Genotypic data format for QTL mapping

QTL Mapping by Example
I. Raw data for QTL mapping
A F2 population with 184 individuals and 1536 SNP data: “QTL_example_raw_10112014.xlx”.

ata_10102014.xlsx
II. Tools for QTL analysis
We will use the example data to do QTL mapping using five tools: JoinMap, WinQTLCart, QGene,
QTLNetwork, and Mapchart. JoinMap is used to create the genetic maps for the population;
WinQTLCart, QGene, and QTLNetwork are used to conduct QTL analysis and identify SNP markers
associated with the traits; and Mapchart is used to create a nice looking images for the QTL maps.
The tools web sites are:

Please download the software and the user manuals! And then Install them to you computers.
III. Data Format and quality check
We use ABH- genetic data for running JoinMap, WinQTLCart, and QGene; use 1, 2, 3, and . (123.) format
for QTLNetwork.
We first check data quality using a Visual Basic (VB) codes, and transfer SNP nucleotide data (AA, CC, GG,
TT, AC, AG, AT, CG, CT, GT, and -) to ABH- format, which, Usually, ‘A’ is for female allele, ‘B’ for male, and
‘H’ for heterogonous like F1; however, if male has same allele as female, we also use ‘A’ for male.
Below attached the Excel file (QTL-example_ABH_ratio_10112014.xlsb) how to do data quality check: (1)
check F2 individuals whether it is true/false and selfing, (2) transfer SNP nucleotide format to ABH format,
meanwhile check each SNP whether it fits 1:2:1 ratio in F2 population; and (3) select good SNPs for genetic
mapping. The VB codes are with the excel file and also see blow attached.

IV. Create Genetic Maps for the F2 population
F2_above_progeny_true_false_selfing_tesying.txt
We use JoinMap to create genetic maps. Download user manual 4.0 and 4.1plus at
http://www.kyazma.nl/index.php/mc.JoinMap/sc.Manual/ or watch it from Youtube at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTtUrUo53ZI
Below attached the excel file (QTL_example_forJoinMap_10112014.xlsb) shows how to make .loc file to
run JoinMap, and also includes the output from JoinMap. The .loc file (PMR16_1.loc) for running JoinMap
and the VB code for formatting data for running JoinMap attached below.
We will add how to run JoinMap.

V. Format files for running QGene, WinQTLCart, and QTLNetwork
We use WinQTLCart, QGene, and QTLNetwork to conduct QTL analysis and identify SNP markers
associated with the traits.
Below attached the excel file (QTL_example_formatQgene_QTLCart_Network_10112014.xlsb) shows
how to make .mcd, .qdf, .txt + .map files to run tools, which are also attached below:
PMR16_for_WinQtlCart10122014.mcd for WINQTLCart; PMR16_forQGene1012201.qdf for Qgene; and
PMR16_forQtlNetwork10122014.txt + PMR16_for_QTLNetwork_Map.map for QTLNetwork.
