From qualitative to quantitative: the state of the art and challenges for plant synthetic biology

Quantitative Biology, 2023
The flourishing plant science promotes the exploding number of data and the expansion of toolkits. Plant synthetic biology is still in its early stages and requires more quantitative and predictable study. Despite the challenges, some pioneering examples

Sharing reference data and including cows in the reference population improve genomic predictions in Danish Jersey

Animal, 2016
Small reference populations limit the accuracy of genomic prediction in numerically small breeds, such like Danish Jersey. The objective of this study was to investigate two approaches to improve genomic prediction by increasing size of reference ...

Classification of Coffea canephora clones in botanical varieties by discriminant analysis of the k-nearest neighbors

Revista Ceres, 2021
A strategy for genetic improvement of coffee Coffea canephora plants is to aggregate through artificial crossings the characteristics of the Conilon botanical variety, such as shorter height and drought resistance, with the higher average grain size and ...

Functional mapping and annotation of genetic associations with FUMA

Nature Communications, 2017
A main challenge in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is to pinpoint possible causal variants. Results from GWAS typically do not directly translate into causal variants because the majority of hits are in non-coding or intergenic regions, and the ...

Bayesian Test for Colocalisation between Pairs of Genetic Association Studies Using Summary Statistics [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2013
Genetic association studies, in particular the genome-wide association study (GWAS) design, have provided a wealth of novel insights into the aetiology of a wide range of human diseases and traits, in particular cardiovascular diseases and lipid ...

Rational Use of Herbal Products in Pediatric Patients Treated With Anticancer Drugs in the European Union

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The use of herbal medical preparation (HMP) is rising among pediatric oncology patients, often to manage treatment‐related symptoms. Their effectiveness remains uncertain, and the risk of herb–drug interactions is underestimated.

Data-driven encoding for quantitative genetic trait prediction

BMC Bioinformatics, 2015
Given a set of biallelic molecular markers, such as SNPs, with genotype values on a collection of plant, animal or human samples, the goal of quantitative genetic trait prediction is to predict the quantitative trait values by simultaneously modeling all

Guidelines for Pediatric Radiotherapy Simulation: A Report From the Children's Oncology Group Radiation Oncology Discipline

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric radiation therapy presents unique challenges compared to adult treatments, including those of immobilization, potential need for sedation, and the critical importance of accurate, reproducible positioning. Additionally, heightened attention to imaging doses is necessary to minimize long‐term toxicity in survivors.
