A recent paper published in Nature represents a first in the attempt to map and sequence a true quantitative trait loci (QTL) – a gene with a small effect and complex expression. This study highlights both the promise and hazards of the road ahead as we seek to diagnose all the genes contributing to complex phenotypes....
