Quantitative trait locus analysis for pod- and kernel-related traits in the cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.)

BMC Genetics, 2016
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-

Quantitative Trait Locus and Genetical Genomics Analysis Identifies Putatively Causal Genes for Fecundity and Brooding in the Chicken

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Life history traits such as fecundity are important to evolution because they make up components of lifetime fitness. Due to their polygenic architectures, such traits are difficult to investigate with genetic mapping.

A major QTL corresponding to the Rk locus for resistance to root-knot nematodes in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.). [PDF]

, 2016
Key messageGenome resolution of a major QTL associated with the Rk locus in cowpea for resistance to root-knot nematodes has significance for plant breeding programs and R gene characterization. Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.

A compendium of uniformly processed human gene expression and splicing quantitative trait loci

Nature Genetics, 2021
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.

Identification of QTL Controlling Flooding Tolerance in Reducing Soil Conditions in Maize (Zea mays L.) Seedlings

Plant Production Science, 2006
We investigated the tolerance to flooding in reducing conditions of five maize inbred lines and identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL) for the trait. Flooding treatment with 0.1% to 0.4% starch solution for 14 d reduced soil redox potential to about

Honesty, power and bootstrapping in composite interval quantitative trait locus mapping [PDF]

, 2013
In a typical composite interval mapping experiment, the probability of obtaining false QTL is likely to be at least an order of magnitude greater than the nominal experiment-wise Type I error rate, as set by permutation test.

On quantitative trait locus mapping with an interference phenomenon

TEST, 2013
We consider the likelihood ratio test (LRT) process related to the test of the absence of QTL (a QTL denotes a gene with quantitative effect on a trait) on the interval [0, T] representing a chromosome. The observation is the trait and the composition of the genome at some locations called "markers". We focus on the interference phenomenon, i.e.

A Genome Scan for Quantitative Trait Locus by Environment Interactions for Production Traits [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2007
Genotype by environment interactions between milk production traits and production level have often been observed. To increase the power of quantitative trait loci (QTL) detection, QTL by environment interaction was included in QTL analyses for the milk, protein, and fat yields.
