Statistical Modeling of Epistasis and Linkage Decay using Logic Regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Logic regression has been recognized as a tool that can identify and model non-additive genetic interactions using Boolean logic groups. Logic regression, TASSEL-GLM and SAS-GLM were compared for analytical precision using a previously characterized ...

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Chromosome-level genome of Cyprinus rubrofuscus ♀ × Sinocyclocheilus grahami ♂ provides high-quality parental haplotype genomes and insights into hybrid economic traits enhancement

open access: yesBMC Genomics
Cyprinids, the largest and most economically significant family of teleosts, comprise over 600 polyploid species, whose genomic complexity presents challenges in deciphering the genetic basis of phenotypic diversity.

Transferring Face Recognition Techniques to Entomology: An ArcFace and ResNet Approach for Improving Dragonfly Classification

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Dragonfly classification is crucial for biodiversity conservation. Traditional taxonomic approaches require extensive training and experience, limiting their efficiency. Computer vision offers promising solutions for dragonfly taxonomy. In this study, we

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Object-translocation induces event coding in the rat hippocampus

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Episodic memory is the ability to recall personally experienced events that are situated within specific spatial contexts. Within a navigation environment, salient objects can function as landmarks, and interactions with them can be encoded as distinct ...

Speciation Through the Lens of Population Dynamics: A Theoretical Primer on How Small and Large Populations Diverge

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Population size and dynamics fundamentally shape speciation by influencing genetic drift, founder events, and adaptive potential. Small populations may speciate rapidly due to stronger drift, whereas large populations harbor more genetic diversity, which can alter divergence trajectories. We highlight theoretical models that incorporate population size

A high-quality genome assembly of the Spectacled Fulvetta (Fulvetta ruficapilla) endemic to China

open access: yesScientific Data
The Spectacled Fulvetta (Fulvetta ruficapilla) is the type species of Fulvetta, an evolutionarily distinct group whose species show a high degree of sympatry in distribution and phenotypic convergence.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

An Accurate Model for Genetic Hitchhiking [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2008
AbstractWe suggest a simple deterministic approximation for the growth of the favored-allele frequency during a selective sweep. Using this approximation we introduce an accurate model for genetic hitchhiking. Only when Ns < 10 (N is the population size and s denotes the selection coefficient) are discrepancies between our approximation and ...
