DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16097
Abstract: Wild plant species provide excellent examples of qualitative traits that evolve in response to environmental challenges (e.g., flower color, heavy metal tolerance, cyanogenesis, and male sterility). In addition to such discrete characters, a dazzling array… read more here.

The flashfm approach for fine-mapping multiple quantitative traits.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Nature communications"
DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-26364-y
Abstract: Joint fine-mapping that leverages information between quantitative traits could improve accuracy and resolution over single-trait fine-mapping. Using summary statistics, flashfm (flexible and shared information fine-mapping) fine-maps signals for multiple traits, allowing for missing trait measurements… read more here.
