Environmental factors influence both abundance and genetic diversity in a widespread bird species. [PDF]
Genetic diversity is one of the key evolutionary variables that correlate with population size, being of critical importance for population viability and the persistence of species. Genetic diversity can also have important ecological consequences within

Population Structure and Cryptic Relatedness in Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
We review the problem of confounding in genetic association studies, which arises principally because of population structure and cryptic relatedness. Many treatments of the problem consider only a simple ``island'' model of population structure. We take

Genetic diversity and structure analysis of Croatian garlic collection assessed by SSR markers
This study examines genetic diversity and structure of a Croatian garlic germplasm collection using 13 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. A total of 71 alleles were observed across 64 accessions representing 3 Croatian regions (Istria, Dalmatia and ...

Psychometric precision in phenotype definition is a useful step in molecular genetic investigation of psychiatric disorders [PDF]
Affective disorders are highly heritable, but few genetic risk variants have been consistently replicated in molecular genetic association studies. The common method of defining psychiatric phenotypes in molecular genetic research is either a summation ...

Notch signaling: genetics and structure [PDF]
Receptors of the Notch family mediate cell-cell interactions during animal development, and aberrations in Notch signaling have been implicated in human disease. Studies in Caenorhabdits elegans have made essential contributions towards understanding the biological roles and molecular mechanism of this fundamental signaling system.
