A new mapping method for quantitative trait loci of silkworm

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2011
Background Silkworm is the basis of sericultural industry and the model organism in insect genetics study. Mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) underlying economically important traits of silkworm is of high significance for promoting the silkworm ...

A Multivariate Moran Process with Lotka-Volterra Phenomenology

open access: yes, 2011
For a population with any given number of types, we construct a new multivariate Moran process with frequency-dependent selection and establish, analytically, a correspondence to equilibrium Lotka-Volterra phenomenology.

Studies on Resistance to Vegetative (Vip3A) and Crystal (Cry1A) Insecticidal Toxins of Bacillus thuringiensis in Heliothis virescens (Fabricius) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins expressed in commercial transgenic crop varieties are all δ-endotoxins (Cry toxins) but the identification of novel vegetative insecticidal proteins (Vip toxins) has extended the range of insecticidal proteins derived

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

University students' conceptions about the concept of gene: Interest of historical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
International audienceConcepts of genetics are often difficult to teach, specifically the central concept of gene. Even the scientists disagree when defining this concept.

The clinical and genetic heterogeneity of autosomal dominant cataract [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica Scandinavica, 1996
ABSTRACT As part of a linkage study we have reviewed over 150 patients with autosomal dominant cataract and suggest a clinical classification of the different phenotypes consisting of anterior and posterior polar, nuclear, cortical, blue‐dot, lamellar, coralliform and pulverulent cataracts.

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

Breed of origin analysis in genome-wide association studies: enhancing SNP-based insights into production traits in a commercial Brangus population

open access: yesBMC Genomics
Background Carcass weight (HCW) and marbling (MARB) are critical for meat quality and market value in beef cattle. In composite breeds like Brangus, which meld the genetics of Angus and Brahman, SNP-based analyses have illuminated some genetic influences

Host-specific functional significance of Caenorhabditis gut commensals

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The gut microbiota is an important contributor to host health and fitness. Given its importance, microbiota composition should not be left to chance. However, what determines this composition is far from clear, with results supporting contributions of ...
