Management and incipient domestication of Chamaedorea tepejilote in agroforestry systems in Mexico
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Native wild plants are key elements in addressing global biodiversity loss and supporting sustainable food systems. We investigated how rural communities in Mexico manage Chamaedorea tepejilote, a wild palm with edible male inflorescences, by combining ethnobotanical, genetic, morphological and ecological approaches.

Consanguinity marriage and fertility outcome health in the middle Euphrates of Iraq
مجلة علوم ذي قار, 2019 The inbreeding coefficient refers to the degree of advancing of any society. In 2006 an experiment was conducted to find the inbreeding coefficient in the middle Euphrates area of Iraq (Al-Qadisiyia and Babylon) and to study the relationship between ...

The Inbreeding Coefficient of Kiso Horses [PDF]
, 1984 In our previous paper (1984) we reported that population size of Kiso Horses had recently decreased. This indicated that intense inbreeding had taken place within the population.

Genomic architecture and breeding trade‐offs of coconut drought tolerance
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.The coconut palm is an extremely popular and economically important crop, with around 65 million tonnes produced in 2023. Although Africa's coconut sector is growing rapidly, it—and the livelihoods that depend on it—is threatened by climate change, particularly increased drought.

Inbreeding coefficients and coalescence times
Genetics Research, 1991 SummaryThis paper describes the relationship between probabilities of identity by descent and the distribution of coalescence times. By using the relationship between coalescence times and identity probabilities, it is possible to extend existing results for inbreeding coefficients in regular systems of mating to find the distribution of coalescence ...

Facial attractiveness is only weakly linked to genome–wide heterozygosity
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 IntroductionIt has been frequently suggested that overall genomic heterozygosity and, particularly, heterozygosity of loci on the so-called major histocompatibility complex (MHC), which is responsible for the recognition of foreign substances/ pathogens ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Biodiversity is being lost rapidly worldwide due to factors such as climate change and habitat loss. To help safeguard plant populations, conservation strategies include seed banks and conservation cultures. However, it remains unclear how cultivation affects genetic variation compared with wild populations.
