Also, in order to enable genetic analyses in pedigrees, the data should be of high quality; although incorrect SNP genotypes may not be directly apparent, they are likely to result in erroneous 123 119 Page 2 of 10 phasing and IBD estimates and in inaccuracies in QTL mapping. In diploid ...
Plant pedigrees often form what we describe as apedigree net, whereby there is structure to the graph but it’s not as simple as traditional top-down pedigree representation that is seen in humans and to a lesser extent in farmed animals (Figure2).This abstract representation does include a ...
In this case errors are propagated through an ungenotyped male partner of one of the 'bad' individuals, to several of his offspring, who are not directly related to the true 'bad' individual. This propagation of errors through incomplete data points obfuscates the identification of the true ...
. Because of this, we did not correct allele frequency in this study, but we wish to highlight the fact that the imputation accuracies obtained here may not directly reflect the value of the genetic data for downstream analyses (e.g., genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) or GWA...
P1×P2. We assume that QTL contributions to trait formation do not depend on the population origin of the individuals, and that crossed initial populations differ by unequal QTL allele frequencies,p1forP1andp2forP2[3,23]. In addition, we assume that the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is carried ...
a. Studies of identical twins show that hand preferences are not directly inherited like eye colour or skin colour. b. Handedness is influenced by a single gene on the X chromosome. c. T Which factor helps to expl...
focus pedigrees through the iteratively updated parameters, the lack of parametrization of allele identity not only meant that parental genotypes could not be inferred, but also reduced the quality of haplotype inference in offspring, as linkage patterns between siblings could not be used directly. ...
