Mapping resistant QTLs for rice sheath blight disease with a doubled haploid population
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015 Sheath blight (SB) disease, caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kühn, is one of the most serious diseases causing rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield loss worldwide. A doubled haploid (DH) population was constructed from a cross between a japonica variety CJ06 and an ...

Genetic structure and molecular mechanism underlying the stalk lodging traits in maize (Zea mays L.)
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2023 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.

Threshold and power for Quantitative Trait Locus detection [PDF]
, 2010 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.

A candidate regulatory variant at the TREM gene cluster associates with decreased Alzheimer's disease risk and increased TREML1 and TREM2 brain gene expression [PDF]
, 2016 Introduction: We hypothesized that common Alzheimer's disease (AD)-associated variants within the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid (TREM) gene cluster influence disease through gene expression.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Gold bipyramids can act as efficient plasmonic nanoheaters, but they often reshape during laser heating. This study shows that oxygen nanobubbles drive oxidative etching and that surface ligands control stability. CTAB‐ and citrate‐coated particles blunt and lose optical performance, whereas polystyrene sulfonate preserves shape and heating by ...

Linkage disequilibrium fine mapping of quantitative trait loci: A simulation study
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2003 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 ...

Multiple-line inference of selection on quantitative traits
, 2015 Trait differences between species may be attributable to natural selection. However, quantifying the strength of evidence for selection acting on a particular trait is a difficult task.

Quantitative trait locus analysis for hemostasis and thrombosis [PDF]
Mammalian Genome, 2008 Susceptibility to thrombosis varies in human populations as well as many in inbred mouse strains. The objective of this study was to characterize the genetic control of thrombotic risk on three chromosomes. Previously, utilizing a tail-bleeding/rebleeding assay as a surrogate of hemostasis and thrombosis function, three mouse chromosome substitution ...

Response of polygenic traits under stabilising selection and mutation when loci have unequal effects [PDF]
, 2015 We consider an infinitely large population under stabilising selection and mutation in which the allelic effects determining a polygenic trait vary between loci.
