Modeling Continuous Admixture Using Admixture-Induced Linkage Disequilibrium [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Abstract Recent migrations and inter-ethnic mating of long isolated populations have resulted in genetically admixed populations. To understand the complex population admixture process, which is critical to both evolutionary and medical studies, here we used admixture induced linkage disequilibrium (LD) to infer continuous admixture ...

General theory for stochastic admixture graphs and F-statistics [PDF]
, 2018 We provide a general mathematical framework based on the theory of graphical models to study admixture graphs. Admixture graphs are used to describe the ancestral relationships between past and present populations, allowing for population merges and ...

The influence of hyperplasticizer on concrete
Zaštita Materijala, 2014 The paper presents the possibility of modeling of concrete properties in fresh and/or hardened state by applying hyperplasticizers type admixtures, based on a modified polycarboxyl ether polymer.

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 Crossbreeding is a process in which animals from different breeds are mated together. The animals produced will exhibit a combination of both additive and non-additive genetic improvement from parental breeds that increase heterozygosity and negate ...

Fast individual ancestry inference from DNA sequence data leveraging allele frequencies for multiple populations. [PDF]
, 2015 BackgroundEstimation of individual ancestry from genetic data is useful for the analysis of disease association studies, understanding human population history and interpreting personal genomic variation. New, computationally efficient methods are needed

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Pig herds in Africa comprise genotypes ranging from local ecotypes to commercial breeds. Many animals are composites of these two types and the best levels of crossbreeding for particular production systems are largely unknown.

Phenomenological Comparison of Models with Extended Higgs Sectors [PDF]
, 2017 Beyond the Standard Model (SM) extensions usually include extended Higgs sectors. Models with singlet or doublet fields are the simplest ones that are compatible with the $\rho$ parameter constraint.

The footprint of recent and strong demographic decline in the genomes of Mangalitza pigs
Animal, 2019 The Mangalitza pig breed has suffered strong population reductions due to competition with more productive cosmopolitan breeds. In the current work, we aimed to investigate the effects of this sustained demographic recession on the genomic diversity of ...
