The quantitative genetic basis of sex ratio variation in Nasonia vitripennis : a QTL study [PDF]
Our understanding of how natural selection should shape sex allocation is perhaps more developed than for any other trait. However, this understanding is not matched by our knowledge of the genetic basis of sex allocation.

A higher incidence of coronary artery disease is associated with a lower level of HDL-cholesterol. We searched for genetic loci influencing HDL-cholesterol in F2 mice from a cross between MRL/MpJ and SM/J mice.

In Cucurbitaceae crops, the first flower node (FFN) is an important agronomic trait which can impact the onset of maturity, the production of female flowers, and yield. However, the gene responsible for regulating FFN in bitter gourd is unknown. Here, we

Using transcriptome profiling to characterize QTL regions on chicken chromosome 5 [PDF]
Background Although many QTL for various traits have been mapped in livestock, location confidence intervals remain wide that makes difficult the identification of causative mutations. The aim of this study was to test the contribution of microarray data

Comparative Genome-Wide Association Studies of Metabolites and Grain-Related Traits in Common Wheat. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The metabolome is highly diverse and the closest layer to phenotype; therefore, it is commonly regarded as a bridge between the genome and phenome in plants. Here, we performed large‐scale metabolome analysis using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) and 33 grain‐related traits in a diverse panel of natural accessions and

A Bayesian approach to detect QTL affecting a simulated binary and quatitative trait [PDF]
Background - We analyzed simulated data from the 14th QTL-MAS workshop using a Bayesian approach implemented in the program iBay. The data contained individuals genotypes for 10,031 SNPs and phenotyped for a quantitative and a binary trait. Results - For

Flesh firmness (FF) is an important and complex trait for melon breeders and consumers. However, the genetic mechanism underlying FF is unclear. Here, a soft fruit melon (P5) and a hard fruit melon (P10) were crossed to generate F2, and the FF and fruit ...

Segregation between a genetic marker and a locus influencing a quantitative trait in a well delineated population is the basis for success in mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL). To detect bovine chromosome 5 (BTA5) birth weight QTL we genotyped 294 F2
