Inbreeding, inbreeding depression, and infidelity in a cooperatively breeding bird.
Evolution; international journal of organic evolution, 2018 Inbreeding depression plays a major role in shaping mating systems: in particular, inbreeding avoidance is often proposed as a mechanism explaining extra-pair reproduction in socially monogamous species. This suggestion relies on assumptions that are rarely comprehensively tested: that inbreeding depression is present, that higher kinship between ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A multi‐omics framework combining multitissue genome‐wide association studies, metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and functional validation uncovers the genetic basis of specialized metabolism in quinoa. The study identifies hundreds of metabolite‐associated loci, prioritizes candidate genes for saponin, betalain, and flavonoid biosynthesis ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A three‐tier livestock multi‐omics framework resolves four typical analytical pitfalls. Moving from statistical association through machine learning preprocessing to triple‐modal causal inference, it converts omics results into genomic selection and gene editing strategies to achieve One Health, underpinned by multi‐omics data, multimodal sequencing ...

Evaluation of Optimum Genetic Contribution Theory to Control Inbreeding While Maximizing Genetic Response [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2012 Inbreeding is the mating of relatives that produce progeny having more homozygous alleles than non-inbred animals. Inbreeding increases numbers of recessive alleles, which is often associated with decreased performance known as inbreeding depression. The

Genomics is modifying our concepts of evolution in homosporous and heterosporous vascular plants
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Across the tree of life, and particularly within land plants, there is a wide diversity and disparity of genome structure. The most well‐studied are angiosperms, comprising mostly small and dynamic genomes, with a history of ancient whole genome duplications.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The optimal timing of reproduction depends on the relative risk and benefit of continued growth. These risks and benefits depend on the local environment, which varies seasonally. While temperature and water availability are well‐studied selective agents on reproductive timing, less is known about other seasonally variable factors ...

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) function in the innate immune defense of the sinonasal mucosa; however, the genetic association between the TAS2R gene family and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remains understudied in Asian populations.

Genetic inbreeding load and its individual prediction for milk yield in French dairy sheep
Genetics Selection EvolutionBackground The magnitude of inbreeding depression depends on the recessive burden of the individual, which can be traced back to the hidden (recessive) inbreeding load among ancestors.
