Selective genotyping is the marker assay of only the more extreme phenotypes for a
quantitative trait and is intended to increase the efficiency of quantitative trait loci (QTL) …

A strategy of multi-step minimal conditional regression analysis has been developed to
determine the existence of statistical testing and parameter estimation for a quantitative trait …

Maximum likelihood methods for the mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) have been
investigated in an F2 population using simulated data. The use of adjacent (flanking) marker …

One of the key factors contributing to the success of a quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping
experiment is the precision with which QTL positions can be estimated. We show, using …

High-density restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and allozyme linkage maps
have been developed in several plant species. These maps make it technically feasible to …

The etiology of complex diseases is heterogeneous. The presence of risk alleles in one or
more genetic loci affects the function of a variety of intermediate biological pathways …

Mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) is usually conducted with a single line cross. The
power of such QTL mapping depends highly on the two parental lines. If the two lines are …

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis in outbred populations uses historical recombinations
to detect and fine map quantitative trait loci (QTL). Our objective was to evaluate the effect of …

We studied the efficiency of recurrent selection based solely on marker genotypes (marker-
based selection), in order to increase favourable allele frequency at 50 previously detected …

A multimarker linkage disequilibrium mapping method was developed for the fine mapping
of quantitative trait loci (QTL) using a dense marker map. The method compares the …
