A random model approach to interval mapping of quantitative trait loci.

Genetics - 1 Nov 1995

Xu S, Atchley W R

Abstract excerpt

Mapping quantitative trait loci in outbred populations is important because many populations of organisms are noninbred. Unfortunately, information about the genetic architecture of the trait may not be available in outbred populations. Thus, the allelic effects of genes can not be estimated with...
