Whole exome sequencing of schizophrenia patients with high level of autozygosity. [PDF]
, 2014 Despite an estimated heritability up to 80% the genetic architecture of schizophrenia (SZ) remains unclear. Only about 32% of the genetic variability of schizophrenia has been attributed to common susceptibility alleles, this implying that other genetic

Extensive genome-wide autozygosity in the population isolates of Daghestan [PDF]
European Journal of Human Genetics, 2015 Isolated populations are valuable resources for mapping disease genes, as inbreeding increases genome-wide homozygosity and enhances the ability to map disease alleles on a genetically uniform background within a relatively homogenous environment.

GENOMIC VARIABILITY AMONG CATTLE POPULATIONS BASED ON RUNS OF HOMOZYGOSITY [PDF]
Poljoprivreda, 2015 In this work, the distribution of different lengths ROH (runs of homozygosity) in six cattle breeds was described. A total of 122 animals from six cattle breeds (Holstein, Simmental, Austrian Pinzgau, Ayrshire, MRI-Meuse Rhine Issel and Slovak Pinzgau ...

Autozygosity-driven genetic diagnosis in consanguineous families from Italy and the Greater Middle East [PDF]
, 2020 Autozygosity-driven exome analysis has been shown effective for identification of genes underlying recessive diseases especially in countries of the so-called Greater Middle East (GME), where high consanguinity unravels the phenotypic effects of ...

The evaluation of genomic diversity and selection signals in the autochthonous Slovak Spotted cattle
Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2021 The aim of this study was to evaluate the effective population size based on linkage disequilibrium and the trend of inbreeding derived from runs of homozygosity (ROH) in the Slovak Spotted cattle.

Fine-scale analysis of six beef cattle breeds revealed patterns of their genomic diversity
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2020 There has been a significant decrease in genetic diversity on a global scale for several livestock species, including beef cattle. Therefore, the aim of this study was to deliver fine-scale analysis of the genomic structure and to describe the diversity ...

Pedigree and marker information requirements to monitor genetic variability
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2003 There are several measures available to describe the genetic variability of populations. The average inbreeding coefficient of a population based on pedigree information is a frequently chosen option.
