The book provides a detailed\nreview of methods of gene mapping used in association with experimental\ncrosses, as well as genome-wide association studies. Emphasis is placed on\nmodel selection procedures for analyzing data from large-scale genome scans\nbased on specifically designed modifications of the Bayesian information\ncriterion. Features: presents a thorough introduction to the theoretical\nbackground to studies of genetic association (both genetic and statistical); reviews\nthe latest advances in the field; illustrates the properties of methods for\nmapping quantitative trait loci using computer simulations and the analysis of\nreal data; discusses open challenges; includes an extensive statistical\nappendix as a reference for those who are not totally familiar with the\nfundamentals of statistics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2019-03-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781447173809\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4471-5310-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 222\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47661703626892,"sku":"9781447173809","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781447173809.jpg?v=1776433474","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781447173809","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
