Monogenic characters mark chromosome sections and therefore allow estimation of the substitution effects of genes located in them for a quantitative character. From assumptions for higher organisms, the expected effects of a quantitative trait are deduced. The derivations aim to produce comparison v

โฆ Synopsis
The method described uses monogenic inherited characters as markers by which the transmission of homologous chromosome sections from parents to progeny can be controlled. The procedure then attributes effects on continuously varying characters to marked chromosome sections. It allows the mapping of effects having a share in quantitative characters in natural or breeding populations.

## Abstract In genomewide genetic association studies, prior biological knowledge may help distinguish variation that is truly associated with a quantitative trait from the vast majority of unassociated variation that may be significant in hypothesis testing due to chance. However, formal methods f
