... Genes which are carried on the X chromosome are said to be sex-linked. It is easy to spot recessive defects in genes located on the X chromosome because the genes are expressed more frequently in males. This occurs because males normally have only one X chromosome. Males therefore have all genes loc ...

Quantitative trait locus

A quantitative trait locus (QTL) is a section of DNA (the locus) that correlates with variation in a phenotype (the quantitative trait). The QTL typically is linked to, or contains, the genes that control that phenotype. QTLs are mapped by identifying which molecular markers (such as SNPs or AFLPs) correlate with an observed trait. This is often an early step in identifying and sequencing the actual genes that cause the trait variation.Quantitative traits are phenotypes (characteristics) that vary in degree and can be attributed to polygenic effects, i.e., the product of two or more genes, and their environment.
