Pleiotropy, epistasis and the genetic architecture of quantitative traits [PDF]
Nature Reviews GeneticsPleiotropy (whereby one genetic polymorphism affects multiple traits) and epistasis (whereby non-linear interactions between genetic polymorphisms affect the same trait) are fundamental aspects of the genetic architecture of quantitative traits.

Quantitative Traits of Interest in Apple Breeding and Their Implications for Selection. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Apple breeding is a laborious and long-lasting process that requires qualified resources, land, time, and funds. In this study, more than 5000 F1 apple hybrids from direct and testcrosses were analyzed.

Epistasis and quantitative traits: using model organisms to study gene–gene interactions
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2013 The role of epistasis in the genetic architecture of quantitative traits is controversial, despite the biological plausibility that nonlinear molecular interactions underpin the genotype–phenotype map.

Pleiotropy Analysis of Quantitative Traits at Gene Level by Multivariate Functional Linear Models
Genetic Epidemiology, 2015 In genetics, pleiotropy describes the genetic effect of a single gene on multiple phenotypic traits. A common approach is to analyze the phenotypic traits separately using univariate analyses and combine the test results through multiple comparisons ...

Association analysis of some morphological traits of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum var. Durum Desf) in rainfed and supplementary irrigation conditions using SSR molecular marker [PDF]
بیوتکنولوژی و بیوشیمی غلات, 2022 Introduction: Durum wheat is one of the most important crops in the world. Various environmental stresses such as drought stress can affect grain yield. Drought stress is one of the most important and common causes of wheat yield decline in most parts of
