JAX® QTL mapping Analysis Service
The same QTL analysis we have performed hundreds of times for our own scientists.
Key benefits
- Cross can be performed by you or by JAX® Breeding Services
- Cross offspring are phenotyped and then genotyped with SNPs from our 2,000+ SNP marker panel
- Genotype and phenotype information is analyzed using statistical programs designed by Jackson Laboratory scientists
- A Project Specialist keeps you informed about the progress of your study from start to finish
- Two analysis level options
- Level 1 analysis: a one-dimensional genome scan to detect major QTL for each phenotype (covariates, such as sex and body weight, are addressed) Sample report (.pdf)
- Level 2 analysis: genome-wide two-dimensional scans to detect major QTL and QTL interactions, fit multiple regression models, and identify candidate QTL and covariates. Several plots (including one and two-dimensional scan plots) are generated. Confidence interval and effect plots are generated for each major QTL. Sample report (.pdf)
