A Simplified Strategy for Introducing Genetic Variants into Drosophila Compound Autosome Stocks
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 Drosophila stocks bearing compound chromosomes, single molecules of DNA that carry the genomic complement of two chromosomes, are useful tools for studying meiosis and mitosis.

Genetic evolution of a multi-generational population in the context of interstellar space travels -- Part I: Genetic evolution under the neutral selection hypothesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We updated the agent based Monte Carlo code HERITAGE that simulates human evolution within restrictive environments such as interstellar, sub-light speed spacecraft in order to include the effects of population genetics. We incorporated a simplified -- yet representative -- model of the whole human genome with 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), containing 2110

Global solar irradiation prediction using a multi-gene genetic programming approach [PDF]
Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, vol. 5, no. 6, pp.
063129, 2013, 2014 In this paper, a nonlinear symbolic regression technique using an evolutionary algorithm known as multi-gene genetic programming (MGGP) is applied for a data-driven modelling between the dependent and the independent variables. The technique is applied for modelling the measured global solar irradiation and validated through numerical simulations.

Optimization of a crossing system using mate selection
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2006 A simple model based on one single identified quantitative trait locus (QTL) in a two-way crossing system was used to demonstrate the power of mate selection algorithms as a natural means of opportunistic line development for optimization of ...

Genetic draft, selective interference, and population genetics of rapid adaptation [PDF]
Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics Vol. 44:
195-215, 2013, 2013 To learn about the past from a sample of genomic sequences, one needs to understand how evolutionary processes shape genetic diversity. Most population genetic inference is based on frameworks assuming adaptive evolution is rare. But if positive selection operates on many loci simultaneously, as has recently been suggested for many species including ...

Bridging the prosody GAP: Genetic Algorithm with People to efficiently sample emotional prosody [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The human voice effectively communicates a range of emotions with nuanced variations in acoustics. Existing emotional speech corpora are limited in that they are either (a) highly curated to induce specific emotions with predefined categories that may not capture the full extent of emotional experiences, or (b) entangled in their semantic and prosodic ...

UNEQUAL CROSSING OVER AT THE rRNA TANDON AS A SOURCE OF QUANTITATIVE GENETIC VARIATION IN DROSOPHILA [PDF]
Genetics, 1980 ABSTRACT Abdominal bristle selection lines (three high and three low) and controls were founded from a marked homozygous line to measure the contribution of sex-linked "mutations" to selection response. Two of the low lines exhibited a period of rapid response to selection in females, but not in males. There were corresponding changes in

The timing of genetic degeneration of sex chromosomes
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2020 Genetic degeneration is an extraordinary feature of sex chromosomes, with the loss of functions of Y-linked genes in species with XY systems, and W-linked genes in ZW systems, eventually affecting almost all genes.

Accurate recombination estimation from pooled genotyping and sequencing: a case study on barley
BMC Genomics, 2022 Sexual reproduction involves meiotic recombination and the creation of crossing over between homologous chromosomes, which leads to new allele combinations. We present a new approach that uses the allele frequency differences and the physical distance of
