Detecting selection with a genetic cross [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 Significance Natural selection is the force that underlies the spectacular adaptations of all organisms to their environments. However, not all traits are under selection; a key question is which traits have been shaped by selection, as opposed to the random drift of neutral traits.

Cross-border genetic testing [PDF]
Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2010 As genetic testing (GT) is now available for many rare disorders, no GT laboratory can be expert enough to provide every test. Samples are therefore sent between laboratories for testing, often across borders. Such cross-border testing raises some questions: The 2003 OECD survey of 827 molecular GT laboratories in 18 countries found that 64% of ...

Plasmodium falciparum genetic crosses in a humanized mouse model
Nature Methods, 2015 Genetic crosses of phenotypically distinct strains of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum are a powerful tool for identifying genes controlling drug resistance and other key phenotypes. Previous studies relied on the isolation of recombinant

IRREGULAR GENETIC TRANSMISSION IN TETRAHYMENA CROSSES [PDF]
Genetics, 1963 LLEN (1960) reported briefly an aberration in the breeding behavior of a Astrain (C*) of variety 1 of Tetrahymena pyriformis. Her later studies (ALLEN 1963) established the genetic parameters of the aberration and lead to the conclusion that the total genome of the C* strain is systematically excluded at conjugation.

Construction and extension of complicated genetic models for multiple-cross mating designs
浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2004 According to the principles of general genetic model, and based on multiple-cross mating designs, additive-dominance-epistatic models with GE interaction and seed models including four genetic systems of diploid embryo, triploid endosperm, cytoplasm and ...

Combining ability and heritability estimates of main agronomic characters in rapeseed breeding lines using line × tester analysis [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2012 To estimate the general and specific combining ability (GCA and SCA) effects of plant height, yield components, seed yield and oil content, three testers and six lines of spring type of rapeseed varieties were crossed using line × tester fashion ...

Development of a 10,000 Locus Genetic Map of the Sunflower Genome Based on Multiple Crosses
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2012 Genetic linkage maps have the potential to facilitate the genetic dissection of complex traits and comparative analyses of genome structure, as well as molecular breeding efforts in species of agronomic importance.

eQTL epistasis – challenges and computational approaches
Frontiers in Genetics, 2013 The determination of eQTL epistasis - a form of functional interaction between genetic loci that affect gene expression - is an important step towards the thorough understanding of gene regulation.
