The genetics of a “femaleness/maleness” score in cardiometabolic traits in the UK biobank
Scientific Reports, 2023 We recently devised continuous “sex-scores” that sum up multiple quantitative traits, weighted by their respective sex-difference effect sizes, as an approach to estimating polyphenotypic “maleness/femaleness” within each binary sex.

A possible dominant white gene in Jersey cattle [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2001 A white heifer ("Snow") was born in 1991 from coloured registered Jersey parents. She produced six calves sired by coloured Jersey bulls: three white bull calves, two white heifer calves, and one coloured bull calf. One of the white bull calves was mated with 40 Hereford x Friesian yearling heifers (white face, predominantly black body with some white ...

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2019 A cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) system is one of the most efficient ways to produce F1 hybrid seeds in pepper (Capsicum annuum). Restorer-of-fertility (Rf) genes are a critical component within the CMS/Rf system.

Variation of Dominance of Newly Arisen Adaptive Genes [PDF]
Genetics, 1997 Newly arisen adaptive alleles such as insecticide resistance genes represent a good opportunity to investigate the theories put forth to explain the molecular basis of dominance and its possible evolution. Dominance levels of insecticide resistance conferred by insensitive alleles of the acetylcholinesterase gene were analyzed in five resistant strains

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2013 Triticum aestivum-Hayaldia villosa translocation line V3 has shown effective all-stage resistance to the seven dominant pathotypes of Puccinia striiforms f. sp. tritici prevalent in China. To elucidate the genetic basis of the resistance, the segregating

Gene Therapy for Autosomal Dominant Disorders of Keratin [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 2005 Dominant mutations that interfere with the assembly of keratin filaments cause painful and disfiguring epidermal diseases like pachyonychia congenita and epidermolysis bullosa simplex. Genetic therapies for such diseases must either suppress the production of the toxic proteins or correct the genetic defect in the chromosome.

Differences in the evolutionary history of disease genes affected by dominant or recessive mutations
BMC Genomics, 2006 Background Global analyses of human disease genes by computational methods have yielded important advances in the understanding of human diseases. Generally these studies have treated the group of disease genes uniformly, thus ignoring the type of ...

Gene Expression Dominance in Allopolyploids: Hypotheses and Models [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2018 The classical example of nonadditive contributions of the two parents to allopolyploids is nucleolar dominance, which entails silencing of one parental set of ribosomal RNA genes. This has been observed for many other loci. The prevailing explanation for this genome-wide expression disparity is that the two merged genomes differ in their transposable ...
