Using whole-genome sequence data to predict quantitative trait phenotypes in Drosophila melanogaster.

Using whole-genome sequence data to predict quantitative trait phenotypes in Drosophila melanogaster.

Predicting organismal phenotypes from genotype data is important for plant and animal breeding, medicine, and evolutionary biology. Genomic-based phenotype prediction has been applied for single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping platforms, but not using complete genome sequences. Here, we rep...
