Abstract excerpt
Composite interval mapping was used to identify life-span QTL in F2 progeny of three crosses between different pairs of inbred lines. Each inbred line was derived from a different outbred population that had undergone long-term selection for either long or short life span. Microsatellite loci were used as genetic markers, and confidence intervals for QTL location were estimated by bootstrapping. A minimum of 10...
