Sentence examples for sweep mapping from inspiring English sources

Both selective sweep mapping and QTL mapping have potential to detect genes under artificial selection during domestication.

Selective sweep mapping thus functions to further delimit regions identified by QTL approaches, and also provides new testable hypotheses about the physiological and biochemical targets of artificial selection.

A receptor of the latter gene (FGFR3) showed evidence of selection in a genome-wide sweep mapping study using FST among dog breeds [ 26].

The combination of QTL mapping from crosses between domesticated species and the wild ancestor with 'selective sweep mapping' thus provides a powerful approach for narrowing down genomic regions that have been targets of artificial selection.

This study is, to our knowledge, the first to investigate the genetics of complex traits using a combined QTL mapping approach and high-throughput-based selective sweep mapping in divergently selected lines.

This study shows for the first time the interest of combining selective sweeps mapping, coding SNP annotation and cis-eQTL analyses for identifying causative genes for a complex trait, in the context of divergent lines selected for this specific trait.

Some arrived from as far away as Washington, D.C. Professionally diverse, our crew included a lawyer, a chimney sweep, a map maker, and a physicist.

The caliphate encompasses half of Syria's land mass, though admittedly the thinly-populated eastern desert half and the impressive black sweep on maps mostly translates to miles of empty sand and occasional mud-brick villages in reality.

The two will start first with a comprehensive 3D mapping sweep before moving on to other aspects of building the service to prepare a autonomous vehicle service for trials.

This approach combining selective sweep analysis and QTL mapping allowed a reduction in the size of the four QTL regions from, on average, 12 Mb to 100 kb, with some of these regions now containing one gene, therefore standing as strong causal positional candidate.

Researchers have used these patterns of decreased variation following a selective sweep to detect and map genetic adaptation in many organisms, including humans.
