The paper examines how covariance patterns of phenotypes change during postnatal ontogeny in mammals and finds that these patterns stabilize after weaning, likely influenced by genetic processes.

MusMorph provides standardized mouse morphology data for meta-analyses, including craniofacial and brain structures across developmental stages and genotypes.

The paper develops a process-centered multivariate genotype-phenotype approach to analyze craniofacial shape variation in mice, linking gene sets to shape axes and predicting phenotypic effects beyond shape.

This study identifies 37 QTL for facial shape in DO mice, finding enrichment for genes involved in skeletal and facial development, despite small individual effects.

The paper identifies epistatic gene interactions underlying parent-of-origin effects on metabolic traits in mice using reciprocal crosses and tissue-specific expression analysis.

This study investigates how the fitness cost of congenital heart defects influences their genetic architecture using a mouse model, finding that epistasis and genetic compatibility play significant roles in risk.
