Relationships between water-use traits and photosynthesis in Brassica oleracea resolved by quantitative genetic analysis

, 2005
The genetic control of water-use and photosynthetic traits in Brassica oleracea is resolved by genetic analysis of quantitative trait loci (QTL). Variations in leaf conductance, photosynthetic assimilation rate, leaf thickness and leaf nitrogen content ...

Spatially structured genetic variation in a broadcast spawning bivalve: quantitative vs. molecular traits [PDF]

, 2003
Understanding the origin, maintenance and significance of phenotypic variation is one of the central issues in evolutionary biology. An ongoing discussion focuses on the relative roles of isolation and selection as being at the heart of genetically based

Structured antedependence models for genetic analysis of repeated measures on multiple quantitative traits

, 2003
Simultaneous analysis of correlated traits that change with time is an important issue in genetic analyses. Several methodologies have already been proposed for the genetic analysis of longitudinal data on single traits, in particular random regression ...

Fetal testosterone and autistic traits [PDF]

, 2009
Studies of amniotic testosterone in humans suggest that fetal testosterone (fT) is related to specific (but not all) sexually dimorphic aspects of cognition and behaviour.

Accuracy of multi-trait genomic selection using different methods [PDF]

, 2011
Background Genomic selection has become a very important tool in animal genetics and is rapidly emerging in plant genetics. It holds the promise to be particularly beneficial to select for traits that are difficult or expensive to measure, such as traits
