Breeding Strategies to Optimize Effective Population Size in Low Census Captive Populations: The Case of Gazella cuvieri

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Small-sized animal populations can undergo significant loss of genetic variability that can lead to their extinction. Therefore, studies on animal breeding have focused on mating systems for minimizing the disappearance of genetic variability.

Communication and Language Profiles of Children Treated for Posterior Fossa Brain Tumors

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cognitive and language deficits are frequently reported sequelae of posterior fossa brain tumors (PFBT). Typically, delayed onset impedes prompt assessment and early intervention. This has devastating implications for quality of life.

Application of a novel 50K SNP genotyping array to assess the genetic diversity and linkage disequilibrium in a farmed Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) population

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2021
The inclusion of genomic information became a reality in shrimp breeding and it is expected to accelerate the genetic gain over time. The decay of linkage disequilibrium (LD) between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is an important measure to ...

Effective population size of current human population

open access: yesGenetics Research, 2011
SummaryIn order to estimate the effective population size (Ne) of the current human population, two new approaches, which were derived from previous methods, were used in this study. One is based on the deviation from linkage equilibrium (LE) between completely unlinked loci in different chromosomes and another is based on the deviation from the Hardy ...

The effect of population structure, plant size, herbivory and reproductive potential on effective population size in the temperate epiphytic orchid, Sarcochilus australis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Distribution of plant size and reproductive success is investigated in the temperate epiphytic orchid Sarcochilus australis (Lindl.) Rchb. f. at Kinglake National Park, Victoria, in south-eastern Australia, and applied to estimating the effective ...

The HIT Network for Children and Adolescents With CNS Tumors Facilitates Improvements of Diagnostic Assessments, Multimodal Treatments, Individual Counseling, and Research in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The HIT network was established in 2000 to create a population‐based structure aiming to improve survival rates and reduce late effects for children with central nervous system (CNS) tumors by conducting comprehensive clinical trials.

Can effective population size estimates be used to monitor population trends of woodland bats? A case study of Myotis bechsteinii

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Molecular approaches to calculate effective population size estimates (Ne) are increasingly used as an alternative to long‐term demographic monitoring of wildlife populations.

Estimating effective population size of large marine populations, is it feasible?

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, 2018
Sustainable exploitation of marine populations is a challenging task relying on information about their current and past abundance. Fisheries‐related data can be scarce and unreliable making them unsuitable for quantitative modelling.

The Effective Size of a Subdivided Population [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1997
This paper derives the long-term effective size, Ne, for a general model of population subdivision, allowing for differential deme fitness, variable emigration and immigration rates, extinction, colonization, and correlations across generations in these processes. We show that various long-term measures of Ne, are equivalent.

Effects of Cancer Treatment on Somatosensory and Nociceptive Processing in Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy remains a major complication in pediatric cancer, with disrupted somatosensory and nociceptive processing being a key aspect. This review synthesizes empirical studies on alterations in somatosensory and nociceptive processing in children and adolescents with cancer.
