Assessment of genotyping markers in the molecular characterization of a population of clinical isolates of Fusarium in Colombia

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2022
Introduction: Fusarium is a very heterogeneous group of fungi, difficult to classify, with a wide range of living styles, acting as saprophytes, parasites of plants, or pathogens for humans and animals.

Information-Geometric Optimization with Natural Selection

Entropy, 2020
Evolutionary algorithms, inspired by natural evolution, aim to optimize difficult objective functions without computing derivatives. Here we detail the relationship between classical population genetics of quantitative traits and evolutionary ...

Chromosomal phase improves aneuploidy detection in non-invasive prenatal testing at low fetal DNA fractions

Scientific Reports, 2022
Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) to detect fetal aneuploidy by sequencing the cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in maternal plasma is being broadly adopted. To detect fetal aneuploidies from maternal plasma, where fetal DNA is mixed with far-larger amounts of ...

Diferencias genéticas entre poblaciones de Aedes aegypti de municipios del norte de Colombia, con baja y alta incidencia de dengue

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2013
Introducción. Aedes aegypti es el principal vector del dengue en zonas urbanas. A pesar de su importancia epidemiológica, se desconoce la variabilidad genética de las poblaciones del vector en Colombia. Objetivo.

Archetypal Analysis for population genetics.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2022
The estimation of genetic clusters using genomic data has application from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to demographic history to polygenic risk scores (PRS) and is expected to play an important role in the analyses of increasingly diverse ...

The population genetics of dN/dS. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2008
Evolutionary pressures on proteins are often quantified by the ratio of substitution rates at non-synonymous and synonymous sites. The dN/dS ratio was originally developed for application to distantly diverged sequences, the differences among which ...

Landscape of multi-nucleotide variants in 125,748 human exomes and 15,708 genomes

Nature Communications, 2020
Multi-nucleotide variants (MNV) are genetic variants in close proximity of each other on the same haplotype whose functional impact is difficult to predict if they reside in the same codon. Here, Wang et al. use the gnomAD dataset to assemble a catalogue
