Genetic Variability Under the Seedbank Coalescent [PDF]

Genetics, 2015
Abstract We analyze patterns of genetic variability of populations in the presence of a large seedbank with the help of a new coalescent structure called the seedbank coalescent. This ancestral process appears naturally as a scaling limit of the genealogy of large populations that sustain seedbanks, if the seedbank size and individual

Studies on Genetic Variability in Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii Bolus Ex. Hooker F.)

Journal of Horticultural Sciences, 2013
Thirteen genotypes of gerbera were evaluated under naturally-ventilated polyhouse in Completely Randomized Block Design during the year 2011-12 to determine genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance for 15 quantitative traits, based on which

Genetic Influence on Inflammation Variables in the Elderly [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2004
Background—Inflammation variables (C-reactive protein [CRP], fibrinogen, and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 [sICAM-1]) have been identified as risk factors for cardiovascular disease. It is still not known how much the regulation of inflammatory risk factors is determined by genetic factors, and the aim of this study was to determine the ...

Genetic variability of rye-xenic-hybrid traits

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
In field experiments performed in two localities (Smolice, Wrocław) 18 xenic hybrids of winter rye, two testers and standard cultivar Dańkowskie Złote, were analysed. The objects of detailed evaluations were 11 traits. For six of them arithmetic means (x)

Structure and genetic diversity of Theobroma speciosum (Malvaceae) and implications for Brazilian Amazon conservation

Rodriguésia, 2021
The genetic diversity of Theobroma speciosum is important because its use in breeding programs, once the species is closely related to species of great economic value such as Theobroma cacao (cocoa) and Theobroma grandiflorum (cupuaçu).

EUSOCIALITY AND GENETIC VARIABILITY: A RE-EVALUATION [PDF]

Evolution, 1985
Recently, much attention has focused on the patterning of intraspecific genetic variation among solitary, primitively eusocial, and advanced eusocial Hymenoptera. Berkelhamer (1983), after an analysis of electrophoretic data from 51 hymenopteran species, concludes that primitively eusocial species are less genetically variable than are either solitary ...

Additive Genetic Variability and the Bayesian Alphabet [PDF]

Genetics, 2009
Abstract The use of all available molecular markers in statistical models for prediction of quantitative traits has led to what could be termed a genomic-assisted selection paradigm in animal and plant breeding. This article provides a critical review of some theoretical and statistical concepts in the context of genomic-assisted genetic

Genetic diversity of Sardinian goat population based on microsatellites

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
During the last century, the selection for production traits of the main livestock species has led to a reduction in number of local populations with consequent loss of genetic variability.
