Meiotic drive of female-inherited supernumerary chromosomes in a pathogenic fungus
eLife, 2018 Meiosis is a key cellular process of sexual reproduction that includes pairing of homologous sequences. In many species however, meiosis can also involve the segregation of supernumerary chromosomes, which can lack a homolog.

A Least Squares Regression Model to Detect Quantitative Trait Loci with Polar Overdominance in a Cross of Outbred Breeds: Simulation [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2013 A least squares regression interval mapping model was derived to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) with a unique mode of genomic imprinting, polar overdominance (POD), under a breed cross design model in outbred mammals. Tests to differentiate POD QTL

Mendelian Inheritance Pattern and High Mutation Rates of Microsatellite Alleles in the Diatom Pseudo-nitzchia multistriata [PDF]
, 2012 The diatom Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata exhibits a diplontic life cycle composed of an extensive phase of vegetative cell division and a brief phase of sexual reproduction.

The next 10 years of behavioural genomic research
JCPP Advances, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022 Three transformative developments for behavioural genomic research in the next 10 years are described. First, behavioural genomic research will use dimensional measures to reveal the hierarchical genetic architecture of psychopathology. A second direction for behavioural genomic research will be to investigate causa models of GE interplay.

Mendelian and non-Mendelian inheritance of newly-arisen chromosome rearrangements [PDF]
Heredity, 1988 Seven centric shifts and three reciprocal interchanges, all newly-arisen in natural populations, have been tested for their inheritance in the dioecious flowering plant Rumex acetosa. In backcrosses between the heterozygote and standard plants transmissions ranged from 0.36 to 0.85 per gamete for the novel chromosome.

Interaction of Prions Causes Heritable Traits in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2016 The concept of "protein-based inheritance" defines prions as epigenetic determinants that cause several heritable traits in eukaryotic microorganisms, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Podospora anserina.

Perspectives on the Genomics of HSP Beyond Mendelian Inheritance
Frontiers in Neurology, 2018 Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia is an extraordinarily heterogeneous disease caused by over 50 Mendelian genes. Recent applications of next-generation sequencing, large scale data analysis, and data sharing/matchmaking, have discovered a quickly expanding ...

Heterogeneous earning responses to inheritance: new event-study evidence from Norway [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 It has long been assumed that inheritances, particularly large ones, have a negative effect on the labor supply of inheritors. Using Norwegian registry data, I examine the inheritance-induced decline in inheritors' wages and occupational income. In contrast to prior research, my estimates allow the dynamic effect of inheritances on labor supply to vary
