Variability and heritability of some onion (Allium cepa L.) characteristics of parental forms, F1 hybrids and F2 generation

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2013
The object of the studies in 1977 was a population of 15 F1 hybrids, 11 F2 progenies and 16 parental forms (8 male-sterile A lines and 8 inbred C lines - Table 2).

Developing a strain‐dependent susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma in a murine model based on histopathological evidence and genetic context

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using F1 (C57BL/6J/Smad4+/− X CC) mice, we found that partial loss of Smad4 promotes liver carcinogenesis in a strain‐dependent manner, highlighting the importance of genetic modifiers in tumor susceptibility. The use of Collaborative Cross mice provides a valuable platform for uncovering genotype‐specific cancer susceptibilities in preclinical ...

Heritability estimates compared to population heritability.

open access: yes, 2017
Heritability estimates and population heritability as a function of λ: the mean effect size of a new deleterious mutation. Additive (A; orange) component of true heritability is calculated by multiplying the end point(q = 1) of the variance curves in Fig

Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

Genetic variances, heritabilities and maternal effects on body weight, breast meat yield, meat quality traits and the shape of the growth curve in turkey birds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Turkey is an important agricultural species and is largely used as a meat bird. In 2004, turkey represented 6.5% of the world poultry meat production. The world-wide turkey population has rapidly grown due to increased commercial farming.

Association Between Genetic Ancestry and Multiple Sclerosis Severity

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to determine whether genetic ancestry is associated with differences in the clinical course of multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods Participants with MS living in the United Kingdom >18 years old were recruited from 2021 to 2025 and genotyped from saliva using a commercial array. Genetic ancestry was inferred using

Heritability estimates of first lactation 300-day milk yield under single versus multi-trait animal models in Phule Triveni cattle

open access: yesIndian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2016
First lactation records of 493 Phule Triveni cows sired by 55 bulls on production traits, viz. first lactation 300- day or less milk yield (FL300DMY), first lactation length (FLL), first dry period (FDP) and reproduction traits like age at first calving

PbAT: A user‐friendly R/Shiny platform for data‐driven decision support in crop improvement

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Modern plant breeding requires robust analysis of complex, multi‐environment datasets to identify superior genotypes. Although R offers powerful statistical packages, their use often requires programming expertise. Existing graphical user interface (GUI)‐based tools are either limited in scope or not openly accessible, leaving breeders

Rethinking brachycephaly: Anatomical implications and health considerations in lagomorphs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Brachycephaly in domestic rabbits is increasingly perceived by welfare organizations as associated with significant health complications, particularly oral pathologies. Despite this perception, comparative anatomical research into rabbit brachycephaly is limited compared to that of dogs and cats, compelling an in‐depth examination of its ...
