Abstract Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been widely used in genetic dissection of complex traits. However, common methods are all based on a fixed-SNP-effect mixed linear model (MLM) and single marker analysis, such as efficient analysis (EMMA). These require Bonferroni correction for multiple tests, which often is too conservative when the number markers extremely large. To address this concern, we proposed random-SNP-effect MLM (RMLM) multi-locus RMLM (MRMLM) GWAS. The simply...

The mixed linear model has been widely used in genome-wide association studies (GWAS), but its application to multi-locus GWAS analysis not explored and assessed. Here, we implemented a fast random-SNP-effect EMMA (FASTmrEMMA) for GWAS. is built on random single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) effects new algorithm. This algorithm whitens the covariance matrix of polygenic K environmental noise, specifies number nonzero eigenvalues as one. first chooses all putative quantitative trait...

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) entails examining a large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in limited sample with hundreds individuals, implying variable selection problem the high dimensional dataset. Although many single-locus GWAS approaches under polygenic background and population structure controls have been widely used, some significant loci fail to be detected. In this study, we used an iterative modified-sure independence screening (ISIS) approach reducing SNPs...

Multilocus genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have become the state-of-the-art procedure to identify quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs) associated with complex traits. However, implementation of multilocus model in GWAS is still difficult. In this study, we integrated least angle regression empirical Bayes perform under polygenic background control. We used an algorithm transformation that whitened covariance matrix K and environmental noise. Markers on one chromosome were included...

Mapping multiple QTL is a typical problem of variable selection in an oversaturated model because the potential number can be substantially larger than sample size. Currently, still most effective approach to mapping QTL, although further research needed. An alternative analyzing shrinkage estimation which all candidate variables are included but their estimated effects forced shrink toward zero. In contrast usual where shrunk by same factor, we develop Bayesian method that allows factor...

Although nonparametric methods in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are robust quantitative trait nucleotide (QTN) detection, the absence of polygenic background control single-marker scans results a high false positive rate. To overcome this issue, we proposed an integrated method for multi-locus GWAS. First, new model transformation was used to whiten covariance matrix K and environmental noise. Using transferred model, Kruskal–Wallis test along with least angle regression then select...

Abstract Background Recent developments in technology result the generation of big data. In genome-wide association studies (GWAS), we can get tens million SNPs that need to be tested for with a trait interest. Indeed, this poses great computational challenge. There is developing fast algorithms GWAS methodologies. These must ensure high power QTN detection, accuracy estimation and low false positive rate. Results Here, accelerated mrMLM algorithm by using GEMMA idea, matrix transformations...

The inheritance of most human diseases and agriculturally important traits is controlled by many genes with small effects. Identifying these genes, while simultaneously controlling false positives, challenging. Among available statistical methods, the mixed linear model (MLM) has been flexible powerful for population structure individual unequal relatedness (kinship), two common causes spurious associations. introduction compressed MLM (CMLM) method provided additional opportunities...

Previous studies have reported that some important loci are missed in single-locus genome-wide association (GWAS), especially because of the large phenotypic error field experiments. To solve this issue, multi-locus GWAS methods been recommended. However, only a few software packages for available. Therefore, we developed an R named mrMLM v4.0.2. This integrates mrMLM, FASTmrMLM, FASTmrEMMA, pLARmEB, pKWmEB, and ISIS EM-BLASSO by our lab. There four components v4.0.2, including dataset...

Summary Improving cold tolerance at the flowering stage (CTF) in rice is crucial for minimising yield loss, making identification and application of cold‐tolerant genes QTLs imperative effective molecular breeding. The long lead time, dependence on treatment conditions, inherent complexity trait make studying genetic basis CTF challenging. To date, fine‐mapping or cloning specific to has not yet been achieved. In this study, single segment substitution lines (SSSLs) were constructed using...

Many commercial inbred lines are available in crops. A large amount of genetic variation is preserved among these lines. The genealogical history the usually well documented. However, quantitative trait loci (QTL) responsible for variances largely unexplored due to lack statistical methods. In this study, we show that pedigree information along with values and marker can be used map QTL without need further crossing experiments. We develop a Monte Carlo method estimate locus-specific...
