Summary Introduction

To explain: The advantages of studying the causes of diseases that are caused by common, as opposed to rare, alleles.

Introduction: QTL stands for quantitative trait loci. QTL mapping allows researchers to find out alleles that were common in increasing the risk of genetic diseases. In QTL mapping, a genetic map is made. This genetic map shows the location of genetically variable markers on chromosomes of the species.
