Introduction to Quantitative Genetics

Quantitative Genetics, 2012
So far in this course we have dealt entirely either with the evolution of characters that are controlled by simple Mendelian inheritance at a single locus or with the evolution of molecular sequences.

On the Genetics and Population Genetics of Gm(4)

Human Heredity, 1976
Investigations on 70 German families with 142 children confirmed the autosomal-dominant inheritance of Gm(4). However, in our material as well as in the materials published so far, Gm(4) X Gm(-4) parental combinations show clear surplusses of Gm(4) and deficits of Gm(-4) children, which might indicate prenatal selection.

Genetic Structures in the Population of Veneto

Human Heredity, 1992
The genetic structures of the population residing in the provinces of Venice and Rovigo in the Veneto region at the north of the Po delta in Italy was studied in 1,210 individuals residing in 18 sampling areas, using the phenotype and gene frequencies of 7 red cell enzymes: acid phosphatase (ACP1), esterase D (ESD), glyoxalase I (GLOI), glutamic ...

Genetics of Human Populations

1948
Publisher Summary This chapter presents the genetics of human population. The primary point of departure in experimental genetics is to study the hereditary factors that determine certain characters. The chapter discusses three types of characters— namely: (1) hereditary characters in the limited sense; (2) characters due to the environment; and (3 ...

Genetics and Population History of Caucasus Populations

Human Biology, 2003
We describe aspects of genetic diversity in several ethnic populations of the Caucasus Mountains of Daghestan using mitochondrial DNA sequences and a sample of 100 polymorphic Alu insertion loci. The mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences are like those of Europe.

Nematode population genetics

Journal of Helminthology, 1998
Population genetics seeks to understand the genetic relationships within and between populations of a species and the processes that generate these patterns. Little is known about the population genetics of parasitic nematodes. This is a notable gap in our knowledge since understanding the population genetic patterns and processes of parasitic ...

Populations and genetic polymorphisms*

Molecular Diagnosis, 1999
Population frequencies of many polymorphic genes of pharmacogenetic interest depend on race or ethnic specificity. Association of these genes with person-to-person differences in drug effectiveness (hypersensitivity or resistance) and drug toxicity may also depend on the racial or ethnic characteristics of a population.

POPULATION GENETICS OF RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1992
A major component of genetic susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) appears to be explained by inheritance of HLA-DRB1 alleles, which have a conserved sequence of amino acids in the third hyper-variable region of the molecule. This "shared epitope" is found on various DR4, DR1, and DR6 variants, as well as on DR10.
