Abstract excerpt
Sleep is a complex trait controlled by many genes, the environment, and probably by gene-environment interactions. Among different approaches to the genetics of sleep, analysis of quantitative traits (QTL) has the advantage of being able to detect, along with major genes, minor and/or modifier genes influencing different quantitative aspects of sleep. We have used QTL analysis in two different sets of recombinant...
