چکیده

Effect of flanking quantitative trait loci (QTL)-marker bracket size on genetic response to marker assisted selection in an outbred population was studied by simulation of a nucleus breeding scheme. In addition, genetic response with marker assisted selection (MAS) from two quantitative trait loci on the same and different chromosome(s) was investigated. QTL that explained either 5% or 10% of phenotypic variance were simulated. A polygenic component was simulated in addition to the quantitative trait loci. In total, 35% of the phenotypic variance was due to genetic factors. The trait was measured on females only. Having smaller marker brackets flanking the QTL increased the genetic response from MAS selection. This was due to the greater ability to trace the QTL transmission from one generation to the next with the smaller flanking QTL-marker bracket, which increased the accuracy of estimation of the QTL allelic effects. Greater negative covariance between effects at both QTL was observed when two QTL were located on the same chromosome compared to different chromosomes. Genetic response with MAS was greater when the QTL were on the same chromosome in the early generations and greater when they were on different chromosomes in the later generations of MAS.

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 ...

Effects of Marker Density, Number of Quantitative Trait Loci and Heritability of Trait on Genomic Selection Accuracy

The success of genomic selection mainly depends on the extent of linkage disequilibrium (LD) between markers and quantitative trait loci (QTL), number of QTL and heritability (h2) of the traits. The extent of LD depends on the genetic structure of the population and marker density. This study was conducted to determine the effects of marker density, level of heritability, number of QTL, and to ...

The Pattern of Linkage Disequilibrium in Livestock Genome

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is bases of genomic selection, genomic marker imputation, marker assisted selection (MAS), quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, parentage testing and whole genome association studies. The Particular alleles at closed loci have a tendency to be co-inherited. In linked loci this pattern leads to association between alleles in population which is known as LD. Two metr...

Genome-wide evaluation uses the associations of a large number of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers across the whole genome and then combines the statistical methods with genomic data to predict the genetic values. Genomic predictions relieson linkage disequilibrium (LD) between genetic markers and quantitative trait loci (QTL) in a population. Methods that use all markers simultaneo...
