Genome-Wide Analysis of Lipoxygenase (LOX) Genes in Angiosperms
Plants, 2023 Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are enzymes that catalyze the addition of an oxygen molecule to unsaturated fatty acids, thus forming hydroperoxides. In plants, these enzymes are encoded by a multigene family found in several organs with varying activity patterns ...

Improved selection of participants in genetic longevity studies: family scores revisited
BMC Medical Research Methodology, 2021 Background Although human longevity tends to cluster within families, genetic studies on longevity have had limited success in identifying longevity loci. One of the main causes of this limited success is the selection of participants.

Selection effects on diversity and genetic gain.
Silva Fennica, 1991 Four different methods of truncation selection were studied in a population consisting of a large number of unrelated full sib families of equal size: phenotype selection, family selection, within-family selection and combined index selection (optimal ...
