Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Determining Vegetative Growth Traits in Coffea Canephor [PDF]
Pelita Perkebunan (a Coffee and Cocoa Research Journal), 2011 Recently the use of molecular markers has been successfully applied for some crops. For coffee, new opportunities have been opened since Nestlé R&D Centre in collaboration with ICCRI completed the first genetic map of Coffea canephora. This study was

Fetal brain growth and infant autistic traits [PDF]
Molecular Autism, 2021 Abstract Background Structural differences exist in the brains of autistic individuals. To date only a few studies have explored the relationship between fetal brain growth and later infant autistic traits, and some have used fetal head circumference (HC) as a proxy for brain development. These

Genetics of early growth traits [PDF]
Human Molecular Genetics, 2020 AbstractIn recent years, genome-wide association studies have shed light on the genetics of early growth and its links with later-life health outcomes. Large-scale datasets and meta-analyses, combined with recently developed analytical methods, have enabled dissection of the maternal and fetal genetic contributions to variation in birth weight ...

Quantitative Trait Loci for Murine Growth [PDF]
Genetics, 1996 Abstract Body size is an archetypal quantitative trait with variation due to the segregation of many gene loci, each of relatively minor effect, and the environment. We examine the effects of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) on age-specific body weights and growth in the F2 intercross of the LG/J and SM/J strains of inbred mice.

Trait‐based approach to bacterial growth efficiency [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology, 2018 Summary Bacterial growth efficiency (BGE) is the proportion of assimilated carbon that is converted into biomass and reflects the balance between growth and energetic demands. Often measured as an aggregate property of the community, BGE is highly variable within and across ecosystems. To understand this variation, we first identified

Single-trait bayesian analysis of some growth traits in japanese quail [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ciência Avícola, 2014 The aim of this study was to estimate the heritability for some growth traits of Japanese quail through the estimation of variance components by Bayesian methodology. For this purpose, 340 progenies of 34 sires were used. Live weight (LW42) and absolute and relative growth rates at 42 days of age (AGR42 and RGR42, respectively) were submitted to single-

Genomics of growth traits in forest trees [PDF]
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2009 Growth traits in trees are fundamental components of adaptation in a forest ecosystem and of productivity in planted forests. A number of processes determine tree growth, which are controlled by genetic and epigenetic factors that respond dynamically to environmental signals throughout centuries.

DIALLEL ANALYSIS OF GROWTH TRAITS IN MICE [PDF]
Genetics, 1975 ABSTRACT Two replications of a complete diallel cross experiment were performed among four partially inbred lines of mice. These inbred lines originated from a random-bred ICR strain and were produced by 12 generations of full sibbing (F ≃ 92%). Individual body weight was recorded for each animal at 12, 21, 42 and 56 days of age.

Evolution of Microbial Growth Traits Under Serial Dilution [PDF]
Genetics, 2019 Abstract Selection of mutants in a microbial population depends on multiple cellular traits. In serial-dilution evolution experiments, three key traits are the lag time when transitioning from starvation to growth, the exponential growth rate, and the yield (number of cells per unit resource).

Hypocotyl Directional Growth in Arabidopsis: A Complex Trait [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2012 Abstract The growth direction of the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) etiolated-seedling hypocotyl is a complex trait that is controlled by extrinsic signals such as gravity and touch as well as intrinsic signals such as hormones (brassinosteroid [BR], auxin, cytokinin, ethylene) and nutrient status (glucose [Glc], sucrose).
