Association between the insulin-like growth factor 1 gene rs2195239 and rs2162679 polymorphisms and cancer risk: a meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2019
Background Many epidemiological studies have suggested that insulin-like growth factor1 (IGF1) gene single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may be associated with cancer risk.

A framework for gene mapping in wheat demonstrated using the Yr7 yellow rust resistance gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We used three approaches to map the yellow rust resistance gene Yr7 and identify associated SNPs in wheat. First, we used a traditional QTL mapping approach using a double haploid (DH) population and mapped Yr7 to a low-recombination region of chromosome

Homozygote Depression in Gamete-Derived Dragon-Fruit (Hylocereus) Lines

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Putative gamete-derived progenies from two Hylocereus species, the diploid H. monacanthus and the tetraploid H. megalanthus, were studied with the dual aims to confirm their gamete origin and to evaluate their potential use as genetic resources.

Resistance to autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease in an APOE3 Christchurch homozygote: a case report. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We identified a PSEN1 (presenilin 1) mutation carrier from the world's largest autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease kindred, who did not develop mild cognitive impairment until her seventies, three decades after the expected age of clinical onset.

The Effects of Different Sex-Linked Dwarf Variations on Chinese Native Chickens

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
Variants in chicken growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene lead to sex-linked dwarf (SLD) chickens, but effects of different variants are distinct. In this study, 11 SLD chicken breeds or strains including 3 Chinese native breeds and 8 breeding strains were ...

Under-dominance constrains the evolution of negative autoregulation in diploids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Regulatory networks have evolved to allow gene expression to rapidly track changes in the environment as well as to buffer perturbations and maintain cellular homeostasis in the absence of change.
