Gene expression genetics of the striatum of Diversity Outbred mice

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
Brain transcriptional variation is a heritable trait that mediates complex behaviors, including addiction. Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping reveals genomic regions harboring genetic variants that influence transcript abundance.

Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Determining Vegetative Growth Traits in Coffea canephor

open access: yesCoffee and Cocoa Research Journal, 2011
Recently the use of molecular markers has been successfully applied for some crops. For coffee, new opportunities have been opened since Nestlé R&D Centre in collaboration with ICCRI completed the first genetic map of Coffea canephora.

Quantitative genetic analysis deciphers the impact of cis and trans regulation on cell-to-cell variability in protein expression levels.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2020
Identifying the factors that shape protein expression variability in complex multi-cellular organisms has primarily focused on promoter architecture and regulation of single-cell expression in cis.

Genetic analysis of genome-scale recombination rate evolution in house mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
The rate of meiotic recombination varies markedly between species and among individuals. Classical genetic experiments demonstrated a heritable component to population variation in recombination rate, and specific sequence variants that contribute to ...

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.

A stable and major QTL region on chromosome 2 conditions pod shape in cultivated peanut (Arachis hyopgaea L.)

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
Peanut pod shape is a heritable trait which affects the market acceptance of in-shell peanut products. In order to determine the genetic control of pod shape, six component traits of pod shape (pod length, pod width, pod length/width ratio, pod roundness,

Expression Quantitative Trait Loci in Equine Skeletal Muscle Reveals Heritable Variation in Metabolism and the Training Responsive Transcriptome

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
While over ten thousand genetic loci have been associated with phenotypic traits and inherited diseases in genome-wide association studies, in most cases only a relatively small proportion of the trait heritability is explained and biological mechanisms ...

Disease resistance in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar): coinfection of the intracellular bacterial pathogen Piscirickettsia salmonis and the sea louse Caligus rogercresseyi. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Naturally occurring coinfections of pathogens have been reported in salmonids, but their consequences on disease resistance are unclear. We hypothesized that 1) coinfection of Caligus rogercresseyi reduces the resistance of Atlantic salmon to

Impulsivity is a heritable trait in rodents and associated with a novel quantitative trait locus on chromosome 1 [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
AbstractImpulsivity describes the tendency to act prematurely without appropriate foresight and is symptomatic of a number of neuropsychiatric disorders. Although a number of genes for impulsivity have been identified, no study to date has carried out an unbiased, genome-wide approach to identify genetic markers associated with impulsivity in ...

Linkage analysis of a model quantitative trait in humans: finger ridge count shows significant multivariate linkage to 5q14.1.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2007
The finger ridge count (a measure of pattern size) is one of the most heritable complex traits studied in humans and has been considered a model human polygenic trait in quantitative genetic analysis.
