    Accuracy of imputation to whole-genome sequence data in Holstein Friesian cattle

    The use of whole-genome sequence data can lead to higher accuracy in genome-wide association studies and genomic predictions. However, to benefit from whole-genome sequence data, a large dataset of sequenced i...

    Microsatellite allele dose and configuration establishment (MADCE): an integrated approach for genetic studies in allopolyploids

    Genetic studies in allopolyploid plants are challenging because of the presence of similar sub-genomes, which leads to multiple alleles and complex segregation ratios. In this study, we describe a novel method...

    Fruit size QTL analysis of an F1 population derived from a cross between a domesticated sweet cherry cultivar and a wild forest sweet cherry

    Maximizing fruit size is critical for profitable sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) production. Yet, despite its importance, little is known about the genetic control of fruit size. The objective of this study was to...

    A Bayesian QTL linkage analysis of the common dataset from the 12thQTLMAS workshop

    To compare the power of various QTL map** methodologies, a dataset was simulated within the framework of 12th QTLMAS workshop. A total of 5865 diploid individuals was simulated, spanning seven generations, with...
