Crucially, this representation is sufficiently abstract that it could also be used as a phenotype for several other types of GP in which the ant problem might be ...

But as unexpected as these findings can be, they do say something about our unicellular ancestors and suggest that multicellularity didn’t arise from scratch. Instead, the results, toget ...

Based on the core map for diploid roses (Debener and Mattiesch 1999) we analysed 60 additional markers including 20 AFLP markers, 27 microsatellites, 8 RFLP fragments (scored as dominant markers) and 5 SCAR markers. A total of 365 markers were analysed in the extended data set (Table 1). After the c ...

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.
