We have recently used RI strains to map QTLs that generate variation in the architecture of the mouse centralnervous system (CNS) [ 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14].
Genetic correlations between intervals on different chromosomes can be high in RI sets and this can result in spurious results and false-positive QTLs.
While other studies have mined EST databases to detect SNPs [ 19], the work presented here is the first demonstration of the use of strain-specific genome sequence databases to discover gene-coding variants for murine QTLs.
The QTL intervals that were used in the present study were rather large, and many other QTLs that use strains amenable to an in silico approach are considerably smaller.
When we carried out a PubMed literature database search, 276 QTLs, corresponding to 57 different phenotypes, were identified that utilized two of these five mouse strains (Table 3).
