Prediction of Hereditary Cancers Using Neural Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Family history is a major risk factor for many types of cancer. Mendelian risk prediction models translate family histories into cancer risk predictions based on knowledge of cancer susceptibility genes. These models are widely used in clinical practice to help identify high-risk individuals.

Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics, 2019 Introduction: Genetics has been suggested as an explanation for the etiology of malocclusions, although some questions, due to the perception that genetic inheritance is tied to a monogenic or Mendelian form of inheritance.

The infinitesimal model with dominance [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The classical infinitesimal model is a simple and robust model for the inheritance of quantitative traits. In this model, a quantitative trait is expressed as the sum of a genetic and a non-genetic (environmental) component and the genetic component of offspring traits within a family follows a normal distribution around the average of the parents ...

Classification of asexual diploid organisms by means of strongly isotopic evolution algebras defined over any field [PDF]
Journal of Algebra 472 (2017), 573-593, 2016 Evolution algebras were introduced into Genetics to deal with the mechanism of inheritance of asexual organisms. Their distribution into isotopism classes is uniquely related with the mutation of alleles in non-Mendelian Genetics. This paper deals with such a distribution by means of Computational Algebraic Geometry.

The Extended (Evolutionary) Synthesis Debate: Where Science Meets Philosophy [PDF]
, 2014 Recent debates between proponents of the modern evolutionary synthesis (the standard model in evolutionary biology) and those of a possible extended synthesis are a good example of the fascinating tangle among empirical, theoretical, and conceptual or ...

Environmental Factors Can Influence Mitochondrial Inheritance in the Saccharomyces Yeast Hybrids. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Mitochondria play a critical role in the generation of metabolic energy and are crucial for eukaryotic cell survival and proliferation. In most sexual eukaryotes, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is inherited from only one parent in non-Mendelian inheritance in

Statistical Analysis in Genetic Studies of Mental Illnesses [PDF]
Statistical Science 2011, Vol. 26, No. 1, 116-129, 2011 Identifying the risk factors for mental illnesses is of significant public health importance. Diagnosis, stigma associated with mental illnesses, comorbidity, and complex etiologies, among others, make it very challenging to study mental disorders. Genetic studies of mental illnesses date back at least a century ago, beginning with descriptive studies ...
