The phrase "a range of loci" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to genetics, biology, or any field discussing multiple locations or points of interest.
Example: "The study examined a range of loci associated with the genetic traits of the population."
Alternatives: "a variety of loci" or "multiple loci".
However, in one extensive study examining recombination rates across a diversity of studies involving multi-locus sequence typing from a variety of organisms (and therefore across a range of loci), Pérez-Losada et al. [18] estimated a wide range of recombination rates similar to those modeled here.
Although we used a range of loci identified from the literature and from databases, we specifically screened microsatellite markers that have been previously mapped to known chromosome arms in O. mykiss (Guyomard et al. 2006; Rexroad et al. 2008).
In conclusion, a population genetic approach has allowed host assignment for C. jejuni for which host-specific markers are unavailable but host species populations are differentiated by allele frequency at a range of loci.
The analyses laid out in Devlin et al. (28) cannot be precise when predicting the number of loci with common variants of modest impact on risk (0.8< risk <1.2); the modelling is consistent with a range of loci from zero to many thousands.
We tested a range of locus (100 to 1000 bp) and genotype thresholds (1 to 120%) and selected the pair of values that simultaneously minimized the mismatch error rate, minimized the probability of misscoring a presence allele (ε1.0 error rate), and maximized the number of loci retained.
We then investigate the power of both one-stage method and mixed two-stage method to detect interacting disease loci for a range of two-locus epistatic models in a case control study design.
A range of resistance loci against different races of Xanthomonas oryzae pv.
Despite the suggestions from early naturalists that Huia were highly territorial and that the species had limited dispersal capability, no evidence for population genetic structure was detected using a range of nuclear loci.
Antimicrobial substances target a range of cellular loci, from the cytoplasmic membrane to respiratory functions, enzymes, and the genetic material [ 21].
Observed allele frequencies and effect-size parameters can also be estimated for a range of susceptibility loci (sensu [ 31]), and then compared to the expected intermediate allele frequencies predicted by different models of host-parasite coevolution.
To validate the map ordering of CRI-MAP, markers belonging to a large linkage group with a range of informative loci (LG8 - established by AUTOGROUP in CRI-MAP) were chosen to build an independent sex-average comprehensive linkage map with CarthaGène version 1.0 which incorporates an EM (expectation-maximization) algorithm and a local search technique to build a maximum likelihood map [ 26].
