Accuracy of multi-trait genomic selection using different methods [PDF]

, 2011
Background Genomic selection has become a very important tool in animal genetics and is rapidly emerging in plant genetics. It holds the promise to be particularly beneficial to select for traits that are difficult or expensive to measure, such as traits

Composition of the ileum microbiota is a mediator between the host genome and phosphorus utilization and other efficiency traits in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica)

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2022
Background Phosphorus is an essential nutrient in all living organisms and, currently, it is the focus of much attention due to its global scarcity, the environmental impact of phosphorus from excreta, and its low digestibility due to its storage in the ...

Quantitative Trait Loci Affecting Milk Production Traits in Finnish Ayrshire Dairy Cattle [PDF]

, 2003
A whole genome scan of Finnish Ayrshire was conducted tomap quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting milk production. The analysis included 12 half-sib families containing a total of 494 bulls in a granddaughter design.

Vtrna2‐1: Genetic variation, heritable methylation and disease association [PDF]

, 2021
VTRNA2-1 is a metastable epiallele with accumulating evidence that methylation at this region is heritable, modifiable and associated with disease including risk and progression of cancer.

A Bayesian approach to detect QTL affecting a simulated binary and quatitative trait [PDF]

, 2011
Background - We analyzed simulated data from the 14th QTL-MAS workshop using a Bayesian approach implemented in the program iBay. The data contained individuals genotypes for 10,031 SNPs and phenotyped for a quantitative and a binary trait. Results - For

Understanding Disease Susceptibility through Population Genomics [PDF]

Genomics & Informatics, 2012
Genetic epidemiology studies have established that the natural variation of gene expression profiles is heritable and has genetic bases. A number of proximal and remote DNA variations, known as expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), that are ...

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

, 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 ...

Developmental and genetic effects on behavioral and life‐history traits in a field cricket

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
A fundamental goal of evolutionary ecology is to identify the sources underlying trait variation on which selection can act. Phenotypic variation will be determined by both genetic and environmental factors, and adaptive phenotypic plasticity is expected

Common DNA markers can account for more than half of the genetic influence on cognitive abilities [PDF]

, 2013
For nearly a century, twin and adoption studies have yielded substantial estimates of heritability for cognitive abilities, although it has proved difficult for genomewide-association studies to identify the genetic variants that account for this ...
