Isolation of three dormancy QTLs as Mendelian factors in rice
Article Abstract:
The chromosomal regions containing the dormancy QTLs qSD1, qSD7-1, and qSD12 are introduced from an accession of weedy rice into a nondormant genetic background to examine component genetic effects and their interactions with time of afterripening (DAR) and a BC2F2 plant was selected to develop the BC4F3 population. Single point analysis detected only qSD7-1 and qSD12 at 10, 30, and 50 DAR in the population, however multiple linear regression analysis detected genetic effects of the three QTLs.

Bayesian mapping of genotype x expression interactions in quantitative and qualitative traits
Article Abstract:
A novel Bayesian gene mapping method, which can simultaneously utilize both molecular marker and gene expression data, is described enabling a quantitative and qualitative phenotype to be expressed as a linear combination of the marker genotype x gene expression interactions. Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling is used to estimate the parameters and the handling of missing genotype or expression data and this method is applied to a real yeast data set with known pathways.
