Frederick A Matsen; Using Genotype Abundance to Improve Phylogenetic
Inference, Molecular Biology and Evolution, msy020, 20 February 2018, 2017 Modern biological techniques enable very dense genetic sampling of unfolding evolutionary histories, and thus frequently sample some genotypes multiple times. This motivates strategies to incorporate genotype abundance information in phylogenetic inference.

Separation of the largest eigenvalues in eigenanalysis of genotype data from discrete subpopulations [PDF]
Theoretical Population Biology 89 (2013) 34-43, 2013 We present a mathematical model, and the corresponding mathematical analysis, that justifies and quantifies the use of principal component analysis of biallelic genetic marker data for a set of individuals to detect the number of subpopulations represented in the data. We indicate that the power of the technique relies more on the number of individuals

Validation of a Polymerase Chain Reaction technique for Kidd blood group genotyping [PDF]
, 2015 The Kidd blood group antigens, Jkª and Jkᵇ , are two of the main surface markers which are found on the membrane of red blood cells. The determination of whether a donor or a recipient has the Jkª and/or the Jkᵇ antigens is crucially important to ...

Application of high-resolution DNA melting for genotyping in lepidopteran non-model species: Ostrinia furnacalis (Crambidae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Development of an ideal marker system facilitates a better understanding of the genetic diversity in lepidopteran non-model organisms, which have abundant species, but relatively limited genomic resources.

SHIELD: Secure Haplotype Imputation Employing Local Differential Privacy [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We introduce Secure Haplotype Imputation Employing Local Differential privacy (SHIELD), a program for accurately estimating the genotype of target samples at markers that are not directly assayed by array-based genotyping platforms while preserving the privacy of donors to public reference panels.

Complexity-based speciation and genotype representation for neuroevolution [PDF]
2016 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC), Vancouver,
BC, 2016, pp. 3092-3101, 2020 This paper introduces a speciation principle for neuroevolution where evolving networks are grouped into species based on the number of hidden neurons, which is indicative of the complexity of the search space. This speciation principle is indivisibly coupled with a novel genotype representation which is characterised by zero genome redundancy, high ...
