Unbiased estimation of odds ratios: combining genomewide association scans with replication studies. [PDF]

, 2009
Odds ratios or other effect sizes estimated from genome scans are upwardly biased, because only the top-ranking associations are reported, and moreover only if they reach a defined level of significance. No unbiased estimate exists based on data selected

Placing very long branch taxa in the plant tree of life: A case study with Dioscoreales mycoheterotrophs

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The inclusion of heterotrophic plants in broader systematic studies is challenging due to substantial morphological modification, gene loss, and accelerated substitution rates following photosynthesis loss. In particular, inclusion of very long branch (VLB) taxa with highly elevated rates may lead to phylogenomic misinference.

Short communication: Genomic prediction based on unbiased estimation of the genomic relationship matrix in pigs

Animal
The traditional genomic relationship matrix (GRM) has shown to be a biased estimation of true kinship, which can affect subsequent genetic analyses. In this study, we employed an unbiased kinship (UKin) estimation method within the genomic best linear ...

Trace Elements Genetics: A Potential Role in Treatment‐Resistant Major Psychoses and Related Traits?

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are pivotal to key biological processes, with possible effects on psychopathology. We investigated the hypothesis of shared genetic factors between trace elements levels, treatment resistance and related traits. We used genome‐wide summary statistics for trace elements blood concentration, treatment‐resistant depression (TRD ...

Impact of Selection Signature on Genomic Prediction and Heritability Estimation in Livestock

Animals
Natural or artificial selection could shape genetic architecture, e.g., the relationship between minor allele frequency (MAF) and the effect sizes of causal variants (CVs).

The International Consortium for Arthrogryposis: A Collaborative Framework for Early Detection, Care, Research, and Education

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a group of rare congenital conditions, characterized by multiple joint contractures but may involve any body system including central nervous system. AMC is etiologically heterogeneous, with over 400 genetic and many non‐genetic causes implicated in its prenatal development.

ESTIMATION OF HERITABILITY AND PREDICTED GENOTYPE MEAN FOR SEED YIELD OF CASTOR (RICINUS COMMUNIS L.) USING BEST LINEAR UNBIASED PREDICTION (BLUP) [PDF]

Journal of Plant Development, 2017
Eighty six castor genotypes were evaluated to estimate heritability and predicted genotype mean for seed yield and its component traits. The genotypes were planted at three locations using incomplete block experimental design with three replications. The

Translation and Cross‐Cultural Adaptation of the Chronic Rhinosinusitis Control Test for Global Use

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The Chronic Rhinosinusitis Control Test (CRCT) is a patient‐reported outcome measure (PROM) written in English that is psychometrically validated to measure chronic rhinosinusitis control. Because the availability of translated PROMs is a driver of data equity—collection of data that is fair and generally representative—our ...
