Circulating tumor cells in metastatic breast cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors – a biomarker analysis of the ALICE and ICON trials

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative biomarker analysis, we assessed serial sampling of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) with CellSearch in two randomized trials testing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in metastatic breast cancer. Our data demonstrate a prognostic potential of CTCs, most apparent 4 weeks into ICI therapy.

Controlling the Overfitting of Heritability in Genomic Selection through Cross Validation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In genomic selection (GS), all the markers across the entire genome are used to conduct marker-assisted selection such that each quantitative trait locus of complex trait is in linkage disequilibrium with at least one marker.

Accuracy of genomic selection for grain yield and agronomic traits in soft red winter wheat

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2019
Genomic selection has the potential to increase genetic gains by using molecular markers as predictors of breeding values of individuals. This study evaluated the accuracy of predictions for grain yield, heading date, plant height, and yield components ...

Ecological patterns of genome size variation and the origin of species in salamanders [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Salamanders (urodela) have among the largest vertebrate genomes, ranging in size from 10 to over 80 pg. The urodela are divided into ten extant families each with a characteristic range in genome size. Although changes in genome size often occur randomly and in the absence of selection pressure, non-random patterns of genome size variation are evident ...

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.

Reliability of genomic evaluation for egg quality traits in layers

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2020
Background Genomic evaluation, based on the use of thousands of genetic markers in addition to pedigree and phenotype information, has become the standard evaluation methodology in dairy cattle breeding programmes over the past several years. Despite the

Accuracy of genomic selection in a rice synthetic population developed for recurrent selection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Genomic selection is a promising breeding strategy for rapid improvement of complex traits. We investigated the accuracy of genomic estimate breeding values (GEBV) through cross validation in a synthetic population (SP) of broad genetic diversity ...

MPAgenomics : An R package for multi-patients analysis of genomic markers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
MPAgenomics, standing for multi-patients analysis (MPA) of genomic markers, is an R-package devoted to: (i) efficient segmentation, and (ii) genomic marker selection from multi-patient copy number and SNP data profiles. It provides wrappers from commonly

Early Selection Enabled by the Implementation of Genomic Selection in Coffea arabica Breeding

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Genomic Selection (GS) has allowed the maximization of genetic gains per unit time in several annual and perennial plant species. However, no GS studies have addressed Coffea arabica, the most economically important species of the genus Coffea. Therefore,

Genomic selection in livestock populations

open access: yesGenetics Research, 2010
SummaryMost traits of economic importance in livestock are either quantitative or complex. Despite considerable efforts, there has been only limited success in identifying the polymorphisms that cause variation in these traits. Nevertheless, selection based on estimated breeding values (BVs), calculated from data on phenotypic performance and pedigree ...
