Multiscale Genomic Analysis of the Corticolimbic System: Uncovering the Molecular and Anatomic Substrates of Anxiety-Related Behavior
… to higher-order cognitive and behavioral traits. The far-reaching impact that genes have on higher traits is apparent in several neuropsychiatric conditions such as stress and anxiety disorders. Like most, if not all, neural phenotypes, stress, anxiety, and other emotion-related traits are …

The Genetic Architecture of Juvenile Migration in Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
… modulating this adaptive tactic. Using quantitative and molecular genetic techniques I describe the genetic basis of the marine migratory life history in three focused research chapters.</p> <p>In the first I conduct a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis, using an experimental cross, …

Uncovering the genetic basis of seed amino acid composition in arabidopsis using a multi-omics integrative approach
… I validate observations from GWAS using both a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis and reverse genetic approaches to identify a unique, seed-specific Glutamine-glucosinolate relationship that alters nitrogen and sulfur homeostasis in the seed in the Arabidopsis 360 population. Such finds …

Quantitative trait locus mapping of yield and yield components in canola (Brassica napus L.) under irrigated and rainfed treatments
… among yield and yield components by analyzing trait correlations and to study trait inheritance patterns; 3) to determine areas of the B. napus genome that are implicated in yield and yield component traits under both rainfed and irrigated conditions by quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis; …

Dissecting key biomass and adaptation traits of Miscanthus through genetic mapping, exploring mechanisms of cold tolerance, and flowering time in Miscanthus and Saccharum
… collected in 2012 and 2013 for fourteen yield traits. Six high-density parental genetic maps, as well as a consensus genetic map integrating M. sinensis and M. sacchariflorus, were developed via the pseudo-testcross strategy for non-inbred parents with ≥1,214 single nucleotide polymorphism …

Genetic Networks Modulating Retinal Injury
… with microarray technology, genetic linkage analysis of gene expression, and higher-level bioinformatic analyses. This work yielded three complementary insights. First, groups of functionally related genes underlie the early, delayed, and sustained responses of wound healing. For example, …
