Joint modeling of human cortical structure: Genetic correlation network and composite-trait genetic correlation [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage
Heritability and genetic covariance/correlation quantify the marginal and shared genetic effects across traits. They offer insights on the genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases. To explore how genetic variations contribute to brain function

Multivariate analysis as a tool in the initial selections of golden flax (Linum usitatissimum L.)

open access: yesRevista de Ciências Agroveterinárias, 2022
The genetic variability in plant populations can be estimated through multivariate analysis, which allows to analyze the genotypes based on a set of traits to identify the traits with the greatest influence for the divergence and the correlation between

Indirect Selection for Seed Yield in Sacha-Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) in Brazil

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2022
Breeding programs for improvement of sacha-inchi, Plukenetia volubilis L., generally aim to select individuals with greater seed yield since there is a strong correlation between seed yield and oil production.

No bidirectional relationship between depression and periodontitis: A genetic correlation and Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundObservational and in-vivo research suggested a bidirectional relationship between depression and periodontitis. We estimated the genetic correlation and examined directionality of causation.MethodsThe study used summary statistics from ...

Genetic variability for vigor and yield of robusta coffee (Coffea canephora) clones in Ghana

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Effectiveness of plant improvement programs, especially in perennial crops like coffee, may be improved by knowing the level of genetic variation which exist within a breeding population coupled with the knowledge of estimates of genetic parameters for ...

Perspectives on Applications of Hierarchical Gene-To-Phenotype (G2P) Maps to Capture Non-stationary Effects of Alleles in Genomic Prediction

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Genomic prediction of complex traits across environments, breeding cycles, and populations remains a challenge for plant breeding. A potential explanation for this is that underlying non-additive genetic (GxG) and genotype-by-environment (GxE ...

Inverse relationship between genetic diversity and epigenetic complexity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Early studies of molecular evolution revealed a correlation between genetic distance and time of species divergence. This observation provoked the molecular clock hypothesis and in turn the ‘Neutral Theory’, which however remains an ...

Most of the genetic covariation between major depressive and alcohol use disorders is explained by trait measures of negative emotionality and behavioral control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background Mental health disorders commonly co-occur, even between conceptually distinct syndromes, such as internalizing and externalizing disorders.

The estimation of genetic parameters for growth curve traits in Raeini Cashmere goat described by Gompertz model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The objectives of this study were to describe growth curve of Raeini Cashmere goat applying the Gompertz growth model and genetic evaluation of growth curve-related traits including model parameters of A, B and K, inflection age (IA) and inflection ...

Genetic parameters and genetic and phenotypic trends of performance traits of equines from the Brazilian Army

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2012
The objective of this research was to compare the magnitude of genetic parameters (coefficients of heritability and genetic correlation) as estimated by the Restricted Maximum Likelihood (REML) method and Bayesian Inference, and to estimate the genetic ...
