EpiTrack<\/strong> is an online tool that uncovers the type of epistatic interaction between two genes. It does this automatically<\/strong>, just by pasting phenotypic data from an F2 population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start, paste the phenotypic data that you observe in an F2 population, <\/strong>created by selfing an F1 hybrid. Then, Epitrack compares the observed ratio to the expected one by applying a chi-square test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data should be categorical<\/strong>, like the color of the fruit or scores of disease resistace in a scale (high, moderate, low etc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tool returns three outputs<\/strong>: the statistics, the explanation of the best fit model and a bar graph with the counts of each phenotypic category.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
