Statistical Inference for Genetic Relatedness Based on High-Dimensional Logistic Regression [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 This paper studies the problem of statistical inference for genetic relatedness between binary traits based on individual-level genome-wide association data. Specifically, under the high-dimensional logistic regression models, we define parameters characterizing the cross-trait genetic correlation, the genetic covariance and the trait-specific genetic ...

Line × tester analysis in rapeseed: Identification of superior parents and combinations for seed yield and its components [PDF]
, 2015 This research was carried out to investigate the genetic structure of the 20 F1s rapeseed hybrids established from five female moderate maturity lines and four early maturity male testers, to determine parents showing general combining ability (GCA) and ...

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2022 Premise Living collections maintained for generations are at risk of diversity loss, inbreeding, and adaptation to cultivation. To address these concerns, the zoo community uses pedigrees to track individuals and implement crosses that maximize founder ...

Agronomic evaluation of four maize synthetics after recurrent selection for yield and evaluation of selected lines from the synthetics [PDF]
, 1982 Reciprocal recurrent selection in the maize (Zea mays L.) populations, BSSS(R) and BSCB1(R), was compared with recurrent selection for general combining ability in BS13(S(,2)), and half-sib selection in the intervarietal cross, BS6(RS).

Molecular parentage analysis is essential in breeding Asian seabass.
PLoS ONE, 2012 In aquaculture species, maintaining pedigree information and genetic variation in each generation is essential, but very difficult. In this study, we used nine microsatellites to genotype 2,520 offspring from four independent full-factorial crosses (10 ...

Deep Visual-Genetic Biometrics for Taxonomic Classification of Rare Species [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Visual as well as genetic biometrics are routinely employed to identify species and individuals in biological applications. However, no attempts have been made in this domain to computationally enhance visual classification of rare classes with little image data via genetics.
