Sentence examples for structure of a linkage from inspiring English sources

The data used in this paper did not have the structure of a linkage mapping study, and thus QTL genotypes could not be inferred with high accuracy.

Because the positions of the marker loci are known, once the position γ of the QTL is given (as an unknown parameter), we can calculate the joint distribution of the m+1 genotypes as a function of γ by using the stochastic structure of the linkage.

In a framework with a flexible structure of spatial linkages, we characterize the model-consistent shock exposure of a local market as the exogenous shift in its production revenues and consumption costs.

For further information on equivalent IBD-sharing structures consider Appendix A. Our primary goal with this paper is to, in such a generally accessible way as possible, formalize and discuss the structure of nonparametric linkage score functions.

Nevertheless, haplotypes which are combinations of alleles (namely, the DNA sequences) at adjacent locations on a chromosome has the potential to provide further insight into the structure of underlying linkage disequilibrium (LD), thus potentially yielding higher power in association studies investigating common and rare variants [ 15, 16].

The results show that the architecture structure of the linkage affects the performance of the cells slightly.

Comparative mapping with Chinook salmon permitted inference of the structure of coho linkage groups.

A particular effort was made to map the centromere of each linkage group using meiogynogenetic progeny in order to determine the acrocentric or metacentric structure of each linkage group.

More detailed description of the structure of homeologous linkage groups, with the addition of numerous additional loci, and sequencing of large BAC fragments mapping to these linkage groups, both in duplicated and apparently not duplicated regions, could be a useful step towards the understanding of the evolution of a tetraploidized genome.

Linkage disequilibrium between SNPs in a gene is taken into account by using simulation based on the pre-calculated linkage disequilibrium structure of a set of reference individuals from the HapMap phase 2 CEU population.

There has been discussion in the literature about how interactions between variants affecting fitness can change the linkage disequilibrium structure of a region, by bringing variants which alter the local recombination rate under indirect selection (Otto and Feldman, 1997).
