Genomics of growth traits in forest trees [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent 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.

Estimates of Genetic Parameters for Direct and Maternal Effects on Pre-Weaning Growth Traits in Turkish Saanen Kids

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Data on 4487 Turkish Saanen kids from 176 bucks and 1318 dam-goats, obtained from the Turkish Saanen goats in the Izmir region and collected between 2018 and 2019, were analyzed to examine the effect of genetic and non-genetic factors on growth traits ...

DIALLEL ANALYSIS OF GROWTH TRAITS IN MICE [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 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.

Effects of Genetic Variation of the Sorting Nexin 29 (SNX29) Gene on Growth Traits of Xiangdong Black Goat

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Previous studies have found that the copy number variation (CNV) and insertion/deletion (indels) located in the sorting nexin 29 (SNX29) gene, which is an important candidate gene related to meat production and quality, are associated with growth traits ...

Genetic parameters and principal components analysis of breeding value for birth and weaning weight in Egyptian buffalo [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Bioscience, 2021
Objective The objectives of the current study were to study the main environmental factors affecting birth weight (BW) and weaning weight (WW), estimate variance components, genetic parameters and genetic trend and to evaluate the variability and ...

Evolution of Microbial Growth Traits Under Serial Dilution [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 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]

open access: yesPlant 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).

From lab to field : yield stability and shade avoidance genes are massively differentially expressed in the field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
To unravel molecular mechanisms with the ultimate goal to achieve improved stress resilience or increased yield, plants are often studied under highly controlled conditions in which stresses are applied and in which growth‐ or architecture‐related traits
