Postdoc (genetic mapping and discovery of structural variants) - Institut National de Recherche Agronomique
Deadline: Friday, July 14, 2017 at 6:00PM
Exploit high-throughput genotyping data (GBS or arrays) of segregating populations to detect structural variants, particularly in plant genomes. The key is to focus on data that is generally discarded as not compatible with Mendelian hypotheses. After that, identify QTLs for traits of interest that are associated with such structural variants. The work will focus on the conception, realization and validation of computational and statistical methods. All code will be written in R, building on scripts previously produced by the host team.
