Bayesian Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping Using Inferred Haplotypes [PDF]
Abstract We describe a fast hierarchical Bayesian method for mapping quantitative trait loci by haplotype-based association, applicable when haplotypes are not observed directly but are inferred from multiple marker genotypes. The method avoids the use of a Monte Carlo Markov chain by employing priors for which the likelihood factorizes ...

A compendium of uniformly processed human gene expression and splicing quantitative trait loci
Many gene expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies have published their summary statistics, which can be used to gain insight into complex human traits by downstream analyses, such as fine mapping and co-localization.

Detection of QTLs controlling heading date in the process of rice development at two environments
Heading date (HD) is a major determinant of the regional and seasonal adaptation of rice varieties. In order to elucidate the quantitative trait loci (QTL) for HD in the process of rice development, a doubled haploid (DH) population was employed to map ...

Threshold and power for Quantitative Trait Locus detection [PDF]
We propose several new methods to calculate threshold and power for Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) detection. They are based on asymptotic theoretical results presented in Rabier et al. (2009) . The asymptotic validity is checked by simulations.

Development of a Next-Generation NIL Library in Arabidopsis Thaliana for Dissecting Complex Traits [PDF]
The identification of the loci and specific alleles underlying variation in quantitative traits is an important goal for evolutionary biologists and breeders.

Linkage disequilibrium fine mapping of quantitative trait loci: A simulation study
Recently, the use of linkage disequilibrium (LD) to locate genes which affect quantitative traits (QTL) has received an increasing interest, but the plausibility of fine mapping using linkage disequilibrium techniques for QTL has not been well studied ...

BackgroundThe cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oil and food crop in the world. Pod- and kernel-related traits are direct factors involved in determining the yield of the peanut. However, the genetic basis underlying pod- and kernel-

Genetic structure and molecular mechanism underlying the stalk lodging traits in maize (Zea mays L.)
Stalk lodging seriously affects yield and quality of crops, and it can be caused by several factors, such as environments, developmental stages, and internal chemical components of plant stalks.
