三倍体胚乳性状遗传模型的上位性分析

    基于双列杂交体系提出一个遗传模型分析三倍体胚乳性状直接和母体上位性效应,直接加性、显性效应,细胞质效应,以及母体加性和显性效应.并运用混合线形模型分析该遗传模型.用最小范数二阶无偏估算法 (MINQUE) 估算单性状的方差分量和性状间的协方差分量.用蒙特卡罗模拟检测遗传参数的估算和模型的稳定性.模拟分析同时应用于双列杂交的平衡设计和非平衡设计.模拟结果显示在估算单性状的方差和性状间的协方差时,平衡设计和非平衡设计没有显著差异.通过估算实际水稻种子性状数据,说明在经典数量遗传研究中,加加上位变异分析是可行的.

Analysis of epistasis: A genetic model for triploid endosperm traits

A genetic model for triploid endosperm traits was proposed on the basis of diallel cross system to analyze additive by additive epistasis of direct effect (AA) and maternal effect (AmAm) along with direct additive effect, dominance effect, cytoplasm effect, as well as maternal additive and dominance effects. Monte Carlo simulations were conducted to test the estimation of genetic parameters and robust of this genetic model. Unbiased estimation of the variance components for single trait and covariance components between two traits can be obtained by using minimum norm quadratic unbiased estimation (MINQUE) method for both balanced design and unbalanced design without significant difference. A worked example was used to illuminate the application of analyzing additive by additive epistatic variation.
