Trait heritability in major transitions

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2018
Background Increases in biological complexity and the origins of life’s hierarchical organization are described by the “major transitions” framework.

Genetics of callous-unemotional behavior in children.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Callous-unemotional behavior (CU) is currently under consideration as a subtyping index for conduct disorder diagnosis. Twin studies routinely estimate the heritability of CU as greater than 50%. It is now possible to estimate genetic influence using DNA

Quantifying the heritability of belief formation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Individual differences in behaviour, traits and mental-health are partially heritable. Traditionally, studies have focused on quantifying the heritability of high-order characteristics, such as happiness or education attainment.

Heritability Estimated Using 50K SNPs Indicates Missing Heritability Problem in Holstein Breeding [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2015
Previous studies in Holstein have shown 35% to 51.8% heritability in milk production traits, such as milk yield, fat, and protein, using pedigree data.

Heritability of Attractiveness to Mosquitoes [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
Female mosquitoes display preferences for certain individuals over others, which is determined by differences in volatile chemicals produced by the human body and detected by mosquitoes. Body odour can be controlled genetically but the existence of a genetic basis for differential attraction to insects has never been formally demonstrated.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Heritability of plant height and head diameter in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) [PDF]

open access: yesRatarstvo i Povrtarstvo, 2013
Purpose of this study was to estimate heritability, in broad and narrow sense, for sunflower plant height and head diameter in order to evaluate success of selection of these traits. Fifteen sunflower populations were evaluated.

Heritable and non-heritable uncommon causes of stroke

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, 2020
Despite intensive investigations, about 30% of stroke cases remains of undetermined origin. After exclusion of common causes of stroke, there is a number of rare heritable and non-heritable conditions, which often remain misdiagnosed, that should be additionally considered in the diagnosis of cryptogenic stroke.

Epigenetic heterogeneity and plasticity in therapy‐induced tumor states through single‐cell multi‐omics

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single‐cell multi‐omics reveals epigenetic heterogeneity across therapy‐adaptive tumor states, including quiescent/dormant, drug‐tolerant persister, and EMT‐like phenotypes. By linking regulatory features with state‐associated biomarkers, these approaches inform biomarker‐guided therapeutic strategies for evolving tumors.

Heritability of apolipoprotein (a) traits in two-generational African-American and Caucasian families[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2019
Heritability of LPA allele, apo(a) isoform sizes, and isoform-associated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels was studied in 82 Caucasian and African-American families with two parents and two children (age: 6–74 years).
