A systems-genetics approach and data mining tool to assist in the discovery of genes underlying complex traits in Oryza sativa.

Many traits of biological and agronomic significance in plants are controlled in a complex manner where multiple genes and environmental signals affect the expression of the phenotype. In Oryza sativa (rice), thousands of quantitative genetic signals have been mapped to the rice genome. In parallel,...
