The control of genetic parameters on grain yield and its components in hexaploid wheat
Tikrit Journal of Pure Science, 2023 Controlling of genetical parameters on grain yield and its components were study in six generation (P1,P2,F1,F2,B1 and B2) for two crosses of hexaploid wheat, Triticum aestivum L.

Genetic Analysis of Anger: Genetic Dominance or Competitive Sibling Interaction [PDF]
Behavior Genetics, 2006 The knowledge of the causes and development of anger is still scarce. Previous studies on the sources of variance on Type A Behavior Pattern (TABP) related measures found variable heritability estimates ranging from 0.12 to 0.68, and large differences between MZ and DZ correlations. Some authors considered dominance genetic effects, competitive sibling

Bose-Einstein Condensation in Competitive Processes [PDF]
, 2003 We introduce an irreversible discrete multiplicative process that undergoes Bose-Einstein condensation as a generic model of competition. New players with different abilities successively join the game and compete for limited resources. A player's future

The Effects of Population Size Histories on Estimates of Selection Coefficients from Time-Series Genetic Data. [PDF]
, 2016 Many approaches have been developed for inferring selection coefficients from time series data while accounting for genetic drift. These approaches have been motivated by the intuition that properly accounting for the population size history can ...

Theoretical aspects of heterosis
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2016 The phenomenon of heterosis, known as superior performance of hybrid organism compared with either of their parents, has been exploited by agricultural practices in the production of various crops since the beginning of the last century; however, its ...

The dominance model for heterosis explains culm length genetics in a hybrid sorghum variety
Scientific Reports, 2021 Heterosis helps increase the biomass of many crops; however, while models for its mechanisms have been proposed, it is not yet fully understood. Here, we use a QTL analysis of the progeny of a high-biomass sorghum F1 hybrid to examine heterosis.

Statistical Modeling of Epistasis and Linkage Decay using Logic Regression [PDF]
, 2008 Logic regression has been recognized as a tool that can identify and model non-additive genetic interactions using Boolean logic groups. Logic regression, TASSEL-GLM and SAS-GLM were compared for analytical precision using a previously characterized ...

Relationships between estimated autozygosity and complex traits in the UK Biobank [PDF]
, 2018 Inbreeding increases the risk of certain Mendelian disorders in humans but may also reduce fitness through its effects on complex traits and diseases. Such inbreeding depression is thought to occur due to increased homozygosity at causal variants that ...
