Longevity defined as top 10% survivors and beyond is transmitted as a quantitative genetic trait. [PDF]
Survival to extreme ages clusters within families. However, identifying genetic loci conferring longevity and low morbidity in such longevous families is challenging.

Molecular and quantitative genetic variation within and between populations of the declining grassland species Saxifraga granulata [PDF]
Formerly common plant species are expected to be particularly susceptible to recent habitat fragmentation. We studied the population genetics of 19 recently fragmented Saxifraga granulata populations (max.

The Genetic Architecture of Quantitative Traits Cannot Be Inferred from Variance Component Analysis. [PDF]
Classical quantitative genetic analyses estimate additive and non-additive genetic and environmental components of variance from phenotypes of related individuals without knowing the identities of quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Many studies have found a

Genetic mapping of quantitative trait loci in crops
Dissecting the genetic architecture of complex traits is an ongoing challenge for geneticists. Two complementary approaches for genetic mapping, linkage mapping and association mapping have led to successful dissection of complex traits in many crop ...

Flor Yeasts Rewire the Central Carbon Metabolism During Wine Alcoholic Fermentation
The identification of natural allelic variations controlling quantitative traits could contribute to decipher metabolic adaptation mechanisms within different populations of the same species.

Epithelial ovarian cancer is classified into four major histological subtypes: serous, clear cell, endometrioid and mucinous. Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) responds poorly to conventional chemotherapies and shows poor prognosis.

Bayesian Sparse Factor Analysis of Genetic Covariance Matrices [PDF]
Quantitative genetic studies that model complex, multivariate phenotypes are important for both evolutionary prediction and artificial selection. For example, changes in gene expression can provide insight into developmental and physiological mechanisms ...
