Abstract excerpt
Quantitative variation underlies normal as well as pathological traits, and large part of this variability is under the control of genetic loci. Thanks to a better understanding of the extent and nature of human genetic variability and the subsequent availability of an increasing number of genetic markers, genetic mapping of several such quantitative trait loci, or QTLs, has been accomplished in the past 20 years...
