Mapping quantitative trait loci using multiple linked markers via Residual Maximum Likelihood
Mapping quantitative trait loci in outbred populations is important since development of inbred lines in livestock species is usually not feasible. Traditional genetic mapping methods, such as Least Squares and Maximum Likelihood, cannot fully accommodate complex pedigree structures, and more sophis...
