Functional Mapping
A statistical model for mapping dynamic genes
Recall: Interval mapping for a univariate trait
Simple regression model for univariate trait
Phenotype = Genotype + Error
yi
=
xij + ei
xi is the indicator for QTL genotype
j is the mean for genotype j
ei ~ N(0, 2)
! QTL genotype is unobservable (missing data)
A simulation example (F2)
The overall trait distribution is composed of three distributions, each one coming from
one of the three QTL genotypes, QQ, Qq, and qq.

Tree growth
Looks mess, but there
are simple rules
underlying the
complexity.
The dynamics of gene expression
• Gene expression displays in a dynamic fashion
throughout lifetime.
• There exist genetic factors that govern the
development of an organism involving:
– Those constantly expressed throughout the lifetime (called
deterministic genes)
– Those periodically expressed (e.g., regulation genes)
• Also environment factors such as nutrition, light and
temperature.
• We are interested in identifying which gene(s)
govern(s) the dynamics of a developmental trait using
a procedure called Functional Mapping.

Mapping methods for dynamic traits
• Traditional approach: treat traits measured at each time point as a
univariate trait and do mapping with traditional QTL mapping
approaches such as interval or composite interval mapping.
• Limitations:
– Single trait model ignores the dynamics of the gene expression
change over time, and is too simple without considering the
underlying biological developmental principle.
• A better approach: Incorporate the biological principle into a
mapping procedure to understand the dynamics of gene expression
using a procedure called Functional Mapping (pioneered by Wu
and group).
Functional Mapping (FunMap)
A general framework pioneered by Dr. Wu and his
colleagues, to map QTLs that affect the pattern and
form of development in time course
- Ma et al., Genetics 2002
- Wu et al., Genetics 2004 (highlighted in Nature
Reviews Genetics)
- Wu and Lin, Nature Reviews Genetics 2006
While traditional genetic mapping is a combination between
classic genetics and statistics, functional mapping combines
genetics, statistics and biological principles.

Testing QTL effect: Global test
• Instead of testing the mean difference at every time points for
different genotypes, we test the difference of the curve
parameters.
• The existence of QTL is tested by
• H0 means the three mean curves overlap and there is no QTL
effect.
• Likelihood ratio test with permutation to assess significance.

LR  2[log L()  log L()]
where the notation “~” and “^” indicate parameters estimated
under the null and the alternative hypothesis, respectively.
Testing QTL effect: Regional test
• Regional test: to test at which time period [t1,t2] the
detect QTL triggers an effect, we can test the
difference of the area under the curve (AUC) for
different QTL genotype, i.e.,

Joint model for the mean vector
• We developed a joint modeling approach with growth and
death phases are modeled by different functions.
• The growth phase is modeled by logistic growth curve to fit
the universal growth law .
• The dead phase is modeled by orthogonal Legendre function to
increase the fitting flexibility.

Advantages of Functional Mapping
• Incorporate biological principles of growth and development
into genetic mapping, thus, increasing biological relevance of
QTL detection
• Provide a quantitative framework for hypothesis tests at the
interplay between gene action and developmental pattern
- When does a QTL turn on?
- When does a QTL turn off?
- What is the duration of genetic expression of a QTL?
- How does a growth QTL pleiotropically affect developmental events?
• The mean-covariance structures are modeled by parsimonious
parameters, increasing the precision, robustness and stability of
parameter estimation
Functional Mapping:
toward high-dimensional biology
• A new conceptual model for genetic
mapping of complex traits
• A systems approach for studying
sophisticated biological problems
• A framework for testing biological
hypotheses at the interplay among genetics,
development, physiology and biomedicine
Functional Mapping:
Simplicity from complexity
• Estimating fewer biologically meaningful
parameters that model the mean vector,
• Modeling the structure of the variance
matrix by developing powerful statistical
methods, leading to few parameters to be
estimated,
• The reduction of dimension increases the
power and precision of parameter
estimation
