The population genetics of evolutionary rescue. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Evolutionary rescue occurs when a population that is threatened with extinction by an environmental change adapts to the change sufficiently rapidly to survive. Here we extend the mathematical theory of evolutionary rescue.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilms tumour (WT) has excellent event‐free and overall survival (OS). However, small differences exist between countries participating in the same international study. This led us to examine variation in adherence to protocol recommendations as a potential contributing factor.

The evolutionary history of LysM-RLKs (LYKs/LYRs) in wild tomatoes
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Background The LysM receptor-like kinases (LysM-RLKs) are important to both plant defense and symbiosis. Previous studies described three clades of LysM-RLKs: LysM-I/LYKs (10+ exons per gene and containing conserved kinase residues), LysM-II/LYRs (1–5 ...

Population genetic characteristics of Hainan medaka with whole-genome resequencing
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 The DMY gene is deleted in all males of the Sanya population (SY-medaka) of the Hainan medaka, Oryzias curvinotus, as recently reported by us. However, due to limited knowledge regarding their population genetic background, it is difficult to explore the

Can one hear the shape of a population history?
, 2014 Reconstructing past population size from present day genetic data is a major goal of population genetics. Recent empirical studies infer population size history using coalescent-based models applied to a small number of individuals. Here we provide tight

Examining the efficacy of a genotyping-by-sequencing technique for population genetic analysis of the mushroom Laccaria bicolor and evaluating whether a reference genome is necessary to assess homology [PDF]
, 2016 Given the diversity and ecological importance of Fungi, there is a lack of population genetic research on these organisms. The reason for this can be explained in part by their cryptic nature and difficulty in identifying genets.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic yield and utility of universal paired tumor–normal multigene panel sequencing in newly diagnosed pediatric solid and central nervous system (CNS) tumor patients and to compare the detection of germline pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants (PV/LPVs) against established clinical referral criteria for cancer ...

Population genetics and GWAS: A primer. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2018 This primer provides some background to help non-specialists understand a new theoretical evolutionary genetics study that helps explain why thousands of variants of small effect contribute to complex traits.

Landscape genetics and gene flow in the banana pathogenic fungus Mycosphaerella fijiensis [PDF]
, 2007 Among the different evolutionary forces driving population genetics, gene flow related to dispersal plays a major role in local adaptation processes. However very few studies on plant pathogenic fungi focussed on deciphering gene flow patterns at the ...
