Breeding value estimation with incomplete marker data [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 1998
Incomplete marker data prevent application of marker-assisted breeding value estimation using animal model BLUP. We describe a Gibbs sampling approach for Bayesian estimation of breeding values, allowing incomplete information on a single marker that is linked to a quantitative trait locus.

Identification and validation of reference genes for qPCR of Pseudomonas aeruginosa L10 under varying n-hexadecane concentrations

open access: yesBMC Microbiology
Pseudomonas aeruginosa can efficiently degrades petroleum hydrocarbons, but its degradation rate is affected by hydrocarbon pollutant concentrations, which must be neither too high nor too low. To quantitatively analyze P.

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

Language, Culture, and Cancer: Qualitative Insights Into Communication Disparities Among Spanish‐Speaking Caregivers of Children With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Latino children are projected to make up nearly one‐third of United States (US) children by 2060, and many of their caregivers speak Spanish. Prior survey research has documented communication difficulties for Spanish‐speaking caregivers of children with cancer, but contemporary qualitative data are limited.
