Abstract excerpt
Many complex traits, including susceptibility to lung cancer, are controlled by multiple genes--quantitative trait loci (QTLs). We facilitated the mapping of QTLs by making use of recombinant congenic strains (RCS), a system of mouse inbred strains in which the genetic complexity is reduced, and by applying MQM-mapping (multiple-QTL models or marker-QTL-marker), a multilocus method with an increased power of...
