Gut length intercross data

Description

Data from a mouse intercross experiment on gut length, including both sexes. All individuals carry the Sox10DomSox10^{Dom} mutation.

Usage

gutlength

Format

An object of class cross. See qtl::read.cross() for details.

Details

A mouse intercross between C3HeBFeJ (C3) and C57BL/6J (B6), with one F1 parent carrying the Sox10DomSox10^{Dom} mutation. There are 1068 mice from reciprocal intercrosses. Over 2000 mice were generated, but only those individuals heterozygous at Sox10DomSox10^{Dom} were genotyped and included in the data set. Sox10Sox10 is on chromosome 15, and so that chromosome exhibits an unusual segregation pattern. Some mice received the mutation from their mother and some from their father.

The primary phenotype here is gut length (in cm). The phenotype cross indicates the cross used to generate an animal.

Myocarditis intercross data

Description

Data from a mouse intercross experiment on myocarditis.

Usage

myocard

Format

An object of class cross. See qtl::read.cross() for details.

Details

An intercross between the H-2s congenic mice A.SW and B10.S, with 296 individuals (including both sexes). The mice were injected with purified murine cardiac myosin, and the area of infiltrated myocardium in heart sections was measured. The phenotype is the percent myocarditis.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 backcross data

Description

Data from a backcross experiment on neurofibromatosis type I. All individuals carry the NPcis mutation, received either from their mother or from their father.

Usage

nf1

Format

An object of class cross. See qtl::read.cross() for details.

Details

Backcrosses (C57BL/6J x A/J) x C57BL/6J and C57BL/6J x (A/J x C57BL/6J) with a total of 254 individuals. Individuals received the NPcis mutation from either their mother or their father (indicated by the phenotype from.mom. The major phenotype, affected indicates whether the mice were affected (1) or unaffected (0) with neurofibromatosis type 1.

Interspecific backcross in Drosophila

Description

Data on ovariole number in a backcross between D. simulans and D. sechellia; the majority of individuals were selected to be recombinant in the region of a putative QTL on chromosome 3.

Usage

ovar

Format

An object of class cross. See qtl::read.cross() for details.

Details

The data come from an interspecific Drosophila backcross. D. simulans was crossed to D. sechellia, and the F1F_1 hybrid was crossed back to D. simulans.

The phenotype of interest was ovariole number in females (a measure of fitness). Phenotypes on1 and on2 are the ovariole counts in the left and right gonads. The phenotype onm is the average of the two counts; for many individuals, the ovariole count for one of two gonads was missing, and so onm is missing.

In an initial cross of 402 individuals, 383 had complete phenotype data. Initial genotyping focused on 94 individuals with extreme phenotype.

To increase the resolution of a major QTL identified on chromosome 3, a second cross of approximately 7000 flies was performed, though only 1050 individuals showing a recombination event between two morphological markers, st (bright red eyes) and e (dark brown body), were phenotyped and genotyped; 1038 had complete phenotype data. The aim was to oversample recombinants of the region of the QTL.

There are genotype data for 24 markers on 3 chromosomes. (The fourth chromosome had one marker, but showed no effect and is not included in these data.)

The phenotype cross indicates whether an individual came from the first or second cross.

Alleles "I" and "E" refer to D. simulans and D. sechellia, respectively.

Rainbow trout doubled haploid data

Description

Data from doubled haploid individuals derived from a cross between Oregon State University (OSU) and Clearwater (CW) River rainbow trout clonal lines.

Usage

trout

Format

An object of class cross. See qtl::read.cross() for details.

Details

Doubled haploid individuals were produced from a cross between Oregon State University (OSU) and Clearwater (CW) river rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) clonal lines. Eggs from one of eight outbred females, two from Troutlodge (TL) and six from Spokane (SP), were irradiated to destroy maternal nuclear DNA and fertilized with sperm from a single F1F_1 male. The first embryonic cleavage was blocked by heat shock to restore diploidy. There are a total of 554 individuals, with between 8 and 168 individuals from each of the eight females.

The primary phenotype is time to hatch (tth). An additional "phenotype", female, indicates maternal cytoplasmic environment (the source of the egg).

There are genotype data on 171 markers on 28 linkage groups. The linkage groups are named as in Nichols et al. (2002), though a pair of markers are assigned to linkage group "un", as they don't connect to any of the linkage groups in Nichols et al. (2002).

Note that the data have cross type "dh" (for doubled haploids); in R/qtl they are treated just like a backcross, except that genotypes are referred to as the homozygotes.
