The wild tomato species Solanum chilense shows variation in pathogen resistance between geographically distinct populations [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Wild tomatoes are a valuable source of disease resistance germplasm for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) breeders. Many species are known to possess a certain degree of resistance against certain pathogens; however, evolution of resistance traits is yet ...

Mantel test in population genetics
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2013 The comparison of genetic divergence or genetic distances, estimated by pairwise F ST and related statistics, with geographical distances by Mantel test is one of the most popular approaches to evaluate spatial processes driving population structure ...

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

Population Genetics and Pharmacogenetics [PDF]
, 2005 The highlight for 2005/6 in population genetics was undoubtedly the publication of HapMap, a freely available public resource nearly of all common (>5% minor allele frequency) genetic differences in humans. Compared to the estimated 10 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) that we all share, at the launch of HapMap in 2002 there were fewer than

Population genetics of forest trees.
Silva Fennica, 1982 The publication comprises proceedings of a conference held in Helsinki in 1981. Forest tree populations are investigated for population genetic structure, mating systems, mechanisms of genetic adaptation and ecological adaptation.

Inherited basis of visceral, abdominal subcutaneous and gluteofemoral fat depots
Nature Communications, 2022 The inherited basis of body fat distribution is not fully understood. Here, the authors use genetic data and MRI-derived measures of local adiposity to highlight fat depot-specific genetic architecture with implications for cardiometabolic health.

Genetic and environmental risk factors of asthma: a narrative review
Frontiers in ImmunologyAsthma is a heterogeneous and polygenic disease, with numerous genes involved in immune regulation and respiratory epithelial function. However, currently identified genetic variants explain only part of asthma heritability.

Neutral genomic signatures of host-parasite coevolution
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Background Coevolution is a selective process of reciprocal adaptation in hosts and parasites or in mutualistic symbionts. Classic population genetics theory predicts the signatures of selection at the interacting loci of both species, but not the ...
