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

NeuroImage
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.)

Revista 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

Horticulturae, 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.
