, 2014 Improved seed composition in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] for protein and oil quality is one of the major goals of soybean breeders. A group of genes that act as quantitative traits with their effects can alter protein, oil, palmitic, stearic ...

Searching for interacting QTL in related populations of an outbreeding species [PDF]
, 2009 Many important crop species are outbreeding. In outbreeding species the search for genes affecting traits is complicated by the fact that in a single cross up to four alleles may be present at each locus.

A Short Review on the Development of Salt Tolerant Cultivars in Rice [PDF]
, 2016 Rice is staple food for half of the world. With a population of almost 9.6 billion by the year 2050, there is a dire need of developing techniques to improve the crop plants, not only in terms of better yield but also to withstand harsh environmental ...

Assessment of Five Chilling Tolerance Traits and GWAS Mapping in Rice Using the USDA Mini-Core Collection [PDF]
, 2017 Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is often exposed to cool temperatures during spring planting in temperate climates. A better understanding of genetic pathways regulating chilling tolerance will enable breeders to develop varieties with improved tolerance during ...

A new approach to detect non-pleiotropic QTL for correlated traits
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010 In quantitative traits loci (QTL) mapping experiments a number of traits are often recorded. Although most QTL-detection methods are based on single trait analysis, several approaches for multi-trait detection have been proposed (Weller et al., 1996 ...

Uncovering the genetic landscape for multiple sleep-wake traits.
PLoS ONE, 2009 Despite decades of research in defining sleep-wake properties in mammals, little is known about the nature or identity of genes that regulate sleep, a fundamental behaviour that in humans occupies about one-third of the entire lifespan. While genome-wide

A Powerful New Quantitative Genetics Platform, Combining Caenorhabditis elegans High-Throughput Fitness Assays with a Large Collection of Recombinant Strains. [PDF]
, 2015 The genetic variants underlying complex traits are often elusive even in powerful model organisms such as Caenorhabditis elegans with controlled genetic backgrounds and environmental conditions.
