Synergistic epistasis among cancer drivers can rescue early tumors from the accumulation of deleterious passengers.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
Epistasis among driver mutations is pervasive and explains relevant features of cancer, such as differential therapy response and convergence towards well-characterized molecular subtypes.

Genetic Recovery of Two Wild Seatrout Populations Following Long‐Term Stocking With Non‐Native Conspecifics

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predicting the long‐term impact of releases and introgression from non‐native strains into wild populations remains an important conservation issue, particularly in fishes where stocking and aquaculture escapes have led to widespread genetic admixture between wild and cultured conspecifics.

Evaluating Methods for Modeling Epistasis Networks with Application to Head and Neck Cancer

open access: yesCancer Informatics, 2015
Epistasis helps to explain how multiple single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) interact to cause disease. A variety of tools have been developed to detect epistasis.

Privacy-preserving decision tree for epistasis detection

open access: yesCybersecurity, 2019
The interaction between gene loci, namely epistasis, is a widespread biological genetic phenomenon. In genome-wide association studies(GWAS), epistasis detection of complex diseases is a major challenge. Although many approaches using statistics, machine

JMJ720 regulates flowering time in rice via H3K9 demethylation of Hd1

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Heading date is a crucial agronomic trait that determines the adaptability of rice to specific planting regions and seasons. Although numerous heading date genes have been well characterized in rice, epigenetic regulation of flowering time remains limited.

Epistasis correlates to genomic complexity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006
Whether systematic genetic interactions (epistasis) occur at the genomic scale remains a challenging topic in evolutionary biology. Epistasis should make a significant contribution to variation in complex traits and influence the evolution of genetic systems as sex, diploidy, dominance, or the contamination of genomes with deleterious mutations.

Influence of epistasis on response to genomic selection using complete sequence data

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2017
Background The effect of epistasis on response to selection is a highly debated topic. Here, we investigated the impact of epistasis on response to sequence-based selection via genomic best linear prediction (GBLUP) in a regime of strong non-symmetrical ...

Fruit Quality and Fusarium Wilt Race 2 Resistance in Cucumis melo Breeding Lines and Their F1 Hybrids

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cucumis melo, a sweet‐tasting fruit from the Cucurbitaceae family, is popular in global markets. While some varieties of C. melo are used for pickling or salads, melons such as cantaloupes and honeydews are consumed as a dessert. Desirable appearance, shelf life and palatability are crucial in determining a variety's success.

Machine learning‐driven GWAS uncovers novel candidate genes for resistance to frosty pod rot and witches' broom disease in cacao

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Cacao (Theobroma cacao), the source of chocolate, is threatened by devastating diseases like frosty pod rot (FPR) and witches' broom disease (WBD), impacting global production and farmer livelihoods. Here, we employ a machine learning‐driven genome‐wide association study to dissect the genetic architecture of disease resistance and ...

Coupled molecular dynamics mediate long- and short-range epistasis between mutations that affect stability and aggregation kinetics

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance Incomplete understanding of the mechanisms of epistasis between two or more substitutions in a protein can hamper protein-engineering strategies. With Escherichia coli transketolase as a model, we explore the epistatic interactions between a
