Novel Resampling Improves Statistical Power for Multiple-Trait QTL Mapping

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
Multiple-trait analysis typically employs models that associate a quantitative trait locus (QTL) with all of the traits. As a result, statistical power for QTL detection may not be optimal if the QTL contributes to the phenotypic variation in only a ...

Conserved salt tolerance quantitative trait locus (QTL) in wild and cultivated soybeans

Breeding Science, 2008
In the present study, we investigated salt tolerance heredity in wild soybean, Glycine soja Sieb & Zucc., and compared the salt tolerance quantitative trait locus (QTL) of G. soja with that of Glycine max (L.) Merr. An F2 population (n = 225) derived from a cross between the salt sensitive soybean cultivar Jackson (PI548657) and a salt-tolerant wild ...

Dual Repression by IPA1 Fine‐Tunes OsbZIP79‐Mediated Salt Tolerance in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dual repression by IPA1 fine‐tunes OsbZIP79‐mediated salt tolerance in rice: direct transcriptional inhibition under normal conditions and salt‐induced degradation under stress. This dual mechanism activates OsbZIP79 to regulate Na+/K+ homeostasis and redox balance via downstream genes, enabling optimal salt stress response.

Genetic analysis of the seed dehydration process in maize based on a logistic model

Crop Journal, 2020
Seed moisture at harvest is a critical trait affecting maize quality and mechanized production, and is directly determined by the dehydration process after physiological maturity.

Developing a strain‐dependent susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma in a murine model based on histopathological evidence and genetic context

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using F1 (C57BL/6J/Smad4+/− X CC) mice, we found that partial loss of Smad4 promotes liver carcinogenesis in a strain‐dependent manner, highlighting the importance of genetic modifiers in tumor susceptibility. The use of Collaborative Cross mice provides a valuable platform for uncovering genotype‐specific cancer susceptibilities in preclinical ...

Development and Characterization of Near-Isogenic Lines Revealing Candidate Genes for a Major 7AL QTL Responsible for Heat Tolerance in Wheat

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Wheat is one of the most important food crops in the world, but as a cool-season crop, it is more prone to heat stress, which severely affects crop production and grain quality.

Born this way: Does variation in perinatal limb bone morphology predict adult locomotor repertoire in primates?

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates show a high degree of locomotor diversity that engenders similar variance in limb bone cross‐sectional geometry and bending strength: leaping primates have stronger hindlimb bones whereas suspensory species have stronger forelimb bones.

Genomic Structural Variations Provide Insights Into Litter Size and Teat Number Traits in Hu Sheep

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Here, we conducted whole genome sequencing on 300 Hu sheep with an average depth of 16.51X. Two candidate genes associated with litter size and teat number traits were identified, namely MAST2 and AFDN. ABSTRACT Litter size and the teat number are important economic indicators in sheep production.
