Statistical properties of interval mapping methods on quantitative trait loci location: impact on QTL/eQTL analyses

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Quantitative trait loci (QTL) detection on a huge amount of phenotypes, like eQTL detection on transcriptomic data, can be dramatically impaired by the statistical properties of interval mapping methods. One of these major outcomes i...
