Identification of QTL-by-environment interaction by controlling polygenic background effect.

Abstract excerpt

The quantitative trait loci (QTL)-by-environment (Q × E) interaction effect is hard to detect because there are no effective ways to control the genomic background. In this study, we propose a linear mixed model that simultaneously analyzes data from multiple environments to detect Q × E interactions. This model incorporates two different kinship matrices derived from the genome-wide markers to control both main...
