Synopsis
In Quantitative Trait Loci: Methods and Protocols, a panel of highly experienced statistical geneticists demonstrate in a step-by-step fashion how to successfully analyze quantitative trait data using a variety of methods and software for the detection and fine mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL). Writing for the nonmathematician, these experts guide the investigator from the design stage of a project onwards, providing detailed explanations of how best to proceed with each specific analysis, to find and use appropriate software, and to interpret results. Worked examples, citations to key papers, and variations in method ease the way to understanding and successful studies. Among the cutting-edge techniques presented are QTDT methods, variance components methods, and the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method for joint linkage and segregation analysis., The genetic analysis of quantitative traits in humans began in the early 20th century and now the analytical methods are being refined at an astonishing rate and are being used to analyse comparative qualitative traits and in conjunction with whole-genome sequencing technologies, are yielding exciting results both in agriculture and experimental organisms and in the study of disease. This book covers the latest methodologies available in three main areas; human traits (investigation of QTLs underlying human disease), experimental organisms (as models for human disease), and agriculture (for crop and livestock improvement). Each chapter also includes a detailed description of how to proceed with a specific analysis, including the use of appropriate computer software and programs and where to find them, a guide to interpretation of the results, and worked examples. This book will serve both experienced investigators and students alike, who wish to gain an overview and expertise at the state-of-the-art in QTL analysis.
