Description

This volume details state-of-art eQTL analysis, where interdisciplinary researchers are provided both theoretical and practical guidance to eQTL analysis and interpretation. Chapters guide readers through methods and tools for eQTL and QTL analysis and the usage of such analysis in various scenarios. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, eQTL Analysis: Methods and Protocols to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
