Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) QTLs are loci which individually have a small but measurable influence on a continuous phenotype such as body weight rather than giving rise to discrete disease present or absent phenotypes. The principal advantage of this methodology is that interactions between loci each having only a small phenotypic effect may be investigated particularly where the sum of more than one such effect is large. The principle of attempting to define QTLs as a tool for gene mapping relies on the fact that rodents may be selectively inbred to produce strains that differ widely in body weight and fat deposition under the influence of polygenic loci.
