Inbred founders Mosaic Crosses G3 GN F20 inbreeding mixing chopping up Heterogeneous Stock, Advanced Intercross, Random Outbreds F2, diallele Recombinant Inbred Lines
Analysis of Mosaic Crosses Observed chromosome structure (genotypes) Hidden Markov Model Hidden Chromosome Structure (ancestral mosaic) Mott et al, 2000 PNAS
Heterogeneous stocks C3H/HeJ LP/J CBA/J A/J C57BL/6J AKR/J BALB/cJ DBA/2J Pseudo-random mating for 50 generations
Collaborative Cross Mice 8-way funnel C57BL6/J A/J WSB/EiJ NOD/LtJ 129S1/SvImJ NZO/HlLtJ CAST/EiJ PWK/PhJ Brother-sister mating for >20 generations ~ 1000 Recombinant Inbred Lines
Genetic diversity of mouse populations Roberts et al Mamm Genome (2007) 18:473-481 The diversity captured in the model resources is shown in their respective color as (BXD RI, blue; B.P CSS, gray; Northport HS, green; LSDP, orange; CC, red).
Study design • 2,000 heterogeneous stock mice • 15,000 diallelic markers • More than 100 phenotypes • each mouse subject to a battery of tests spread over weeks 5-9 of the animal’s life
101 Phenotypes • Anxiety (conditioned and unconditioned tasks) [24] • Asthma (plethysmography) [13] • Biochemistry [15] • Diabetes [16] • Haematology [15] • Immunology [9] • Weight/size related [8] • Wound Healing [1] • Bacterial Gut Flora • Mandible Shape • Gene Expression • Hippocampus, Liver, Lung
How to select peaks: a simulated example Simulate 7 x 5% QTLs (ie, 35% genetic effect) + 20% shared environment effect + 45% noise = 100% variance
Peaks from 1D scan phenotype ~ covariates + ?
1D scan: condition on 1 peak phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + ?
1D scan: condition on 2 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + ?
1D scan: condition on 3 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + peak 3 + ?
1D scan: condition on 4 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + peak 3 + peak 4 + ?
1D scan: condition on 5 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + peak 3 + peak 4 + peak 5 + ?
1D scan: condition on 6 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + peak 3 + peak 4 + peak 5 + peak 6 + ?
1D scan: condition on 7 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + peak 3 + peak 4 + peak 5 + peak 6 + peak 7 + ?
1D scan: condition on 8 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + peak 3 + peak 4 + peak 5 + peak 6 + peak 7 + peak 8 + ?
1D scan: condition on 9 peaks phenotype ~ covariates + peak 1 + peak 2 + peak 3 + peak 4 + peak 5 + peak 6 + peak 7 + peak 8 + peak 9 + ?

In 1000 bootstraps… Bootstrap Posterior Probability (BPP)
Model averaging by bootstrap aggregation • Choosing only one model: • very data-dependent, arbitrary • can’t get all the true QTLs in one model • Bootstrap aggregation averages over models • true QTLs get included more often than false ones • References: • Broman & Speed (2002) • Hackett et al (2001)

Bacterial Gut Flora • Different inbred strains have different gut flora (David Threadgill) • Flora can be assayed from feacal boli (quantitative PCR) • Bacteroides distasonis • Clostridium • Eubacterium plexicaudatum • Firmcutes • Flexistipes • Lactobacillus acidophilus • Lactobacillus salivarius • Data available for 600 HS mice at present
