Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is performed using the F2 generation to ensure individuals exhibit a 3:1 genotype ratio and have recombinant genotypes. This approach allows for the quantification of inbreeding effects. Additionally, it ensures that the individuals are representative of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

- 1. Why is Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) mapping done with the F 2 generation? so that individuals used in the mapping will have genotypes in a 3 : 1 ratio so that individuals used in the mapping will have recombinant genotypes so that all individuals used in the mapping will be in HardyWeinberg Equilibrium so that all individuals used in the mapping will be homozygotes so that all individuals used in the mapping will be heterozygotes so that the effect of inbreeding can be quantified
