Efficient pedigree recording for fast population genetics simulation

bioRxiv, 2018
In this paper we describe how to efficiently record the entire genetic history of a population in forwards-time, individual-based population genetics simulations with arbitrary breeding models, population structure and demography.

Population genetics in compressible flows

, 2011
We study competition between two biological species advected by a compressible velocity field. Individuals are treated as discrete Lagrangian particles that reproduce or die in a density-dependent fashion.

FinnGen provides genetic insights from a well-phenotyped isolated population

Nature, 2023
Genome-wide association studies of individuals from an isolated population (data from the Finnish biobank study FinnGen) and consequent meta-analyses facilitate the identification of previously unknown coding variant associations for both rare and common

Exploring the effects of ecological parameters on the spatial structure of genetic tree sequences

Peer Community Journal
Geographic space is a fundamental dimension of evolutionary change, determining how individuals disperse and interact with each other. Consequently, space has an important influence on the structure of genealogies and the distribution of genetic variants

Epistatic regulation of growth in Atlantic salmon revealed: a QTL study performed on the domesticated-wild interface

BMC Genetics, 2020
Background Quantitative traits are typically considered to be under additive genetic control. Although there are indications that non-additive factors have the potential to contribute to trait variation, experimental demonstration remains scarce.

Who Replaces Whom? Local versus Non-local Replacement in Social and Evolutionary Dynamics [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper, we inspect well-known population genetics and social dynamics models. In these models, interacting individuals, while participating in a self-organizing process, give rise to the emergence of complex behaviors and patterns.

Coalescence 2.0: a multiple branching of recent theoretical developments and their applications [PDF]

, 2014
Population genetics theory has laid the foundations for genomics analyses including the recent burst in genome scans for selection and statistical inference of past demographic events in many prokaryote, animal and plant species.

Little evidence of inbreeding depression for birth mass, survival and growth in Antarctic fur seal pups

Scientific Reports
Inbreeding depression, the loss of offspring fitness due to consanguineous mating, is generally detrimental for individual performance and population viability.

DELP Treatment on Vision and Retinal Microcirculation in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke: Report of Five Cases and Literature Review

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The delipid extracorporeal lipoprotein filter from plasma (DELP) treatment can effectively reduce blood lipid, increase blood flow, and improve neurological deficits in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, its effect on vision and retinal microcirculation in stroke patients has never been reported.
