Abstrakt: | Motivation: Multi-parent populations (MPPs) are popular for QTL mapping because they combine wide genetic diversity in parents with easy control of population structure, but a limited number of software tools for QTL mapping are specifically developed for general MPP designs. Results: We developed an R package called statgenMPP, adopting a unified identity-by-descent (IBD)-based mixed model approach for QTL analysis in MPPs. The package offers easy-to-use functionalities of IBD calculations, mixed model solutions and visualizations for QTL mapping in a wide range of MPP designs, including diallele, nested-association mapping populations, multi-parent advanced genetic inter-cross populations and other complicated MPPs with known crossing schemes. Availability and Implementation: The R package statgenMPP is open-source and freely available on CRAN at https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=statgenMPP. Supplementary Information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online. (© The Author(s) 2022. Published by Oxford University Press.) |
