Global Distribution and Prevalence of Hepatitis C Virus Genotypes
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) exhibits high genetic diversity, characterized by regional variations in genotype prevalence. This poses a challenge to the improved development of vaccines and pan‐genotypic treatments, which require the consideration of global ...

Priors for Genotyping Polyploids [PDF]
AbstractMotivationEmpirical Bayes techniques to genotype polyploid organisms usually either (i) assume technical artifacts are knowna priorior (ii) estimate technical artifacts simultaneously with the prior genotype distribution. Case (i) is unappealing as it places the onus on the researcher to estimate these artifacts, or to ensure that there are no ...

Honey bee genotypes and the environment [PDF]
Although knowledge about honey bee geographic and genetic diversity has increased tremendously in recent decades (Meixner et al., 2013), the adaptation of honey bees to their local environment has not been well studied.

Genotyping—From Genomic DNA to Genotype in a Single Tube [PDF]
AbstractNucleotide variations in the human genome, such as single‐nucleotide polymorphisms, have been researched more intensively since it became apparent that these deviations are linked to various diseases and also several side effects of drugs. The investigation of genomic DNA in the laboratory requires routine methods that are time‐, labour‐, and ...

Stomatal behavior of cowpea genotypes grown under varying moisture levels [PDF]
Drought is a major limitation to crop productivity worldwide. Plants lose most of their water through stomata, thus making stomata an important organ in the control of transpiration and photosynthesis.
