Allele interaction--single locus genetics meets regulatory biology. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Since the dawn of genetics, additive and dominant gene action in diploids have been defined by comparison of heterozygote and homozygote phenotypes.

Genetics of the Rh-Hr Locus in Humans [PDF]
An analysis is attempted to throw more light on the inheritance of rhesus factor in humans and the Fisher-Race and Wiener's concepts are respectively evaluated.It is claimed that the Rh-Hr locus is not comprised of the recombination of C, D, E, c and e genes, much less the help of the auxiliary (d) which merely appears to be a conventional approach ...

Genetics of the relB locus in Escherichia coli [PDF]
A mutant of Escherichia coli with a delayed relaxed phenotype very similar to that of a previously described relB mutant has been obtained using a new selection procedure. The mutation giving rise to this phenotype has been shown to map at 34.5 min and to be 12% cotransducible with man. It is recessive, revertible, and most likely an allele of the relB

A genetic locus for paranoia [PDF]
The psychological effects of brain-expressed imprinted genes in humans are virtually unknown. Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS) is a neurogenetic condition mediated by genomic imprinting, which involves high rates of psychosis characterized by hallucinations and paranoia, as well as autism.

Lack of variation at phosphoglucose isomerase (pgi) in bumblebees: implications for conservation genetics studies. [PDF]
Assessing genetic variation underlying ecologically important traits is increasingly of interest and importance in population and conservation genetics. For some groups generally useful markers exist for examining the relative role of selection and drift

Genetic Elements at the Alpha-Synuclein Locus
Genome-wide association studies have consistently shown that the alpha-synuclein locus is significantly associated with Parkinson’s disease. The mechanism by which this locus modulates the disease pathology and etiology remains largely under-investigated.

Genetic variability at the PARK16 locus [PDF]
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disease which is clinically heterogeneous and pathologically consists of loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and intracytoplasmic neuronal inclusions containing alpha-synuclein aggregations known as Lewy bodies.

Genetic Imprinting: Conflict at the Callipyge Locus [PDF]
The imprinted Dlk1-Gtl2 region of the mammalian genome - which in sheep encompasses the Callipyge locus, known for its unusual mode of inheritance - encodes a number of maternally expressed miRNAs. Five of these miRNAs, hosted by the antisense transcript antiPeg11, have now been shown to target degradation of the paternally expressed Peg11 mRNA by an ...

The Gene Encoding Dihydroflavonol 4-Reductase Is a Candidate for the anthocyaninless Locus of Rapid Cycling Brassica rapa (Fast Plants Type). [PDF]
Rapid cycling Brassica rapa, also known as Wisconsin Fast Plants, are a widely used organism in both K-12 and college science education. They are an excellent system for genetics laboratory instruction because it is very easy to conduct genetic crosses ...

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many common variant loci associated with asthma susceptibility, but few studies investigate the genetics underlying moderate-to-severe asthma risk.
