Abstract excerpt
Here we describe a general method for improving computational efficiency in simultaneous mapping of multiple interacting quantitative trait loci (QTL). The method uses a genetic algorithm to search for QTL in the genome instead of an exhaustive enumerative ("step-by-step") search. It can be used together with any method of QTL mapping based on a genomic search, since it only provides a more efficient way to...
