Genetic correlations in mutation processes [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 1999
We study the role of phylogenetic trees on correlations in mutation processes. Generally, correlations decay exponentially with the generation number. We find that two distinct regimes of behavior exist. For mutation rates smaller than a critical rate, the underlying tree morphology is almost irrelevant, while mutation rates higher than this critical ...

Genetic parameters and correlations of related feed efficiency, growth, and carcass traits in Hanwoo beef cattle [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Bioscience, 2021
Objective This study aimed to estimate the genetic parameters and genetic correlations for related feed efficiency, growth, and carcass traits in Hanwoo cattle. Methods Phenotypic data from 15,279 animals born between 1989 and 2015 were considered.

AN EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF GENETIC CORRELATION [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1973
ABSTRACT Heritability and genetic correlations realized from both single-trait and antagonistic index selection were compared with paternal half-sib estimates. Primary attention was focused on the genetic correlation between six-week body weight and six-week tail length.

A COMPARISON OF GENETIC AND PHENOTYPIC CORRELATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1988
Genetic variances and correlations lie at the center of quantitative evolutionary theory. They are often difficult to estimate, however, due to the large samples of related individuals that are required. I investigated the relationship of genetic- and phenotypic-correlation magnitudes and patterns in 41 pairs of matrices drawn from the literature in ...

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 ...

On the Sampling Variance of Intraclass Correlations and Genetic Correlations [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1998
Abstract Widely used standard expressions for the sampling variance of intraclass correlations and genetic correlation coefficients were reviewed for small and large sample sizes. For the sampling variance of the intraclass correlation, it was shown by simulation that the commonly used expression, derived using a first-order Taylor ...

Genetic parameters of traits at the juvenile stage of different assai palm tree progenies [PDF]

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2018
: The objective of this work was to estimate genetic parameters of traits at the juvenile stage of different assai palm (Euterpe oleracea) tree progenies, as well as to select among and within the most promising for fruit production.

Alcohol Consumption and Risk of Common Autoimmune Inflammatory Diseases—Evidence From a Large-Scale Genetic Analysis Totaling 1 Million Individuals

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Purpose: Observational studies have suggested a protective effect of alcohol intake with autoimmune disorders, which was not supported by Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses that used only a few (<20) instrumental variables.Methods: We systemically ...

Physician-Confirmed and Administrative Definitions of Stroke in UK Biobank Reflect the Same Underlying Genetic Trait

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundStroke in UK Biobank (UKB) is ascertained via linkages to coded administrative datasets and self-report. We studied the accuracy of these codes using genetic validation.MethodsWe compiled stroke-specific and broad cerebrovascular disease (CVD ...
