Using Whole-Genome Sequence Data to Predict Quantitative Trait Phenotypes in Drosophila melanogaster

Predicting organismal phenotypes from genotype data is important for plant and animal breeding, medicine, and evolutionary biology. Genomic-based phenotype prediction has been applied for single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping platforms, but not using complete genome sequences. Here, we rep...
