Robust forward simulations of recurrent hitchhiking [PDF]
Evolutionary forces shape patterns of genetic diversity within populations and contribute to phenotypic variation. In particular, recurrent positive selection has attracted significant interest in both theoretical and empirical studies.

Distributed parameter tuning for genetic algorithms [PDF]
Genetic Algorithms (GA) is a family of search algorithms based on the mechanics of natural selection and biological evolution. They are able to efficiently exploit historical information in the evolution process to look for optimal solutions or ...

Identifying early indicator traits for sow longevity using a linear-threshold model in Thai Large White and Landrace females [PDF]
Objective The objective of the study was to investigate the possibility of utilizing an early litter size trait as an indirect selection trait for longevity and to estimate genetic parameters between sow stayability and litter size at different parities ...

Genetic Parameters of Bovine Serum Immunoglobulins
Radial immunodiffusion techniques were used to determine serum concentrations of immunoglobulins G1, G2, M, and A in 1,293 daughters of 282 Holstein-Friesian sires from 31 herds in southwestern Ontario, Canada. Mean serum immunoglobulin concentrations (mg/100 ml) were 2,163, 2,409, 531, and 107 for immunoglobulins G1, G2, M, and A, respectively.
