Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the CDH18 gene affect growth traits in Hu sheep

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Growth traits are critical economic traits in sheep. Genetic polymorphism has a great influence on the improvement of sheep traits. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of cadherin 18 (CDH18) gene polymorphisms on growth traits in Hu sheep.

Biased estimators of quantitative trait locus heritability and location in interval mapping [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 2005
In many empirical studies, it has been observed that genome scans yield biased estimates of heritability, as well as genetic effects. It is widely accepted that quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is a model selection procedure, and that the overestimation of genetic effects is the result of using the same data for model selection as estimation of ...

EFFECT OF SELECTION ON HERITABILITY AND GENETIC CORRELATION OF TWO QUANTITATIVE TRAITS IN MICE [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Genetics and Cytology, 1974
The effects of different intensities of single trait directional selection on the heritability and genetic correlation of two quantitative traits in random mating populations of mice were observed during 14 generations. The initial population was divided at random into five groups (A, B, C, D and E).

Heritability and gene effects for yield related quantitative traits in eggplant

open access: yesAnnals of Agricultural Sciences, 2016
AbstractKnowledge of gene actions and their relative contribution in expression of characters is of great importance. Therefore, four crosses were made among the six parents viz., Doli-5×GBL-1 (cross 1), Doli-5×KS-331 (cross 2), Pusa Uttam×KS-331 (cross 3) and AB 07-02×GOB 1 (cross 4) to study gene actions responsible for inheritance of twelve fruit ...

Heritability of quantitative autism spectrum traits in adults: A family‐based study

open access: yesAutism Research, 2021
AbstractAutism spectrum disorder (ASD) comprises a multi‐dimensional set of quantitative behavioral traits expressed along a continuum in autistic and neurotypical individuals. ASD diagnosis—a dichotomous trait—is known to be highly heritable and has been used as the phenotype for most ASD genetic studies.

Weighting by heritability for detection of quantitative trait loci with microarray estimates of gene expression [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2005
AbstractHeritable differences in transcribed RNA levels can be mapped as quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Transcribed RNA levels are often measured by hybridization to microarrays of oligonucleotide probes, in which each transcript is represented by multiple probes. The use of recombinant inbred lines allows an estimate of the heritability of expression

Heritability and familiality of type 2 diabetes and related quantitative traits in the Botnia Study [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetologia, 2011
To study the heritability and familiality of type 2 diabetes and related quantitative traits in families from the Botnia Study in Finland.Heritability estimates for type 2 diabetes adjusted for sex, age and BMI are provided for different age groups of type 2 diabetes and for 34 clinical and metabolic traits in 5,810 individuals from 942 families using ...

Regional Heritability Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci Controlling Traits Related to Growth and Productivity in Popcorn (Zea mays L.) [PDF]

open access: yesPlants, 2021
The method of regional heritability mapping (RHM) has become an important tool in the identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling traits of interest in plants. Here, RHM was first applied in a breeding population of popcorn, to identify the QTLs and candidate genes involved in grain yield, plant height, kernel popping expansion, and ...

Quantitative trait locus mapping and analysis of heritable variation in affiliative social behavior and co‐occurring traits [PDF]

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, 2017
Humans exhibit broad heterogeneity in affiliative social behavior. Twin and family studies show that individual differences in core dimensions of social behavior are heritable, yet there are knowledge gaps in understanding the underlying genetic and neurobiological mechanisms.

Engineering the Hierarchical Porosity of Granular Hydrogel Scaffolds Using Porous Microgels to Improve Cell Recruitment and Tissue Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.
By fabricating and covalently assembling gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) porous microgels, a new class of granular hydrogel scaffolds with hierarchical porosity is developed. These scaffolds have a significantly higher void fraction than their counterparts made up of nonporous microgels, enhancing cell recruitment and tissue integration. This research may
