[Analysis of quantitative trait loci using hybrid pedigrees: quantitative traits of animals].

Abstract excerpt

A method is proposed for analysis of quantitative traits in animal hybrid pedigrees formed by crosses between outbred lines differing in allele frequencies of the genes controlling the trait studied. The method is based on the decomposition of trait variances into components and uses maximization of the likelihood function for estimating model parameters, which allows the estimation of additive and dominance...
