Fitness ranking of individual mutants drives patterns of epistatic interactions in HIV-1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Fitness interactions between mutations, referred to as epistasis, can strongly impact evolution. For RNA viruses and retroviruses with their high mutation rates, epistasis may be particularly important to overcome fitness losses due to the accumulation ...

Natural Variations in the Activity of Hydroxycinnamoyl Transferases Promote Accumulation of Metabolites Conferring Rice Resistance

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant‐derived secondary metabolites act as regulators of in planta defence. Plant phenylpropanoid metabolic compounds, including final metabolites such as lignin and flavonoids, and a few intermediate metabolites play critical roles in defence.

DNAwhisper: An Integrated Deep Learning Pyramidal Framework for Multi‐Trait Genomic Prediction and Adaptive Marker Prioritisation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genomic selection (GS) is critical for accelerating genetic gain in modern plant breeding. Deep learning approaches offer powerful non‐linear representation capabilities for modelling non‐additive effects. However, their application in GS remains restricted, as high‐dimensional, low‐sample and noisy data hinder the identification of ...

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.

A Low Resolution Epistasis Mapping Approach To Identify Chromosome Arm Interactions in Allohexaploid Wheat

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Epistasis is an important contributor to genetic variance. In inbred populations, pairwise epistasis is present as additive by additive interactions.

Long-Range Epistasis Mediated by Structural Change in a Model of Ligand Binding Proteins. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Recent analyses of amino acid mutations in proteins reveal that mutations at many pairs of sites are epistatic-i.e., their effects on fitness are non-additive-the combined effect of two mutations being significantly larger or smaller than the sum of ...

Artificial intelligence‐powered plant phenomics: Progress, challenges, and opportunities

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI), a key driver of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is being rapidly integrated into plant phenomics to automate sensing, accelerate data analysis, and support decision‐making in phenomic prediction and genomic selection.

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 ...

A century of theories of balancing selection

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 804-825, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.
