THE EVOLUTION OF GENETIC CORRELATIONS: AN ANALYSIS OF PATTERNS [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 1996
The genetic correlation is a central parameter of quantitative genetics, providing a measure of the rate at which traits respond to indirect selection (i.e., selection that does not act upon the traits under study, but some other trait with which they have genes in common).

Machine learning study on predicting depressive symptoms and genetic correlations in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience
Depressive symptoms are prevalent in individuals with Parkinson’s disease. Previous research has demonstrated a significant association between the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and depression.

Genetic correlations, tradeoffs and environmental variation [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 2004
Negative genetic correlations among traits are often used as evidence for tradeoffs that can influence evolutionary trajectories in populations. While there may be evidence for negative correlations within a particular environment, genetic correlations can shift when populations encounter different environmental conditions.

Variation in Methyl Jasmonate-Induced Defense Among Norway Spruce Clones and Trade-Offs in Resistance Against a Fungal and an Insect Pest

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
An essential component of plant defense is the change that occurs from a constitutive to an induced state following damage or infection. Exogenous application of the plant hormone methyl jasmonate (MeJA) has shown great potential to be used as a defense ...

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.

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 ...

Genomic Analysis of Milk Protein Fractions in Brown Swiss Cattle

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Depending on whether milk protein fractions are evaluated qualitatively or quantitatively, different genetic outcomes may emerge. In this study, we compared the genetic parameters for the major milk protein fractions—caseins (αS1-, αS2-, &

Quantitative Genetics of Smoltification Status at the Time of Seawater Transfer in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo Salar)

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
High mortality during grow out in the sea is a challenge for farmed Atlantic salmon production in Norway and globally, which is partly attributed to suboptimal smolt quality.

Heritability and genetic correlations of personality, life history and morphology in the grey mouse lemur (Microcebus murinus) [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
The recent interest in animal personality has sparked a number of studies on the heritability of personality traits. Yet, how the sources variance these traits can be decomposed remains unclear.
