Description
Approximate positions of quantitative trait loci (QTL) based on data released
by the Jackson Lab Mouse Genome Informatics database (MGI) on 8 Nov. 2004.
Method
Most of the QTL records contain an STS marker that exhibits the peak
logarithm-of-odds (LOD) score for the marker-phenotype association.
This peak marker is represented by a thick (tall) bar.
For records that have two flanking STS markers (with or without peak
LOD score data), the QTL region is represented by a thinner bar spanning the
interval between the two markers.
Where both flanking markers and peak LOD score are available, the thick bar is
superimposed upon the thinner bar.
