Improved resolution in the position of drought-related QTLs in a single mapping population of rice by meta-analysis

BMC Genomics, 2009
Background Meta-analysis of QTLs combines the results of several QTL detection studies and provides narrow confidence intervals for meta-QTLs, permitting easier positional candidate gene identification.

GWAS and genomic prediction of milk urea nitrogen in Australian and New Zealand dairy cattle

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2022
Background Urinary nitrogen leakage is an environmental concern in dairy cattle. Selection for reduced urinary nitrogen leakage may be done using indicator traits such as milk urea nitrogen (MUN). The result of a previous study indicated that the genetic

Meta-Analyses of Splicing and Expression Quantitative Trait Loci Identified Susceptibility Genes of Glioma

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
BackgroundThe functions of most glioma risk alleles are unknown. Very few studies had evaluated expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL), and insights of susceptibility genes were limited due to scarcity of available brain tissues.

Genetic and Population Analyses Implicate Thyroid‐Related Regulation of RNF144B in Chondrocalcinosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Chondrocalcinosis, characterized by calcium crystal deposition within articular cartilage, affects 5% to 15% of the general population and has recently been identified as an osteoarthritis risk factor. However, its biologic pathways remain unclear.

Meta-assembly of genomic associations to identify cattle fat depot candidate genes and pleiotropic effects

BMC Genomics
Background Fat traits in cattle are considered important due to their contribution to beef eating quality and carcass economic value. Discovering the genes controlling fat traits in cattle will enable better selection of these traits, but identifying ...

Cross‐Cohort Evidence Links KCNJ6 rs702859 to Impulsive–Compulsive Phenotypes in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Impulse control disorders (ICDs) and related compulsive behaviors (CBs) are frequent non‐motor complications of Parkinson's disease (PD) with a probable genetic contribution. Objective To investigate whether genetic variants involved in reward and punishment processing are associated with impulsive–compulsive phenotypes in PD ...

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

Microbial Partnerships for Sustainable Soybean Cultivation: Mechanisms, Applications and Prospects

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean production is increasingly threatened by fluctuating environmental conditions and nutrient limitations. While synthetic fertilisers can alleviate these constraints, their excessive use has raised concerns regarding long‐term soil health. Consequently, leveraging beneficial soil microbes, a diverse group of microorganisms that reside in
