Are minor alleles more likely to be risk alleles? [PDF]
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have revealed relationships between over 57,000 genetic variants and diseases. However, unlike Mendelian diseases, complex diseases arise from the interplay of multiple genetic and environmental factors.

Inference of population structure using multilocus genotype data: dominant markers and null alleles
Dominant markers such as amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) provide an economical way of surveying variation at many loci. However, the uncertainty about the underlying genotypes presents a problem for statistical analysis.

Allelic diversity of S-RNase alleles in diploid potato species [PDF]
The S-ribonuclease sequences of 16 S-alleles derived from diploid types of Solanum are presented. A phylogenetic analysis and partial phenotypic analysis support the conclusion that these are functional S-alleles. S-Ribonucleases (S-RNases) control the pistil specificity of the self-incompatibility (SI) response in the genus Solanum and several other ...

HLA diversity in the Russian population assessed by next generation sequencing
Next generation sequencing is used to determine full-length sequences of HLA genes at the 4-field (allelic) resolution. The study was aimed at determining frequency and diversity of HLA alleles in a cohort of blood donors from the Registry of the ...
