Genetic Analysis of Mitochondrial Sorting from the MSC3 Mosaic Mutant of Cucumber
Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) plants regenerated from cell cultures occasionally possess mosaic (MSC) phenotypes on cotyledons and leaves. Lines MSC3 and MSC16 have distinct MSC phenotypes and originated from plants regenerated from different cell-culture ...

Mapping of serum amylase-1 and quantitative trait loci for milk production traits to cattle chromosome 4 [PDF]
The present study was undertaken to confirm and refine the mapping of a quantitative trait locus in cattle for milk fat percentage that had earlier been reported to be linked to the serum amylase-1 locus, AM1.

Quantitative Trait Locus Analysis of Longitudinal Quantitative Trait Data in Complex Pedigrees [PDF]
Abstract There is currently considerable interest in genetic analysis of quantitative traits such as blood pressure and body mass index. Despite the fact that these traits change throughout life they are commonly analyzed only at a single time point.

Quantitative trait loci influencing end-use quality traits of hard red spring wheat breeding lines
Wheat bread-making quality is influenced by a complex group of traits including dough visco-elastic characteristics. In this study, quantitative trait locus/loci (QTL) mapping and analysis were conducted for endosperm polymeric proteins together with ...

Controlling the Overfitting of Heritability in Genomic Selection through Cross Validation. [PDF]
In genomic selection (GS), all the markers across the entire genome are used to conduct marker-assisted selection such that each quantitative trait locus of complex trait is in linkage disequilibrium with at least one marker.

Identifying and Characterizing Candidate Genes Contributing to a Grain Yield QTL in Wheat
The current study focuses on identifying the candidate genes of a grain yield QTL from a double haploid population, Westonia × Kauz. The QTL region spans 20 Mbp on the IWGSC whole-genome sequence flank with 90K SNP markers.
