Integration of genetics into a systems model of electrocardiographic traits using humanCVD BeadChip [PDF]

, 2012
<p>Background—Electrocardiographic traits are important, substantially heritable determinants of risk of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.</p> <p>Methods and Results—In this study, 3 population-based cohorts (n=10 526) genotyped ...

Identifying QTLs Related to Grain Filling Using a Doubled Haploid Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Population

Agronomy, 2023
Grain filling is an important trait of rice that affects the yield of grain-oriented crop species with sink capacity-related traits. Here, we used a doubled haploid (DH) population derived from a cross between 93-11 (P1, indica) and Milyang352 (P2 ...

Detection of quantitative trait loci for reproduction and production traits in Large White and French Landrace pig populations (Open Access publication)

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2008
A genome-wide scan was performed in Large White and French Landrace pig populations in order to identify QTL affecting reproduction and production traits.

A New Advanced Backcross Tomato Population Enables High Resolution Leaf QTL Mapping and Gene Identification. [PDF]

, 2016
Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) mapping is a powerful technique for dissecting the genetic basis of traits and species differences. Established tomato mapping populations between domesticated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and its more distant interfertile ...

Expression Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension [PDF]

Genes, 2020
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) can provide a link between disease susceptibility variants discovered by genetic association studies and biology. To date, eQTL mapping studies have been primarily conducted in healthy individuals from population-based cohorts.

Parameter Estimation and Quantitative Parametric Linkage Analysis with GENEHUNTER-QMOD [PDF]

, 2012
Objective: We present a parametric method for linkage analysis of quantitative phenotypes. The method provides a test for linkage as well as an estimate of different phenotype parameters.

The X Chromosome in Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping [PDF]

Genetics, 2006
AbstractThe X chromosome requires special treatment in the mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL). However, most QTL mapping methods, and most computer programs for QTL mapping, have focused exclusively on autosomal loci. We describe a method for appropriate treatment of the X chromosome for QTL mapping in experimental crosses.

Genomic prediction from observed and imputed high-density ovine genotypes

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2017
Background Genomic prediction using high-density (HD) marker genotypes is expected to lead to higher prediction accuracy, particularly for more heterogeneous multi-breed and crossbred populations such as those in sheep and beef cattle, due to providing ...

The Genetic Structures and Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Ear Traits in Maize (Zea mays L.)

Cells, 2023
Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the world’s staple food crops. In order to feed the growing world population, improving maize yield is a top priority for breeding programs. Ear traits are important determinants of maize yield, and are mostly quantitatively

QTL linkage analysis of connected populations using ancestral marker and pedigree information [PDF]

, 2012
The common assumption in quantitative trait locus (QTL) linkage mapping studies that parents of multiple connected populations are unrelated is unrealistic for many plant breeding programs.
