Empirical threshold values for quantitative trait mapping.
The detection of genes that control quantitative characters is a problem of great interest to the genetic mapping community. Methods for locating these quantitative trait loci (QTL) relative to maps of genetic markers are now widely used. This paper addresses an issue common to all QTL mapping methods, that of determining an appropriate threshold value for declaring significant QTL effects. An ...
متن کاملLocating multiple interacting quantitative trait loci using robust model selection
One of the most popular criteria for model selection is the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC). It is based on an asymptotic approximation using Bayes rule when the sample size tends to infinity and the dimension of the model is fixed. Although it works well in classical applications, it performs less satisfactorily for high dimensional problems, i.e. when the number of regressors is very lar...
متن کاملOn locating multiple interacting quantitative trait loci in intercross designs.
A modified version (mBIC) of the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) has been previously proposed for backcross designs to locate multiple interacting quantitative trait loci. In this article, we extend the method to intercross designs. We also propose two modifications of the mBIC. First we investigate a two-stage procedure in the spirit of empirical Bayes methods involving an adaptive (i.e.,...
متن کاملStatistical power of expression quantitative trait loci for mapping of complex trait loci in natural populations.
A number of recent genomewide surveys have found numerous QTL for gene expression, often with intermediate to high heritability values. As a result, there is currently a great deal of interest in genetical genomics--that is, the combination of genomewide expression data and molecular marker data to elucidate the genetics of complex traits. To date, most genetical genomics studies have focused o...
متن کاملStatistical Methods for Latent Class Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping
Identifying the genetic basis of complex traits is an important problem with the potential to impact a broad range of biological endeavors. A number of effective statistical methods are available for quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping that allow for the efficient identification of multiple, potentially interacting, loci under a variety of experimental conditions. Although proven useful in hu...
