QTL-based evidence for the role of epistasis in evolution.

Genetical research - 1 Oct 2005

Malmberg Russell L, Mauricio Rodney

Abstract excerpt

The extent to which epistasis contributes to adaptation and speciation has been a controversial topic in evolutionary genetics. One experimental approach to study epistasis is based on quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping using molecular markers. Comparisons can be made among all possible pair-wise combinations of the markers, irrespective of whether an additive QTL is associated with a marker; several software...
