Differences between members of multigene families and between different alleles can then be associated with differences in the trait of interest, allowing the development of genetic markers for use in marker assisted selection by breeders.
Qualitative sex differences suggest that a (partially) different set of genetic or environmental influences contributes to individual differences in the trait for males and females.
The superscript letters (a, b and c) indicate significant differences in the trait of the recombinants compared with two parents at the level of 0.01.
The superscript letters (a, b and c) indicate significant differences in the trait of the recombinants compared with two parents at a level of 0.01.
We found a significant effect of sex on personality traits (F 5,24) = 4.15, p<.005), that was driven by a significant differences in the trait of openness.
Genome wide association is based on differences in allele frequencies associated with differences in the trait under study.
The specificity of each national racing program may result in differences in the trait, which was measured by earnings.
We hypothesized that contradictory findings could be resolved at the subgroup level and that when comparing RF+ and RF- subgroups, we may find differences in the trait EI facets of emotion expression, impulsiveness and assertiveness.
Finally, the observation that only four of the nine mutations show changes in gene expression in heads of adult flies indicates that only assessing changes in transcript abundance in heads of lines that are genetically divergent for behavioral traits will underestimate the number of transcripts associated with differences in the trait phenotype [ 26, 47, 48].
The ability to map QTL for SAM architecture was independent of whether parental phenotypes showed distinct differences in the trait of interest (Table 1, Table 2, and Figure 2A), supporting the idea that QTL mapping can be successful in populations originating from similar parental phenotypes when transgressive segregation is present.
