Invasion of Europe by the western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera: multiple transatlantic introductions with various reductions of genetic diversity [PDF]

, 2008
The early stages of invasion involve demographic bottlenecks that may result in lower genetic variation in introduced populations as compared to source population/s. Low genetic variability may decrease the adaptive potential of such populations in their

Genetic variability, heritability, and genetic advance of morphological, yield related and quality traits in upland rice (Oryza Sativa L.) genotypes at pawe, northwestern Ethiopia

Cogent Food & Agriculture, 2023
The rice production in Ethiopia is less than the world’s average due to the lack of varieties with high yield potential. Evaluation of genetic variability is important in the rice breeding program for the production of high yielding varieties.

Genetics and Variable Drug Response [PDF]

JAMA, 2011
Annual health care expenditures currently exceed $2.5 trillion in the United States, a cost burden equivalent to more than $8000 per person per year. Treatment strategies designed to optimize efficacy, ie, avoiding therapeutic failure while minimizing toxicity, hold the potential to reduce this cost burden.
