A new approach to detect non-pleiotropic QTL for correlated traits

In quantitative traits loci (QTL) mapping experiments a number of traits are often recorded. Although most QTL-detection methods are based on single trait analysis, several approaches for multi-trait detection have been proposed (Weller et al., 1996; Knott and Haley, 2000).
