding Variation in Cancer.
The interpretation of noncoding alterations in cancer genomes presents an unresolved problem in cancer studies. While the impact of somatic variations in protein-coding regions is widely accepted, noncoding aberrations are mostly considered as passenger ...

Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci onto Chromosome-Scale Pseudomolecules in Flax
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) are genomic regions associated with phenotype variation of quantitative traits. To date, a total of 313 QTL for 31 quantitative traits have been reported in 14 studies on flax.

Heritability and tissue specificity of expression quantitative trait loci.
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
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.
