Genetic Crosses and Linkage Mapping in Schistosome Parasites [PDF]
Linkage mapping - utilizing experimental genetic crosses to examine cosegregation of phenotypic traits with genetic markers - is now 100 years old. Schistosome parasites are exquisitely well suited to linkage mapping approaches because genetic crosses can be conducted in the laboratory, thousands of progeny are produced, and elegant experimental work ...

In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Evaluation of early generation progenies, (F2) of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) crosses for seed yield and yield related characters [PDF]
F2 generation of five crosses of fenugreek were evaluated for seed yield and its components along with parents. F2 generation had wider range than the parents for most of the characters in the crosses.

Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Optimized breeding strategies to harness genetic resources with different performance levels
Background The narrow genetic base of elite germplasm compromises long-term genetic gain and increases the vulnerability to biotic and abiotic stresses in unpredictable environmental conditions. Therefore, an efficient strategy is required to broaden the

On genetic correlation estimation with summary statistics from genome-wide association studies [PDF]
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been widely used to examine the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and complex traits, where both the sample size n and the number of SNPs p can be very large. Recently, cross-trait polygenic risk score (PRS) method has gained extremely popular for assessing genetic correlation of ...

Frequency of superior yielding segregates from soybean crosses ranked on the basis of best linear unbiased predictions of parents [PDF]
Plant breeding can be improved by methods that give reliable predictions of crosses which produce the highest frequencies of segregates which are higher yielding than existing genotypes.

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and

Demonstration of a genetic-algorithm-optimized cavity-based waveguide crossing [PDF]
A compact, single-etch silicon photonics waveguide crossing based on low quality factor cavity and optimized by a genetic algorithm is demonstrated. The device has 0.1~0.3 dB insertion loss and < -35 dB crosstalk per crossing for fundamental TE mode in the 1550-1600 nm wavelength band, with a footprint of 5 x 5 {\mu}m$^2$.

Genetic Dissection of Cytonuclear Epistasis in Line Crosses [PDF]
Abstract Dissection of cytonuclear interactions is fundamentally important for understanding the genetic architecture of complex traits. Here we propose a mating design based on reciprocal crosses and extend the existing QTL mapping method to evaluate the contribution of cytoplasm and QTL × cytoplasm interactions to the phenotypic ...
