Genetic analysis of NIDDM. The study of quantitative traits.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many studies are in progress worldwide to elucidate the genetics of NIDDM. Nevertheless, few articles are available that combine the interdisciplinary fields of medicine, genetics, physiology, and statistics in order to provide the scientific rationale for such an endeavor. Here we describe the methodology and background necessary to study the genetics of NIDDM and discuss how to analyze the data. We also provide a detailed bibliography for researchers and a glossary for those who are not experts in the field. In particular, we wish to emphasize the analysis of intermediate quantitative traits as a means to dissect the genetic basis of NIDDM.

Marginal Analysis of A Population-Based Genetic Association Study of Quantitative Traits with Incomplete Longitudinal Data
A common study to investigate gene-environment interaction is designed to be longitudinal and population-based. Data arising from longitudinal association studies often contain missing responses. Naive analysis without taking missingness into account may produce invalid inference, especially when the missing data mechanism depends on the response process. To address this issue in the ana...

متن کاملGenetic Variation within Iranian Iris Species Using Morphological Traits
Iris belongs toIridaceae family and it is monocotyledon. Iris is one of the important ornamental and medicinal plants. 34 iris genotypes (14 species) collected from different provinces of Iran were planted at National Institute of Ornamental Plants (NIOP) Iran. All of the species evaluated for 15 quantitative traits and 30 qualitative traits. Results showed that the highest positive correlation...
متن کاملLinkage analysis of microsatellite markers on chromosome 5 in an F2 population of Japanese quail to identify quantitative trait loci affecting carcass traits
An F2 Japanese quail population was developed by crossing two strains (wild and white) to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) for performance and carcass traits. A total of 472 F2 birds were reared and slaughtered at 42 days of age. Performance and carcass traits were measured on all of the F2 individuals. Parental (P0), F1 and F2 individuals were genotyped with 3 microsatellites from quail chrom...
