RNAs of the piRNA class are generated in the somatic macronucleus from long piRNA precursor transcripts.36 These piRNAs are bound by OTIWI1, then shuttled through the cytoplasm to the developing macronucleus, where they mark specific sequences for retention.36 Simple injection of piRNAs into the par ...

Quantitative trait locus

A quantitative trait locus (QTL) is a section of DNA (the locus) that correlates with variation in a phenotype (the quantitative trait). The QTL typically is linked to, or contains, the genes that control that phenotype. QTLs are mapped by identifying which molecular markers (such as SNPs or AFLPs) correlate with an observed trait. This is often an early step in identifying and sequencing the actual genes that cause the trait variation.Quantitative traits are phenotypes (characteristics) that vary in degree and can be attributed to polygenic effects, i.e., the product of two or more genes, and their environment.
