The Genetic Determinism of Biochemical Systems Polymorphous From the Blood Serum in Pigs
The study of genetic markers and identification of new markers make the subject of an increasing number of research projects in various fields such as genetics of immunology, biochemical genetics, molecular genetics, quantitative genetics and the genetic

Molecular genetics is on the guard of the law
Molecular genetics is one of the key tools of modern medicine. With its help, scientists can study the structure and function of DNA, decode genetic codes, and develop new treatments.

Multi-ancestry study of blood lipid levels identifies four loci interacting with physical activity. [PDF]
Many genetic loci affect circulating lipid levels, but it remains unknown whether lifestyle factors, such as physical activity, modify these genetic effects.

Genetic determinants of cortical structure (thickness, surface area and volumes) among disease free adults in the CHARGE Consortium [PDF]
Cortical thickness, surface area and volumes (MRI cortical measures) vary with age and cognitive function, and in neurological and psychiatric diseases.

Robust forward simulations of recurrent hitchhiking [PDF]
Evolutionary forces shape patterns of genetic diversity within populations and contribute to phenotypic variation. In particular, recurrent positive selection has attracted significant interest in both theoretical and empirical studies.

Insulin gene polymorphisms in type I diabetes, Addison's disease and the polyglandular autoimmune syndrome type II [PDF]
Background: Polymorphisms within the insulin gene can influence insulin expression in the pancreas and especially in the thymus, where self-antigens are processed, shaping the T cell repertoire into selftolerance, a process that protects from ß-cell ...

Population structure causes genome-wide linkage disequilibrium between unlinked loci, leading to statistical confounding in genome-wide association studies.

The Modern Evolutionary Synthesis relegated the ontogenetic development to a “black box”. In this article, we argue that the absence of ontogenetic development in the Evolutionary Synthesis was due its strong foundation in transmission genetics.

Human Genetics and the Causal Role of Lipoprotein(a) for Various Diseases
Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a highly atherogenic lipoprotein that is under strong genetic control by the LPA gene locus. Genetic variants including a highly polymorphic copy number variation of the so called kringle IV repeats at this locus have a ...

Complex Genetic Interactions in a Quantitative Trait Locus
Whether in natural populations or between two unrelated members of a species, most phenotypic variation is quantitative. To analyze such quantitative traits, one must first map the underlying quantitative trait loci. Next, and far more difficult, one must identify the quantitative trait genes (QTGs), characterize QTG interactions, and identify the ...
