Examples of existing systems genetics reference populations and cell lines (where applicable) for in vitro applications.

Organism Genetics Panel Derivation System Sources
Human Heterogeneous HipSci iPSC lines derived from ~150 rare disease and ~500 healthy donors hiPSCs [19-21]
Heterogeneous iPSCORE hiPSC lines derived from ~220 donors including matched familial and twin lines hiPSCs [10]
Heterogeneous Lymphoblastoid cell lines Derived from peripheral blood of donor populations [e.g. 1,000 Genomes, HapMap Projects, NHGRI Human Genetics Cell Repository] LCLs [103], Coriell Cell Repository
Mouse Inbred strains Hybrid mouse diversity panel (HMDP), Mouse Phenome Panel Collections of diverse and well characterized inbred strains MEFs, limited iPSCs, limited mESCs [12, 58, 104, 105], The Jackson Laboratory
RI & RI advanced intercross BXD Strains developed by crossing C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice Ex vivo only to date [106, 107]
RI Collaborative Cross (CC) Highly diverse strains derived from an eight-way cross of A/J, C57BL/6J, 129S1/SvImJ, NOD/ShiLtJ, NZO/HlLtJ, CAST/EiJ, PWK/PhJ, and WSB/EiJ mice Ex vivo, limited mESCs, MEFs [13, 108, 109]
Outbred Diversity Outbred (DO) Panel developed by random outcross matings of 160 CC mice and maintained by random matings that avoid sibling crosses Ex vivo, mESCs [110], Predictive Biology
Saccharom yces cerevisiae RI SGRP-4X Panel developed from a four-way cross and then intercrossing for 12 generations Whole organism [34]
Outbred 18F12 Two populations developed from 18 genetically diverse founder strains Whole organism [33]
