Unveiling the genetic loci for a panicle developmental trait using genome-wide association study in rice
Panicle size has a high correlation with grain yield in rice. There is a bottleneck to identify the additional quantitative trait loci (QTL) for panicle size due to the conventional traits used for QTL mapping. To identify more genetic loci for panicle size, a panicle developmental trait (LNTB, the length from panicle neck-knot to the first primary branch in the rachis) related to panicle size ...
متن کاملBayesian mapping of quantitative trait loci under the identity-by-descent-based variance component model.
Variance component analysis of quantitative trait loci (QTL) is an important strategy of genetic mapping for complex traits in humans. The method is robust because it can handle an arbitrary number of alleles with arbitrary modes of gene actions. The variance component method is usually implemented using the proportion of alleles with identity-by-descent (IBD) shared by relatives. As a result, ...
متن کاملGenome-wide Identification of microRNA Expression Quantitative Trait Loci
Identification of microRNA expression quantitative trait loci (miR-eQTL) can yield insights into regulatory mechanisms of microRNA transcription, and can help elucidate the role of microRNA as mediators of complex traits. Here we present a miR-eQTL mapping study of whole blood from 5,239 individuals, and identify 5,269 cis-miR-eQTLs for 76 mature microRNAs. Forty-nine per cent of cis-miR-eQTLs ...
متن کاملFast genome-wide pedigree quantitative trait loci analysis using MENDEL
The linkage era left a rich legacy of pedigree samples that can be used for modern genome-wide association sequencing (GWAS) or next-generation sequencing (NGS) studies. Family designs are naturally equipped to detect rare variants, control for population stratification, and facilitate the study of parent-of-origin effects. Unfortunately, pedigree likelihoods are notoriously hard to compute, an...
متن کاملBayesian model selection for genome-wide epistatic quantitative trait loci analysis.
The problem of identifying complex epistatic quantitative trait loci (QTL) across the entire genome continues to be a formidable challenge for geneticists. The complexity of genome-wide epistatic analysis results mainly from the number of QTL being unknown and the number of possible epistatic effects being huge. In this article, we use a composite model space approach to develop a Bayesian mode...
