Chromosome-scale shotgun assembly using an in vitro method for long-range linkage [PDF]
Genome Research, 2015 Long-range and highly accurate de novo assembly from short-read data is one of the most pressing challenges in genomics. Recently, it has been shown that read pairs generated by proximity ligation of DNA in chromatin of living tissue can address this ...

Haplo2Ped: a tool using haplotypes as markers for linkage analysis
BMC Bioinformatics, 2011 Background Generally, SNPs are abundant in the genome; however, they display low power in linkage analysis because of their limited heterozygosity. Haplotype markers, on the other hand, which are composed of many SNPs, greatly increase heterozygosity and

An integrated genomic approach for the study of mandibular prognathism in the European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) [PDF]
, 2016 Skeletal anomalies in farmed fish are a relevant issue affecting animal welfare and health and causing significant economic losses. Here, a high-density genetic map of European seabass for QTL mapping of jaw deformity was constructed and a genome-wide ...

Methodology Used for “Software for Automated Linkage in Italy” (SALI)
Journal of Biomedical Informatics, 2001 Linkage of epidemiological registries can provide cost-effective information on the associations between different diseases or exposures in the population under study and on completeness of surveillance system databases. We describe the program SALI (software for automated linkage in Italy) aimed at matching individual records from medium-sized ...

Identification of quantitative trait loci controlling root and shoot traits associated with drought tolerance in a lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) recombinant inbred line population [PDF]
, 2016 Drought is one of the major abiotic stresses limiting lentil productivity in rainfed production systems. Specific rooting patterns can be associated with drought avoidance mechanisms that can be used in lentil breeding programs.
