MODIFICATIONS IN ESTIMATING THE NUMBER OF GENES FOR A QUANTITATIVE CHARACTER
C. Clark Cockerham 1
1 Department of Statistics, North Carolina State University,
Box 8203, Raleigh, North Carolina 27695-8203
In estimating the minimum number of genes contributing to a quantitative character, it is suggested that the squared difference between the means of the two parents be corrected for experimental variance and that the genetic variance stemming from differences in gene frequencies of the parents be estimated by least squares utilizing information on all entries.
