Correlation between genetic polymorphisms and stroke recovery: analysis of the GAIN Americas and GAIN International Studies [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Recovery after stroke occurs on the basis of specific molecular events. Genetic polymorphisms associated with impaired neural repair or plasticity might reduce recovery from stroke and might also account for some of the ...

Expected Genetic Contributions and Their Impact on Gene Flow and Genetic Gain [PDF]
Abstract Long-term genetic contributions (ri) measure lasting gene flow from an individual i. By accounting for linkage disequilibrium generated by selection both within and between breeding groups (categories), assuming the infinitesimal model, a general formula was derived for the expected contribution of ancestor i in category q (μi(q)

Preservation of Genetic Variation in a Breeding Population for Long-Term Genetic Gain [PDF]
Abstract Genomic selection has been successfully implemented in plant and animal breeding. The transition of parental selection based on phenotypic characteristics to genomic selection (GS) has reduced breeding time and cost while accelerating the rate of genetic progression. Although breeding methods have been adapted to include genomic

Heterobeltiosis in Banana and Genetic Gains through Crossbreeding [PDF]
Heterosis, or hybrid vigour, is the superiority of the hybrid for a certain trait over the mean of its two parents. Heterobeltiosis is a form of heterosis where the hybrid is superior to its best parent. Banana breeding is a tedious, time-consuming process, taking up to two decades to develop a hybrid.
