The effects of disruptive and stabilizing selection on body size in Drosophila melanogaster. III. Genetic analysis of two lines with different reactions to disruptive selection with mating of opposite extremes [PDF]
, 1974 A genetic analysis was made of two lines which when subjected to disruptive selection with compulsary mating of opposite extremes (D−) showed a different response viz.

Kinesthetically Exploring Chromosomes from Cell Division and Meiosis to Mendelian Genetics
Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2017 Physical models are widely used to help students understand what happens to chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis. They can also be used to explicate the genotype-phenotype map.

A complete classification of epistatic two-locus models
BMC Genetics, 2008 Background The study of epistasis is of great importance in statistical genetics in fields such as linkage and association analysis and QTL mapping. In an effort to classify the types of epistasis in the case of two biallelic loci Li and Reich listed and

Efficiency of genomic selection with models including dominance effect in the context of perennial crop breeding [PDF]
, 2012 In perennial plants, varieties can be produced by clones or elite full-sib families, where both additive and non-additive effects are taken into account in the selection process.

Detection and Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci that Determine Responsiveness [PDF]
, 2004 Exposure to 70% N2O evokes a robust antinociceptive effect in C57BL/6 (B6) but not in DBA/2 (D2) inbred mice. This study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) in the mouse genome that might determine responsiveness to N2O.

Antagonistic pleiotropy, dominance, and genetic variation [PDF]
Heredity, 1982 Although the importance of antagonistic pleiotropy of genes affecting components of fitness has long been argued, explicit population genetic models involving pleiotropy have only recently been developed. Simple, deterministic models of this kind are given, and then analyzed for conditions sufficient for protected polymorphism.

Dominant Takeover Regimes for Genetic Algorithms [PDF]
, 1995 The genetic algorithm (GA) is a machine-based optimization routine which connects evolutionary learning to natural genetic laws [1–2]. The present work addresses the problem of obtaining the dominant takeover regimes in the GA dynamics. Estimated GA run times are computed for slow and fast convergence in the limits of high and low fitness ratios. Using
