The nk model and population genetics [PDF]

, 2005
The nk model of fitness interactions is examined. This model has been used by previous authors to investigate the effects of fitness epistasis on substitution dynamics in molecular evolution, and to make broader claims about the importance of epistasis ...

In silico characterization of coding and non-coding SNPs of the androgen receptor gene

Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2021
The Androgen Receptor (AR), an important ligand-dependent nuclear transcription factor, encoded by the AR gene, functions in regulating the cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis pathways. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of AR have

The Pennsylvania grotto sculpin: population genetics [PDF]

Subterranean Biology, 2021
The Pennsylvania grotto sculpin is known from just two caves of the Nippenose Valley in central Pennsylvania, USA. They exhibit emergent troglobitic morphological traits and are the second northern-most cave adapted fish in the world.

Variable number of tandem repeat markers in the genome sequence of Mycosphaerella fijiensis, the causal agent of black leaf streak disease of banana (Musa spp) [PDF]

, 2010
. We searched the genome of Mycosphaerella fijiensis for molecular markers that would allow population genetics analysis of this plant pathogen. M. fijiensis, the causal agent of banana leaf streak disease, also known as black Sigatoka, is the most ...

The wild tomato species Solanum chilense shows variation in pathogen resistance between geographically distinct populations [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Wild tomatoes are a valuable source of disease resistance germplasm for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) breeders. Many species are known to possess a certain degree of resistance against certain pathogens; however, evolution of resistance traits is yet ...

Reduction of a metapopulation genetic model to an effective one island model [PDF]

, 2018
We explore a model of metapopulation genetics which is based on a more ecologically motivated approach than is frequently used in population genetics. The size of the population is regulated by competition between individuals, rather than by artificially

Sampling related individuals within ponds biases estimates of population structure in a pond‐breeding amphibian

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Effective conservation and management of pond‐breeding amphibians depends on the accurate estimation of population structure, demographic parameters, and the influence of landscape features on breeding‐site connectivity.

Genetic selection strategies–population genetics

Poultry Science, 1997
This paper provides an overview of the association between population genetics and selection strategies in poultry. Relationships between artificial and natural selection and among causes contributing to limits to artificial selection are discussed.
