Abstract excerpt
Selective genotyping (i.e., genotyping of individuals that are extreme for a quantitative trait) has been undertaken in many studies but has usually been limited to one trait of interest. This paper outlines the implications of selective genotyping when applied to a daughter design. Formulas are presented that enable unbiased estimation of QTL effects for the selectively genotyped and correlated traits. Formulas...
