Creation of a Computational Pipeline to Extract Genes from Quantitative Trait Loci for Diabetes and Obesity [PDF]
, 2015 Type 2 Diabetes is a disease of relative insulin deficiency resulting from a combination of insulin resistance and decreased beta-cell function. Over the past several years, over 60 genes have been identified for Type 2 Diabetes in human genome-wide ...

Elucidating R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus in Triticum aestivum genotypes
Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.This study investigates R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus (WDV) among different wheat genotypes. Following inoculation with Psammotettix alienus (leafhoppers) and the subsequent appearance of characteristic symptoms such as yellowing and dwarfing, phenotypic responses were evaluated alongside molecular analyses, including quantification ...

The Genetic Basis of Mutation Rate Variation in Yeast. [PDF]
, 2018 Mutations are the root source of genetic variation and underlie the process of evolution. Although the rates at which mutations occur vary considerably between species, little is known about differences within species, or the genetic and molecular basis ...

Psychometric and clinical validation of the fear of childbirth questionnaire in a UK population
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.The Fear of Childbirth Questionnaire is a psychometrically valid tool, which, alongside clinical conversation, can be used to identify fear of childbirth at levels commensurate with a clinical phobia. Abstract Introduction Severe fear of childbirth (FOC) during pregnancy holds significant implications for maternal mental health, decisions about mode of

Serious limitations of the QTL/Microarray approach for QTL gene discovery [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2010 Abstract Background It has been proposed that the use of gene expression microarrays in nonrecombinant parental or congenic strains can accelerate the process of isolating individual genes underlying quantitative trait loci (QTL). However, the effectiveness of this approach has not been assessed.

Identification and mapping of quantitative resistance to late blight (Phytophthora infestans) in Solanum habrochaites LA1777 [PDF]
, 2011 Late blight (Phytophthora infestans) can have devastating effects on tomato production over the whole world. Most of the commercial cultivars of tomato, Solanum lycopersicum, are susceptible.

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Despite decades of development in anti‐seizure medications, ~30% of individuals remain refractory to all treatments, and none of the existing therapies are disease modifying. Identifying targets outside the current preclinical paradigm is critically important.

Trends in Genetics, 1995 In the past 10 years, interest in applying the tools of molecular genetics to the problem of increasing world rice production has resulted in the generation of two highly saturated, molecular linkage maps of rice, and the localization of numerous genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs).

LPS resistance of SPRET/Ei mice is mediated by Gilz, encoded by the Tsc22d3 gene on the X chromosome [PDF]
, 2013 Natural variation for LPS-induced lethal inflammation in mice is useful for identifying new genes that regulate sepsis, which could form the basis for novel therapies for systemic inflammation in humans.
