Fine mapping QTLs using Recombinant-Inbred HS and In-Vitro HS William Valdar Jonathan Flint, Richard Mott Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics
Heterogeneous Stocks 8 inbred lines Pseudo-random mating for N generations typical chromosome pair eg, N=30: 3.4cM (=100/30) average distance between recombinants
Cost of mapping with HS • Need to genotype markers at very high density (sub centimorgan) • Expensive to genotype whole genome (eg 3000 markers for 30 generation HS) • How can we reduce genotyping cost ? • Use multiple phenotypes (value for money) Two genetic strategies: • RIHS Recombinant Inbred Heterogeneous Stock • IVHS In vitro Heterogeneous Stock
Recombinant Inbred HS (RIHS) X 20 generations HS HS RIHS
Recombinant Inbred HS (RIHS) • Genotype each RIHS line once • Keep stock, eg, as embryos • Distribute RIHS lines to labs for phenotyping X 20 generations HS HS RIHS
Recombinant Inbred HS (RIHS) • Genotype each RIHS line once • Keep stock, eg, as embryos • Distribute RIHS lines to labs for phenotyping X 20 generations HS HS RIHS Advantage over standard RI : resolution Advantage over standard HS: cost
RIHS for mapping modifier QTL X X 20 generations inbred HS HS RIHS F1 (may contain knockout or transgene) modifier search
How many RIHS do we need for effective fine-mapping? • Are there other HS strategies to reduce genotyping…?
In Vitro HS (IVHS) meiosis Fertilize inbred dam with HS sperm IVF recombinant F1 HS sperm HS donor
IVHS-1 meiosis IVF recombinant genotype donors at high resolution F1 HS sperm HS donor
IVHS-1 meiosis IVF recombinant pass 1 pass 2 genotype donors at high resolution F1 HS sperm HS donor F1 markers
IVHS-2 meiosis IVF no further genotyping recombinant genotype donors at high resolution F1 HS sperm HS donor treat as average of donor chromosomes

Evaluating the simulations • Evaluation • Perform 1000 simulations per condition • Analysis performed with HAPPY • Probability of detecting a QTL (must be a marker interval with adjusted HAPPY Pvalue < 1%) • Mapping accuracy
Detecting a significant locus • Pass rate = % times most significant marker interval has (corrected) P-value less than 0.01
consistent across population sizes 5% Detecting a significant locus • Pass rate = % times most significant marker interval has a corrected P-value less than 0.01
Mapping accuracy for significant loci • Mean mapping error = average distance between true QTL and the predicted locus mapping error (cM) predicted QTL true QTL

Varying marker density and marker type • IVHS-1 strategy with 5%QTL, 1200 pups • Vary number of markers over a 3cM region
Microsats = SNPs Microsats better ~0.05cM Varying marker density and marker type • IVHS-1 strategy with 5%QTL, 1200 pups • Vary number of markers over a 3cM region
Varying number of HS generations • IVHS-1 strategy with 5%QTL, 1200 pups
Varying number of HS generations • IVHS-1 strategy with 5%QTL, 1200 pups optimum [5,15]
Conclusions • RIHS and IVHS strategies: low genotyping cost without sacrificing mapping resolution • IVHS is short term mapping strategy • RIHS takes longer, costs more but is long term strategy of choice. • 100 RIHS lines is sufficient for mapping isolated additive QTLs but may not be enough for • multiple QTLs • identifying epistatic effects • Suitable HS: need only 15 generations Paper submitted to Mammalian Genome (preprints available)
