We have used multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method to study genegene interaction effect of statistical model in general. But, MDR method could not be applied in the continuous data. In this paper, continuous-type data by the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm are proposed to the MDR method which provides an introduction to the technique. Also we apply the method on the identify major interaction effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) responsible for economic traits in a Korean cattle population.

It is important to detect the gene-gene interaction in GWAS(Genome-Wide Association Study). There are many studies about detecting gene-gene interaction. The one is Multifactor dimensionality reduction method. But MDR method is not applied continuous data and expanded multifactor dimensionality reduction(E-MDR) method is suggested. The goal of this study is to evaluate the power of E-MDR for identifying gene-gene interaction by simulation. Also we applied the method on the identify interaction e ects of single nucleotid polymorphisms(SNPs) responsible for economic traits in a Korean cattle population (real data).

It is important to detect the gene-gene interaction in GWAS (genome-wide association study). There have been many studies on detecting gene-gene interaction. The one is D-MDR (dummy multifoactor dimensionality reduction) method. The goal of this study is to evaluate the power of D-MDR for identifying gene-gene interaction by simulation. Also we applied the method on the identify interaction effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) responsible for economic traits in a Korean cattle population (real data).

Metabolic syndrome has been known as a major factor of cardiovascular disease. Several metabolic disorders, particularly chronic disease is complex, and from individuals that appear in our country, the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome is increasing gradually. Therefore, this study, using a multi-factor dimensionality reduction method, checks the major single risk factor of metabolic syndrome and suggests a new diagnosis results of metabolic syndrome. Data of 3990 adults who responded to all the questionnaires of health interview are used from the database of the 5th Korea national health and nutrition examination survey conducted in 2010. As the result, the most dangerous single risk factor for metabolic syndrome was waist circumference and the most dangerous combination factors were waist circumference, triglyceride, and hypertension. This is the result of a new diagnosis of the metabolic syndrome. Especially, waist circumference, low HDL-cholesterol and hypertension were the most dangerous combination for male. In particular, the combination of waist circumference, triglyceride and diabetes was dangerous for obese people.

Multiple genes interacting is a difficult due to the limitations of parametric statistical method like as logistic regression for detection of gene effects that are dependent solely on interactions with other genes and with environmental exposures. Multifactor dimensionality reduction(MDR) statistical method by dummy variables was applied to identify interaction effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) responsible for longissimus mulcle dorsi area(LMA), carcass cold weight(CWT) and average daily gain(ADG) in a Hanwoo beef cattle population.

Kim and Lee (2015) identified a superior FABP4 gene that improves the grade and fatty acid of Korean cattle. This study selects a superior genotype by expanding genes that influence the economic traits of Korean cattle. Expanded genes are FABP4, SCD, FASN and SREBPs that are related to grade and fatty acid (Oh, 2014). We use the adjusted economic-trait values with environmental factors excluded. We also applied multifactor dimensionality reduction(MDR) method to data of the adjusted economic-trait values. As a result, we identified superior genes and genotypes which improved the grade and fatty acid of Korean cattle.

Study the gene about economical characteristic of human disease or domestic animal is a matter of grave interest, preserve and elevation of gene of Korea cattle is key subject. Studies have been done on the gene of Korea cattle using EST based SNP map, but it is based on statistical model, therefore there are difference between real position and statistical position. These problems are solved using both EST_based SNP map and Gene on sequence by Lee et al. (2009b). We have used multifactor dimensionality reduction(MDR) method to study interaction effect of statistical model in general. But MDR method cannot be applied in all cases. It can be applied to the only case-control data. So, method is suggested E-MDR method using CART algorithm. Also we identified interaction effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) responsible for average daily gain(ADG) and marbling score(MS) using E-MDR method.

Human diseases and livestock economic traits are not typically the result of variation of a single genetic locus, but are rather the result of interplay between interactions among multiple genes and a variety of environmental exposures. We have used linear regression model for adjusted environmental effects and multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method to identify gene-gene interaction effect of statistical model in general. Of course, we use 5 SNPs (single uncleotide polymorphism) which were studied recently by Oh et al. (2011). We apply the MDR (multifactor demensionality reduction) method on the identify major interaction effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms responsible for economic traits in a Korean cattle population.

The lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene can be considered a functional candidate gene that regulates fatty acid composition. Oh etc (2013) investigated the relationship between unsaturated fatty acids and five novel SNPs, and had confirmed that three polymorphic SNPs (c.322G>A, c.329A>T and c.1591G>A) were associated with fatty acid composition. We have used generalized linear model for adjusted environmental effects and multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method to identify gene-gene interaction effect of statistical model in general. We applied the MDR method on the identify major interaction effects of exonic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the LPL gene for economic traits in Korean cattles population.

Disease of human and economic traits of livestocks are affected a lot by gene combination effect rather than a single gene effect. In this study, we used SNPHarvester method that supplement existing method in order to investigate the interaction of these genes. The used genes are SREBPs (g.3270+10274 C>T, g.13544 T>C) and FABP4 (g.2634+1018 A>T, g.2988 A>G, g.3690 G>A, g.3710 G>C, g.3977-325 T>C, g.4221 A>G) that are closely related to the fatty acid composition affecting the meatiness of Korean cattle. The economic traits which are used are oleic acid (C18:1), monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA), marbling score (MS). First, we have utilized the SNPHarvester method in order to find excellent gene combination, and then used the multifactor dimensionality reduction method in order to identify excellent genotype in gene combination.
