Expression quantitative trait locus studies in the era of single-cell omics [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Genome-wide association studies have revealed that the regulation of gene expression bridges genetic variants and complex phenotypes. Profiling of the bulk transcriptome coupled with linkage analysis (expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping ...

Expression quantitative trait locus mapping of extracellular microRNAs in human plasma [PDF]

iScience
Summary: MicroRNAs, crucial in regulating protein-coding gene expression, are implicated in various diseases. We performed a genome-wide association study of plasma miRNAs (ex-miRNAs) in 3,743 Framingham Heart Study (FHS) participants and identified 1 ...

Dissecting the Genetic Basis of Yield Traits and Validation of a Novel Quantitative Trait Locus for Grain Width and Weight in Rice [PDF]

Plants
Grain yield in rice is a complex trait and it is controlled by a number of quantitative trait loci (QTL). To dissect the genetic basis of rice yield, QTL analysis for nine yield traits was performed using an F2 population containing 190 plants, which was

Identification of stable QTL controlling multiple yield components in a durum × cultivated emmer wheat population under field and greenhouse conditions

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2022
Crop yield gains are needed to keep pace with a growing global population and decreasing resources to produce food. Cultivated emmer wheat is a progenitor of durum wheat and a useful source of genetic variation for trait improvement in durum.

Mapping of Two Major QTLs Controlling Flowering Time in Brassica napus Using a High-Density Genetic Map

Plants, 2022
Research on the flowering habit of rapeseed is important for the selection of varieties adapted to specific ecological environments. Here, quantitative trait loci (QTL) for the days-to-flowering trait were identified using a doubled haploid population of

Detection of QTL for traits related to adaptation to sub-optimal climatic conditions in chickens

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2017
Background Growth traits can be used as indicators of adaptation to sub-optimal conditions. The current study aimed at identifying quantitative trait loci (QTL) that control performance under variable temperature conditions in chickens.

Deciphering mechanisms underlying the genetic variation of general production and liver quality traits in the overfed mule duck by pQTL analyses

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2017
Background The aim of this study was to analyse the mechanisms that underlie phenotypic quantitative trait loci (QTL) in overfed mule ducks by identifying co-localized proteomic QTL (pQTL).

Mapping genetic determinants of host susceptibility to Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection in mice. [PDF]

, 2016
Background: P. aeruginosa is one of the top three causes of opportunistic human bacterial infections. The remarkable variability in the clinical outcomes of this infection is thought to be associated with genetic predisposition.
