Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping in Rice

Applications of Bioinformatics in Rice Research, 2021
Rice is considered as a model plant to map the complete genome and identify the genes in the genome for various traits. Recent advance in molecular biology and statistical analysis techniques could boost the plant breeder to gain knowledge on rice genome and find out the function and expression of rice genes.

PM20D1 is a quantitative trait locus associated with Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yesNature Medicine, 2018
The chances to develop Alzheimer's disease (AD) result from a combination of genetic and non-genetic risk factors 1 , the latter likely being mediated by epigenetic mechanisms 2 . In the past, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified an important number of risk loci associated with AD pathology 3 , but a causal relationship remains ...

Dissecting the architecture of a quantitative trait locus in yeast [PDF]

open access: possibleNature, 2002
Most phenotypic diversity in natural populations is characterized by differences in degree rather than in kind. Identification of the actual genes underlying these quantitative traits has proved difficult. As a result, little is known about their genetic architecture.

Quantitative‐trait‐locus Mapping in the Presence of Locus Heterogeneity

Annals of Human Genetics, 2006
SummaryLocus heterogeneity is a concern for quantitative trait locus mapping where phenotypes are likely to be influenced by more than one gene. We introduce a model which generalizes the locus heterogeneity model of Smith (1961) from dichotomous traits to quantitative traits and consider some test statistics for this model.

Quantitative trait locus analysis of wheat quality traits

Euphytica, 2006
Milling and baking quality traits in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were studied by QTL analysis in the ITMI population, a set of 114 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) generated from a synthetic-hexaploid (W7985) × bread-wheat (Opata 85) cross. Grain from RILs grown in U.S., French, and Mexican wheat-growing regions was assayed for kernel-texture traits ...

A Quantitative Trait Locus on 13q14.2 for Trunk Strength

Twin Research, 2004
Previous findings show strong evidence for the role of retinoblastoma (Rb) in myoblast proliferation and differentiation. However, it is not known whether variation in the retinoblastoma gene (RB1 ) is responsible for normal variation in human muscle strength.

Quantitative Trait Locus Analysis in Haplodiploid Hymenoptera

2012
This article describes QTL analyses for solitary (Nasonia, a parasitoid wasp) and social hymenopteran species (honeybee and bumblebee). These exemplar QTL analyses determined the genetic basis of morphological, behavioral, and colony level traits. Mapping populations were derived either from lab crosses between highly inbred strains (Nasonia spp.), lab

Quantitative Trait Locus for Reading Disability: Correction

Science, 1995
In the news article "Can risky mergers save hospital-based research?" by Wade Roush (19 May, p. 968), the statement that University Hospitals of Cleveland rose from 20th in the rankings of teaching hospitals funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 1991 to 12th at present was incorrect. In fact, it was Case Western Reserve University (CWRU),

A longitudinal quantitative trait locus mapping of chicken growth traits

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2018
Since the growth traits of chickens are largely related to the production of meat and eggs, it is definitely important to understand genetic basis of growth traits. Although many quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that affect growth traits have recently been reported in chickens, little is known about genetic architecture of growth traits across all growth

The investigation of linkage between a quantitative trait and a marker locus

Behavior Genetics, 1972
Procedures are given, using sib pairs, for estimating linkage between a knownm-allele locus and a hypothesized two-allele locus that governs a quantitative trait. Random mating and linkage equilibrium are assumed. Also given are parametric and nonparametric methods for detecting linkage when the trait in question is governed by several two-allele loci,
