This study developed an L RM-based robust MtQTL approach, called LRM-RobMtQTL, for the backcross population based on the robust estimation of regression parameters by maximizing the β-likelihood function induced from theβ-divergence with multivariate normal distribution.

Single- and multiple-trait quantitative trait locus analyses for seed oil and protein contents of soybean populations with advanced breeding line background

Soybean seed oil and protein contents are negatively correlated, posing challenges to enhance both traits simultaneously. Previous studies have identified numerous oil and protein QTLs via

Identification of novel putative alleles related to important agronomic traits of wheat using robust strategies in GWAS

Principal component analysis (PCA) is widely used in various genetics studies. In this study, the role of classical PCA (cPCA) and robust PCA (rPCA) was evaluated explicitly in genome-wide

Regression based fast multi-trait genome-wide QTL analysis

A new approach is introduced (called FastMtQTL) for multi-trait QTL analysis based on the assumption of multivariate normal distribution of phenotypic observations that can identify almost the same QTL positions as those identified by the existing methods.

Regression Based Robust QTL Analysis using Flanking Marker with Intercross ( F 2 ) Population

An approach has been developed to robustify the regression based IM by maximizing beta-likelihood function, and the proposed method reduces to the traditional HK method when beta tends to zero.

A simple regression method for mapping quantitative trait loci in line crosses using flanking markers

Methods for mapping QTL based on multiple regression which can be applied using any general statistical package are developed and it is shown that these regression methods produce very similar results to those obtained using maximum likelihood.

Regression Based Robust QTL Analysis for F 2 Population

This research has developed a robust regression based IM approach by maximizing beta-likelihood function for intercross (F 2 ) population by reducing to the HK-IM method when beta → 0.5; otherwise, it shows almost the same results as the classical IM approaches.

PLEIOTROPIC QTL ANALYSIS

It is proved that the combined analysis with canonical variables is asymptotically equivalent to a multitrait maximum likehood analysis, for a pleiotropic QTL whose effect is too small to be detected with certainty.

Robust linear regression based simple interval mapping for QTL analysis with backcross population

A robust regression based SIM approach by maximizing β-likelihood function for Backcross population is developed which is robust against phenotypic outliers and performs almost the same as existing classical methods in absence of outliers.

Multiple trait analysis of genetic mapping for quantitative trait loci.

Taking into account the correlated structure of multiple traits, this joint analysis has several advantages, compared with separate analyses, for mapping QTL, including the expected improvement on the statistical power of the test for QTL and on the precision of parameter estimation.

Multitrait least squares for quantitative trait loci detection.

A multiple-trait QTL mapping method using least squares using multitrait analyses increase the power to detect a pleiotropic QTL and the precision of its location estimate and several approaches to the testing procedure are presented.

Enhanced efficiency of quantitative trait loci mapping analysis based on multivariate complexes of quantitative traits.

The proposed multivariate analogue of QTL contribution to the broad-sense heritability based on interval-specific calculation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the residual covariance matrix allows prediction of the expected QTL detection power and mapping resolution for any subset of the initial multivariate trait complex.

Multiple-trait mapping of quantitative trait loci after selective genotyping using logistic regression.

Analysis of a simulated half-sib experiment shows that logistic regression can estimate the effect and position of a QTL without bias and confirms the increased power achieved by multiple-trait analysis.
