Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Combination of trio-based whole exome sequencing and optical genome mapping reveals a cryptic balanced translocation that causes unbalanced chromosomal rearrangements in a family with multiple anomalies

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Background: Balanced translocation (BT) carriers can produce imbalanced gametes and experience recurrent spontaneous abortions (RSAs) and even give birth to a child with complex chromosomal disorders. Here, we report a cryptic BT, t(5; 6) (p15.31; p25.1),

Optical Genome Mapping Reveals Frequent Cryptic Structural Aberrations in Normal Karyotype Acute Myeloid Leukemia

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Acute myeloid leukemia adult cases often appear cytogenetically normal when analyzed with conventional karyotyping. However, acquired structural variants may escape routine detection. Here, optical genome mapping detected diverse genomic alterations in nearly half of the analyzed cytogenetically normal cases.

Optical mapping reveals a higher level of large‐scale structural variants in a family with paternally transmitted myotonic dystrophy and independent Parkinson's disease

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a clinically challenging multisystem neuromuscular hereditary disorder, with generational increase in severity and earlier age at onset. It is caused by an unstable cytosine‐thymine‐guanine repeat expansion at the DMPK locus, accompanied by associated genetic and epigenetic modifications.

Structural Variation Sequencing of 26 Amniotic Fluid Samples With Partial Gene Duplications and Postnatal Follow‐Up of the Fetuses

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Partial gene duplications (PGDups) are a significant contributor to genetic disease. The precise genomic location and structure of PGDups are often unresolved using conventional methods, so prenatal diagnosis for PGDups is challenging, especially without ultrasound abnormalities.
