QTL Express: mapping quantitative trait loci in simple and complex pedigrees [PDF]
Abstract Summary: QTL Express is the first application for Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) mapping in outbred populations with a web-based user interface. User input of three files containing a marker map, trait data and marker genotypes allows mapping of single or multiple QTL by the regression approach, with the option to perform ...

Rice root genetic architecture: Meta-analysis from a drought QTL database [PDF]
During the last 10 years, a large number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling rice root morphological parameters have been detected in several mapping populations by teams interested in improving drought resistance in rice.

Mapping QTLs for mineral accumulation and shoot dry biomass under different Zn nutritional conditions in Chinese cabbage ( Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis ) [PDF]
Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis) is one of the most important vegetables in China. Genetic dissection of leaf mineral accumulation and tolerance to Zn stress is important for the improvement of the nutritional quality of Chinese cabbage

Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL)-Guided Metabolic Engineering of a Complex Trait
Engineering complex phenotypes for industrial and synthetic biology applications is difficult and often confounds rational design. Bioethanol production from lignocellulosic feedstocks is a complex trait that requires multiple host systems to utilize, detoxify, and metabolize a mixture of sugars and inhibitors present in plant hydrolysates.

Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) mapping for growth traits in the mouse: A review [PDF]
The attainment of a specific mature body size is one of the most fundamental differences among species of mammals. Moreover, body size seems to be the central factor underlying differences in traits such as growth rate, energy metabolism and body composition. An important proportion of this variability is of genetic origin.
