A sibling method for identifying vQTLs.

The propensity of a trait to vary within a population may have evolutionary, ecological, or clinical significance.In the present study we deploy sibling models to offer a novel and unbiased way to ascertain loci associated with the extent to which phenotypes vary (variance-controlling quantitative trait loci, or vQTLs).Previous methods for vQTL-map
