Analysis of protein-coding genetic variation in 60,706 humans

open access: yesNature, 2015
Large-scale reference data sets of human genetic variation are critical for the medical and functional interpretation of DNA sequence changes. Here we describe the aggregation and analysis of high-quality exome (protein-coding region) DNA sequence data ...

Levels of genetic polymorphism: marker loci versus quantitative traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Species are the units used to measure ecological diversity and alleles are the units of genetic diversity. Genetic variation within and among species has been documented most extensively using allozyme electrophoresis.

An integrated map of genetic variation from 1,092 human genomes

open access: yesNature, 2012
By characterizing the geographic and functional spectrum of human genetic variation, the 1000 Genomes Project aims to build a resource to help to understand the genetic contribution to disease.

Phenotypic robustness can increase phenotypic variability after non-genetic perturbations in gene regulatory circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Non-genetic perturbations, such as environmental change or developmental noise, can induce novel phenotypes. If an induced phenotype confers a fitness advantage, selection may promote its genetic stabilization. Non-genetic perturbations can thus initiate

Using eQTL weights to improve power for genome-wide association studies: a genetic study of childhood asthma

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2013
Increasing evidence suggests that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with complex traits are more likely to be expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs).

Genetic Variation of Leafhopper, Nephotettix Virescens Distant Active Transmitters From Endemic and Non Endemic Areas of Rice Tungro Disease Based on RAPD Marker [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Genetic variation of leafhopper, Nephotettix virescens Distant active transmitters from endemic and non endemic areas of rice tungro disease based on RAPD marker. Leafhopper, Nephotettix virescens Distant (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) plays an important role

Network-assisted analysis of GWAS data identifies a functionally-relevant gene module for childhood-onset asthma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The number of genetic factors associated with asthma remains limited. To identify new genes with an undetected individual effect but collectively influencing asthma risk, we conducted a network-assisted analysis that integrates outcomes of genome-wide ...

Reduced Neuronal Transcription of Escargot, the Drosophila Gene Encoding a Snail-Type Transcription Factor, Promotes Longevity

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
In recent years, several genes involved in complex neuron specification networks have been shown to control life span. However, information on these genes is scattered, and studies to discover new neuronal genes and gene cascades contributing to life ...

Genetic variability for vigor and yield of robusta coffee (Coffea canephora) clones in Ghana

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Effectiveness of plant improvement programs, especially in perennial crops like coffee, may be improved by knowing the level of genetic variation which exist within a breeding population coupled with the knowledge of estimates of genetic parameters for ...

Wild worm embryogenesis harbors ubiquitous polygenic modifier variation

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Embryogenesis is an essential and stereotypic process that nevertheless evolves among species. Its essentiality may favor the accumulation of cryptic genetic variation (CGV) that has no effect in the wild-type but that enhances or suppresses the effects ...
