چکیده

A transmission disequilibrium test for quantitative traits which combines association and linkage analyses is currently available in several dedicated software packages. We describe how to implement such models in linear mixed model procedures that are available in widely used statistical packages such as SPSS. We also briefly mention a few extensions of the model that become naturally available once the model is implemented in such procedures.

Association Analysis for Important Quantitative and Morphological Traits in Cultivars and Advanced Lines of Soybean (Glycine max (L.)) using Microsatellite Markers

IExtended Abstract Introduction and Objective: The economic value of a genotype depends on its various traits and therefore the accurate knowledge of genetic behavior and identification of genomic locus involved in controlling these traits can help the breeder to improve genotypes. Material and Methods: In this study, the relationship between microsatellite markers with some important agrono...

Identification of genomic loci controlling phenologic and morphologic traits in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genotypes using association analysis

Association mapping is a technique with high resolution for QTL mapping based on linkage disequilibrium and has shown more promising for describing genetically complex traits. In addition, it is a powerful tool for describing complex agronomic traits and identifying alleles that can contribute to enhance the desired traits. In this study, whole genome association mapping was used in a set of 14...

Association mapping for resistance to powdery mildew in oriental tobacco (Nicotiana tabaccum L.) germplasm

Powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe cichoracearum is an important fungal disease which threatens tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) production. The objective of this study was to determine DNA markers linked to genomic regions associated with resistance to powdery mildew in tobacco through the association mapping approach. Seventy tobacco geno-types were fingerprinted using 26 simple se-quence repeat...
