QTL analysis and genomewide mutagenesis in mice: complementary genetic approaches to the dissection of complex traits.
Quantitative genetics and quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping have undergone a revolution in the last decade. Progress in the next decade promises to be at least as rapid, and strategies for fine-mapping QTLs and identifying underlying genes will be radically revised. In this Commentary we address several key issues: first, we revisit a perennial challenge--how to identify individual genes a...
متن کاملIdentification of Nitrogen Use Efficiency Genes in Barley: Searching for QTLs Controlling Complex Physiological Traits
Over the past half century, the use of nitrogen (N) fertilizers has markedly increased crop yields, but with considerable negative effects on the environment and human health. Consequently, there has been a strong push to reduce the amount of N fertilizer used by maximizing the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of crops. One approach would be to use classical genetics to improve the NUE of a crop p...
متن کاملStatistical method for mapping QTLs for complex traits based on two backcross populations
Most important agronomic and quality traits of crops are quantitative in nature. The genetic variations in such traits are usually controlled by sets of genes called quantitative trait loci (QTLs), and the interactions between QTLs and the environment. It is crucial to understand the genetic architecture of complex traits to design efficient strategies for plant breeding. In the present study, ...
متن کاملInterval mapping of QTLs controlling some morphological traits in pea.
A linkage map of pea was constructed based on a 104 RIL population derived from the cross combination Wt10245 x Wt11238. The map, which consisted of 204 morphological, isozyme, AFLP, ISSR, STS, CAPS and RAPD markers, was used for interval mapping of the QTLs controlling the stem length and internode number of pea. In the characterization of a given QTL, we included an identification of its posi...
متن کاملAnalysis of QTLs for Reproductive Development Soybean using Recombinant Inbred Lines and Seed Quality Traits in
physiologica]ly active substances. Howeyer, most of the genomic and economic traits in soybean are quantitatiye, controlled by multiple genes and easity affected by environmental conditions. Based on recombinant inbred lines (Fs), a genetic linkage map with 177 RFLP, 150 SSR, 28 AFLP markers and 5 phenotypic markers was censtructed. The map covered a distance of 2663.6 cM of the soybean genome ...
