Frontiers in Genetics, 2011 Epigenetic information can be passed on from one generation to another via DNA methylation, histone modifications and changes in small RNAs, a process called epigenetic memory.

Mutation and Chaos in Nonlinear Models of Heredity [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 In this short communication, we shall explore a nonlinear discrete dynamical system that naturally occurs in population systems to describe a transmission of a trait from parents to their offspring. We consider a Mendelian inheritance for a single gene with three alleles and assume that to form a new generation, each gene has a possibility to mutate ...

A Simplified Retriever to Improve Accuracy of Phenotype Normalizations by Large Language Models [PDF]
Frontiers in Digital Health 7, (2025): 1495040. Accessed March 4,
2025Large language models (LLMs) have shown improved accuracy in phenotype term normalization tasks when augmented with retrievers that suggest candidate normalizations based on term definitions. In this work, we introduce a simplified retriever that enhances LLM accuracy by searching the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) for candidate matches using ...

Knudson to embryo selection: A story of the genetics of retinoblastoma
Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018 Retinoblastoma, the most common primary intraocular malignancy of the young, is a prototype hereditary cancer. Due to its fairly predictable Mendelian inheritance, easily examinable tumors, and early age of presentation, RB has served as the most ...

Haplotype Inference for Pedigrees with Few Recombinations [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Pedigrees, or family trees, are graphs of family relationships that are used to study inheritance. A fundamental problem in computational biology is to find, for a pedigree with $n$ individuals genotyped at every site, a set of Mendelian-consistent haplotypes that have the minimum number of recombinations.

Modelling and control of Mendelian and maternal inheritance for biological control of dengue vectors [PDF]
ECC 2021 - European Control Conference, Jun 2021, Rotterdam /
Virtual, Netherlands, 2020 Mosquitoes are vectors of viral diseases with epidemic potential in many regions of the world, and in absence of vaccines or therapies, their control is the main alternative. Chemical control through insecticides has been one of the conventional strategies, but induces insecticide resistance, which may affect other insects and cause ecological damage ...

Inheritance of flower colour in Desmodium gangeticum (L.) DC. [PDF]
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014 The present experiment was conducted with the aim to study the inheritance pattern of flower colour in Desmodium gangeticum. Populations of two parental lines having two different flower colours, white (DDG 18) and pink (DDG 8) were used for study.

Genetic inference of orchid population dynamics on different‐aged lava flows in Costa Rica
Biotropica, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 95-105, January 2023., 2023 Volcán Arenal lava flows represent natural, non‐anthropogenic habitat disturbance that permit precise knowledge of when these sites became available for colonization. By examining the levels and spatial distribution of genetic variation of five Epidendrum radicans populations growing on lava flows deposited in 1968 and 1992, we were able to infer ...

The constitutional gain‐of‐function variant p.Glu1099Lys in NSD2 is associated with a novel syndrome
Clinical Genetics, Volume 103, Issue 2, Page 226-230, February 2023., 2023 The gain‐of‐function variant p.Glu1099Lys in NSD2 was described in hematologic malignancies while germline loss‐of‐function was associated with Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome and Rauch–Steindl syndrome. Now we associate this variant identified in the germinal of two individuals with a novel syndrome characterized by intellectual disability, coarse/ square ...
