Genetic polymorphism in varietal identification and genetic improvement
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1983New sources of genetic polymorphisms promise significant additions to the number of useful genetic markers in agricultural plants and animals, and prompt this review of potential applications of polymorphic genetic markers in plant and animal breeding. Two major areas of application can be distinguished. The first is based on the utilization of genetic

Identification of the phenotype in psychiatric genetics
European Archives of Psychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience, 1993Statistical procedures and molecular genetic techniques have attained a fine degree of resolution. Their ability to find disease genes has revolutionized medicine and raised hopes for breakthroughs in psychiatry. However, such breakthroughs may require an equally discriminating nosology.

Children and Genetic Identification of Talent
Hastings Center Report, 2011The regulation of direct-to-consumer genetic testing has till now focused on identifying predispositions to specific health problems and quality issues in testing, such as analytical and clinical validity criteria. In the United States, for example, the Food and Drug Administration warned that federal regulations for medical devices will apply to ...

Population genetics for target identification
Drug Discovery Today: Technologies, 2004In this review, we address how to best use data from the Human Genome Project to discover new drug targets for common disease. We focus on population genetic approaches to identify variants associated with disease and how these can illuminate new targets and pathways for intervention.

Genetic Sex Identification in Orangutans
Anthropologischer Anzeiger, 2003To date, no established protocol for genetic sex identification in orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus) exists. In nearly all apes (gibbons, gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans), genetic sex identification is possible using the amelogenin gene because copies located on X and Y chromosomes have different sizes.

Genetic clustering for the identification of species
Proceedings of the 13th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2011Artificial life simulations can yield distinct populations of agents representing different adaptations to a common environment or specialized adaptations to different environments. Here we apply a standard clustering algorithm to the genomes of such agents to discover and characterize these subpopulations.

Population Identification Using Genetic Data
Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics, 2012A large number of algorithms have been developed to classify individuals into discrete populations using genetic data. Recent results show that the information used by both model-based clustering methods and principal components analysis can be summarized by a matrix of pairwise similarity measures between individuals.

PCR: Identification of Genetic Polymorphisms
2017Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) enables the amplification of a specific sequence of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) through the process of three main steps: template DNA denaturation, annealing of the primers to complementary sequences, and primer extension to synthesize DNA strands. By using this method, the target sequence will be copied and amplified at

Genetic search for object identification
1998We attack the problem of recognizing real, planar objects from two-dimensional, intensity images taken from arbitrary viewpoints using genetic algorithms. More specifically, we use genetic algorithms to search for a geometric mapping that brings subsets of points comprising the model and subsets of points comprising the scene into alignment.

Benefits and Burdens of Genetic Carrier Identification
Western Journal of Nursing Research, 1997This qualitative study examined experiences of adults requesting genetic-carrier testingforfour autosomal-recessive and X-linked-recessive disorders. The sample consisted of 34 adults with a positive family history or membership in an ethnic group at risk for the inherited disorder A semistructured interview guide was used to collect data during an ...
