Genetic interactions improve models of quantitative traits

Nature Genetics 49, 486 (2017). doi:10.1038/ng.3829 Authors: Anna L Tyler & Gregory W Carter A study of genetic variation in yeast has identified key quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that suppress the effects of variation at multiple other loci. These loci prove essential to accurately modeling yeast growth in response to different environments.
