Mapping Haplotype-haplotype Interactions with Adaptive LASSO [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2010

Minimum error correction-based haplotype assembly: considerations for long read data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is the most widely studied type of genetic variation. A haplotype is defined as the sequence of alleles at SNP sites on each haploid chromosome. Haplotype information is essential in unravelling the genome-phenotype association.

Haplotype Assembly: An Information Theoretic View [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
This paper studies the haplotype assembly problem from an information theoretic perspective. A haplotype is a sequence of nucleotide bases on a chromosome, often conveniently represented by a binary string, that differ from the bases in the corresponding positions on the other chromosome in a homologous pair.

Combining haplotypers [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
Statistically resolving the underlying haplotype pair for a genotype measurement is an important intermediate step in gene mapping studies, and has received much attention recently. Consequently, a variety of methods for this problem have been developed.

Genetic variants in the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene confer risk for extreme obesity and modulate adiposity in a Brazilian population [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2020
Obesity is a major public health problem worldwide. It has a complex etiology, influenced by environmental and genetic factors. FTO has been recognized as an important genetic factor for obesity development.

Genotyping of invasive Ponto-Caspian gobies in Croatia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Central European Agriculture, 2020
The biology and ecology of non-native freshwater Ponto-Caspian (P-C) gobies: monkey goby, Neogobius fluviatilis (Pallas, 1814), round goby, Neogobius melanostomus (Pallas, 1814) and bighead goby, Ponticola kessleri (Günther, 1861) have been studied in ...

Extinction and emergence of genomic haplotypes during the evolution of Avian coronavirus in chicken embryos [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2020
Avian coronavirus (AvCoV) is ubiquitously present on poultry as a multitude of virus lineages. Studies on AvCoV phenotypic traits are dependent on the isolation of field strains in chicken embryonated eggs, but the mutant spectrum on each isolate is not ...

High fraction of silent recombination in a finite population two-locus neutral birth-death-mutation model [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 106, 024409 (2022), 2021
A precise estimate of allele and haplotype polymorphism is of great interest in theoretical population genetics, but also has practical applications, such as bone marrow registries management. Allele polymorphism is driven mainly by point mutations, while haplotype polymorphism is also affected by recombination. Current estimates treat recombination as

Two co‐inherited novel SNPs in the MC4R gene related to live body weight and hormonal assays in Awassi and Arabi sheep breeds of Iraq

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Melanocortin‐4 receptor (MC4R) gene plays a key role in the regulation of body weight and energy homeostasis. This study aims to evaluate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the MC4R gene with live body weight and hormonal assays
