Weighting sequence variants based on their annotation increases the power of genome-wide association studies in dairy cattle

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2019
Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are widely used to identify regions of the genome that harbor genetic determinants of quantitative traits.

Comparison of 16S rRNA sequencing and shotgun metagenome sequencing for estimating genotypic and phenotypic parameters of enteric methane emission in dairy cattle

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: Methane emissions from ruminants significantly contribute to GHG, making it crucial for sustainable livestock breeding to understand how both genetic and microbial factors influence methane production.

Estimation of variance components and prediction of breeding values based on group records from varying group sizes

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2018
Background Records on groups of individuals rather than on single individuals could be valuable for predicting breeding values (BV) of the traits that are difficult or costly to measure individually, such as feed intake in pigs or beef cattle.

Benefits of testing in both bio-secure and production environments in genomic selection breeding programs for commercial broiler chicken

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2018
Background A breeding program for commercial broiler chicken that is carried out under strict biosecure conditions can show reduced genetic gain due to genotype by environment interactions (G × E) between bio-secure (B) and commercial production (C ...

The Impact of the COVID‐19 Pandemic on Childhood Cancer Survival: A Population‐Based Assessment of Survival Patterns Between 2015 and 2023 in Germany

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Numerous international studies have reported declines in new cancer diagnoses, delayed diagnoses and disruptions in cancer treatment following the implementation of COVID‐19 pandemic public health measures, raising concerns that these effects may ultimately contribute to increased cancer mortality.

A population genetics model of marker-assisted selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
A deterministic two-loci model was developed to predict genetic response to marker-assisted selection (MAS) in one generation and in multiple generations.

Variation in seed dormancy quantitative trait loci in Arabidopsis thaliana originating from one site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) analysis was performed using two novel Recombinant Inbred Line (RIL) populations, derived from the progeny between two Arabidopsis thaliana genotypes collected at the same site in Kyoto (Japan) crossed with the reference ...

Segregation between breeds and local breed proportions in genetic and genomic models for crossbreds

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2023
Background The breeding value of a crossbred individual can be expressed as the sum of the contributions from each of the contributing pure breeds.

The Effect of Using Organic or Conventional Sires on Genetic Gain in Organic Pigs: A Simulation Study

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Current organic pig-breeding programs use pigs from conventional breeding populations. However, there are considerable differences between conventional and organic production systems.
