Quantitative genomics: exploring the genetic architecture of complex trait predisposition.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jan 2004

Pomp D, Allan M F, Wesolowski S R

Abstract excerpt

Most phenotypes with agricultural or biomedical relevance are multifactorial traits controlled by complex contributions of genetics and environment. Genetic predisposition results from combinations of relatively small effects due to variations within a large number of genes, known as QTL. Well over 200 QTL have been reported for growth and body composition traits in the mouse, which likely represent at least 50...
