The Adaptive Significance of Natural Genetic Variation in the DNA Damage Response of Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
Despite decades of work, our understanding of the distribution of fitness effects of segregating genetic variants in natural populations remains largely incomplete. One form of selection that can maintain genetic variation is spatially varying selection,

GENETIC SELECTION | Evaluation and Methods [PDF]
The ultimate goal of animal selection is to create a new generation of animals that are superior to the current population. Superior is interpreted broadly to include functionality of animals, cost reduction of production, consumer perception, quality of products, and reduced environmental impact.

Multilayer perceptron applied to genotypes classification in diallel studies
: In the last decades, a new trend to use more refined analytical procedures, such as artificial neural networks (ANN), has emerged to be most accurate, efficient, and extensively applied for mining and data prediction in different contexts, including ...

Selection strategies for randomly partitioned genetic replicators [PDF]
The amplification cycle of many replicators (natural or artificial) involves the usage of a host compartment, inside of which the replicator express phenotypic compounds necessary to carry out its genetic replication.

: The Fisher’s infinitesimal model is traditionally used in quantitative genetics and genomic selection, and it attributes most genetic variance to additive variance.

Faster, smaller, easier, and better—DNA sequencing technologies have improved by quantum leaps in the past decade. This Genetics Select highlights recent studies that demonstrate how these technological advances have greatly expanded the scope and power of human genetics, especially in the blossoming fields of personalized medicine and palaeogenetics.

Inbreeding management and optimization of genetic gain with phenotypic and genomic selection in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis)[W776] [PDF]
Oil palm breeding relies on reciprocal recurrent selection between two heterotic groups complementary for bunch number and average bunch weight. Given the long generation interval and the limited selection intensity imposed by the progeny tests currently

Phenotypic robustness can increase phenotypic variability after non-genetic perturbations in gene regulatory circuits [PDF]
Non-genetic perturbations, such as environmental change or developmental noise, can induce novel phenotypes. If an induced phenotype confers a fitness advantage, selection may promote its genetic stabilization. Non-genetic perturbations can thus initiate
