Genetic Variation of PPARs [PDF]
PPAR Research, 2009 Welcome to this special issue of PPAR Research dedicated to the “Genetic Variation of PPARs.” Since PPARs are nuclear transcription factors regulating multiple genes involved in energy production, glucose and lipid metabolism, polymorphisms in these receptors may influence the pathology of numerous diseases including obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis,

Genetic variation in healthy oldest-old. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Individuals who live to 85 and beyond without developing major age-related diseases may achieve this, in part, by lacking disease susceptibility factors, or by possessing resistance factors that enhance their ability to avoid disease and prolong lifespan.

Genetic Variation and Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Current Genomics, 2008 A family history of atherosclerosis is independently associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular events. The genetic factors underlying the importance of inheritance in atherosclerosis are starting to be understood. Genetic variation, such as mutations or common polymorphisms has been shown to be involved in modulation of a range of risk ...

Cryptic genetic variation [PDF]
Current Biology, 2008 What is cryptic genetic variation? Cryptic genetic variation refers to unexpressed, bottled-up genetic potential. It is not normally seen, but is expressed under abnormal conditions such as in a new environment or a different genetic background.

Genetic Variation for Striga hermonthica Resistance and Yield Among Sorghum Accessions in Nigeria [PDF]
, 2020 Striga hermonthica (Delile) Benth., commonly referred to as witch weed, is a major constraint to sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) production in the Northern region of Nigeria because of high yield losses due to infestation.

Genetic variation in the zebrafish [PDF]
Genome Research, 2006 Although zebrafish was introduced as a laboratory model organism several decades ago and now serves as a primary model for developmental biology, there is only limited data on its genetic variation. An establishment of a dense polymorphism map becomes a requirement for effective linkage analysis and cloning approaches in zebrafish. By comparing ESTs to

Inter‐ and intraspecific variation in mycotoxin tolerance: A study of four Drosophila species
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Many mycophagous Drosophila species have adapted to tolerate high concentrations of mycotoxins, an ability not reported in any other eukaryotes. Although an association between mycophagy and mycotoxin tolerance has been established in many Drosophila ...
