The power of many: when genetics met yeasts and high‐throughput

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, complex technological capabilities have evolved, driven by the need to solve complex and integrative biological questions through global analyses. New equipment allows the scaling up and automation of processes which previously were carried out on a very limited scale.

Epistasis in complex human traits

open access: yes, 2006
Epistasis (gene-gene interaction) is a universal component of common complex genetic traits. The identification and characterization of epistatic interactions are crucial to a full understanding of the complex genetic mechanisms that underlie human ...

Variant‐Specific Landscape of Mutual Exclusivity Among BRAF, EGFR, and KRAS Oncogenes Reveals Overlap With Functionally Antagonistic Mutant Pairs

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Mutual exclusivity and co‐occurrence of oncogenic mutations reflect functional antagonism or dependence and may inform therapeutic strategies. However, most studies overlook variant‐level patterns. In this comprehensive, cross‐cohort analysis of BRAF, KRAS, and EGFR mutation subtypes, the most significant mutual exclusivity pairs overlapped with ...

Speciation Genetics: Epistasis, Conflict and the Origin of Species [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2007
Evolutionary biologists have long recognized that the sterility and inviability of species hybrids must involve incompatible epistatic interactions between two (or more) genes. The first pair of such hybrid incompatibility genes has now been identified.

Contribution of genetic effects to genetic variance components with epistasis and linkage disequilibrium [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2009
Cockerham genetic models are commonly used in quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis with a special feature of partitioning genotypic variances into various genetic variance components, while the F(infinity) genetic models are widely used in genetic association studies. Over years, there have been some confusion about the relationship between these two

Whole genome sequencing reveals epistasis effects within RET for Hirschsprung disease

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Common variants in RET and NRG1 have been associated with Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), a congenital disorder characterised by incomplete innervation of distal gut, in East Asian (EA) populations.

Beyond natural variation: The era of rational design in plant immunity

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolutionary arms race between crops and pathogens has reached a critical impasse: pathogen adaptation consistently outpaces the development of resistant varieties through conventional breeding. This growing imbalance highlights the need to move beyond the exclusive reliance on natural variation toward more predictive and design‐oriented ...

Genetic mapping of sterile genes with epistasis in backcross designs [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 2013
The mapping of sterile genes is an essential issue, which should be solved for the investigation of sterility mechanism in wide hybridization of plants. However, the methods formerly developed cannot address the problem of mapping sterile loci with epistasis.

QTL Mapping and Heterosis Analysis for Fiber Quality Traits Across Multiple Genetic Populations and Environments in Upland Cotton

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
An “immortalized F2” (IF2) population and two reciprocal backcross (HSBCF1 and MARBCF1) populations were constructed to investigate the genetic bases of fiber quality traits in upland cotton across four different environments.

Performance of model-based multifactor dimensionality reduction methods for epistasis detection by controlling population structure

open access: yesBioData Mining, 2021
Background In genome-wide association studies the extent and impact of confounding due to population structure have been well recognized. Inadequate handling of such confounding is likely to lead to spurious associations, hampering replication, and the ...
