Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...

Animal, 2011 Alternative Norwegian sheep breeding schemes were evaluated by stochastic simulation of a breeding population with about 120 000 ewes, considering the gain for an aggregate genotype including nine traits and also the rate of inbreeding. The schemes were:

Improved sampling of the pareto-front in multiobjective genetic optimizations by steady-state evolution: a Pareto converging genetic algorithm [PDF]
, 2002 Previous work on multiobjective genetic algorithms has been focused on preventing genetic drift and the issue of convergence has been given little attention.

Multistage selection for genetic gain by orthogonal transformation. [PDF]
Genetics, 1991 Abstract An exact transformed culling method for any number of traits or stages of selection with explicit solution for multistage selection is described in this paper. This procedure does not need numerical integration and is suitable for obtaining either desired genetic gains for a variable proportion selected or optimum aggregate ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The pediatric hematology‐oncology fellowship training curriculum has not substantially changed since its inception. The first year of training is clinically focused, and the second and third years are devoted to scholarship. However, this current structure leaves many fellows less competitive in the current job market, resulting in ...

Assessment of Efficiency of Breeding Methods in Accelerating Genetic Gain in Rice
AgronomyThe pedigree, bulk, and single-seed descent-based rapid generation advance methods are commonly practiced breeding methods in rice. But the efficiency of these breeding methods in enhancing genetic gain has not been investigated yet.
