Multi-Parent Population QTL Analysis

Analysis of experimental multi-parent populations to detect regions of the genome (called quantitative trait loci, QTLs) influencing phenotypic traits. The population must be composed of crosses between a set of at least three parents (e.g. factorial design, 'diallel', or nested association mapping). The functions cover data processing, QTL detection, and results visualization. The implemented methodology is described by Garin, Wimmer, Mezmouk, Malosetti and van Eeuwijk (2017) .

mppR: Multi-Parent Population QTL Analysis

mppR is an R package to perform QTL analysis of experimental multi-parent populations. The population must be composed of crosses between a set of at least three parents (e.g. factorial design, 'diallel', or nested association mapping). The functions cover data processing, QTL detection, and results visualization.
