Gene Flow, Effective Population Sizes, and Genetic Variance Components in Birds [PDF]
Evolution, 1980 The genetic structure of natural populations is of general interest because many current models in ecology and evolution involve assumptions about the viscosity of breeding populations. For instance, theories of group and kinship selection, local adaptation, and speciation all depend on the magnitude of an among-deme component of genetic variance.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Chemoimmunotherapy with irinotecan, temozolomide, and dinutuximab (I/T/DIN) has emerged as first‐line therapy for relapsed/refractory (r/r) high‐risk neuroblastoma (HRNB) in North America. Topotecan and cyclophosphamide (T/C) are often used in combination with dinutuximab in the setting of lack of response, progression, or incomplete ...

Clinical Course and Impact of Breaks in Therapy for Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors carry a dismal prognosis, and postrelapse patient experiences are not well described. We present postrelapse outcomes, including number of R/R events and subsequent therapy regimens.

Genetic components of birth weight of texel sheep reared in extensive system
Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2017 This study aimed to estimate the components of (co)variance, genetic and phenotypic parameters and trends for birth weight. We used 783 birth weight records, between 2012 to 2016, of Texel sheep reared in extensive system.

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2010 Background In the analysis of complex traits, genetic effects can be confounded with non-genetic effects, especially when using full-sib families. Dominance and epistatic effects are typically confounded with additive genetic and non-genetic effects ...

Genetic variance of sunflower yield components - Heliantus annuus L.
Genetika, 2003 The main goals of sunflower breeding in Yugoslavia and abroad are increased seed yield and oil content per unit area and increased resistance to diseases, insects and stress conditions via an optimization of plant architecture. In order to determine the mode of inheritance, gene effects and correlations of total leaf number per plant, total leaf area ...

Implementing Health‐Related Quality of Life Assessment in Pediatric Oncology: A Feasibility Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background There is growing interest in embedding health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) within clinical cancer care. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of implementing an electronic PROM (ePROM) platform to measure HRQoL in children with cancer ...

Treatment Decision‐Making Roles and Preferences Among Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Decision‐making (DM) dynamics between adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer, parents, and oncologists remain underexplored in diverse populations. We examined cancer treatment DM preferences among an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse group of AYAs and their parents.

BMC Genomics, 2021 Background Genomic prediction is now an essential technology for genetic improvement in animal and plant breeding. Whereas emphasis has been placed on predicting the breeding values, the prediction of non-additive genetic effects has also been of ...
