Comparison of alternative approaches to single-trait genomic prediction using genotyped and non-genotyped Hanwoo beef cattle. [PDF]
BackgroundGenomic predictions from BayesA and BayesB use training data that include animals with both phenotypes and genotypes. Single-step methodologies allow additional information from non-genotyped relatives to be included in the analysis. The single-

Bisphenol A (BPA), a common chemical in plastics, exerts dual effects on bladder cancer cells: low doses promote growth and migration, while high doses suppress growth and migration. Multi‐omics and bioinformatics reveal BPA acts via MAPK and inflammatory pathways.

Relationship between bull dam herd characteristics and bias in estimated breeding value of bull
The objective of the study was to relate estimated breeding values (EBVs) of the parents’ 305-days protein production and the bull dam herd-year characteristics to the empirical bias in pedigree indices (difference between the pedigree index and the ...

Societal Costs of Late Blight in Potato and Prospects of Durable Resistance Through Cisgenic Modification [PDF]
In the European Union almost 6 Mha of potatoes are grown representing a value of close to ¿6,000,000,000. Late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans causes annual losses (costs of control and damage) estimated at more than ¿1,000,000,000.

Recursive Estimation of Breeding Values with Categorical Data
Abstract Recursive estimation is a process of sequential updating of parameter estimates when data become available in stages. Bayes' theorem, which describes the accumulation of knowledge about parameters, is used to develop a recursive procedure for estimating breeding values of threshold characters. The likelihood of the data at stage k is combined

Despite frogs avoiding low temperatures, examination of four salamander species revealed that none avoided cold and all possessed cold tolerance. Functional analysis of TRPM8, a cold sensor, showed that all salamander TRPM8s had lost their cold sensitivity.

Rapid screening of staphylokinase protein variants using an unpurified cell‐free expression system
An unpurified cell‐free protein synthesis (CFPS) platform enables rapid functional screening of staphylokinase variants. Direct plasminogen‐activation assays performed in microplate format provide real‐time activity readouts, allowing rapid identification and ranking of variants with improved or reduced fibrinolytic activity without protein ...

Genomic selection in rubber tree breeding: A comparison of models and methods for managing G×E interactions [PDF]
Several genomic prediction models combining genotype × environment (G×E) interactions have recently been developed and used for genomic selection (GS) in plant breeding programs. G×E interactions reduce selection accuracy and limit genetic gains in plant
