The
aim of MCQTL software package is to perform QTL mapping in
multi-cross designs. It allows the analysis of the usual populations
derived from inbred lines and can link the families by assuming that
the QTL locations are the same in all of them. Moreover, a diallel
modelling of the QTL genotypic effect is allowed in multiple related
families. The implemented model is a linear regression model in which
the probabilities of QTL genotypes are derived from multiple marker
data. A composite interval mapping and an iterative QTL mapping are
implemented to deal with multiple QTL models. Marker cofactor
selections by forward or backward stepwise method are implemented as
well as computation of threshold test values by permutation. MCQTL runs
on UNIX operating system. This work was supported by GENOPLANTE project
: "Integrative Tools for Genetics Mapping".
