Increasing power for voxel-wise genome-wide association studies : the random field theory, least square kernel machines and fast permutation procedures [PDF]
Imaging traits are thought to have more direct links to genetic variation than diagnostic measures based on cognitive or clinical assessments and provide a powerful substrate to examine the influence of genetics on human brains. Although imaging genetics

Background: SARS–CoV–2 virus has undergone several mutations on its genome, since the onset of the pandemic. Multiple variants of concern (VOC) have emerged including Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta with the more recent one being the Omicron (B.1.1.529 ...

Null alleles are alleles that are recessive to codominant markers without any effect on the phenotype. In SSR assays, there are several reasons for the lack of amplification at a locus: the primer does not bind well, longer fragments do not amplify due ...

lociNGS: a lightweight alternative for assessing suitability of next-generation loci for evolutionary analysis. [PDF]
Genomic enrichment methods and next-generation sequencing produce uneven coverage for the portions of the genome (the loci) they target; this information is essential for ascertaining the suitability of each locus for further analysis.

GENETIC CHANGE IN MUTATIONS AT THE T/t-LOCUS IN THE MOUSE [PDF]
ABSTRACT Recessive lethal or semilethal alleles at the T/t locus in the mouse generate new t-variants, with characteristics different from the parent allele at a rate of about 10-3. Almost invariably the variant chromosome carries marker genes derived from the opposite parental chromosome.

Mutation analysis of 21 autosomal short tandem repeats in Han population from Hunan, China
Background: Short tandem repeats (STRs) are powerful genetic markers widely used in human genetics. Population data and locus-specific mutation rates of STRs are crucial for the evaluation and interpretation of genetic evidence in forensic and population
