Heritability Estimates of Some Quantitative Traits in Potatoes

, 2020
Broad-sense heritability (H) values of some quantitative traits in a potato population comprising 21 genotypes grown at Bornova, Izmir, Turkey during the 2013 and 2014 growing seasons were estimated by using the variance components analysis method. Based on the combined analysis of variance performed over two years, the following moderate to high level

Characterization of genome-methylome interactions in 22 nuclear pedigrees.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Genetic polymorphisms can shape the global landscape of DNA methylation, by either changing substrates for DNA methyltransferases or altering the DNA binding affinity of cis-regulatory proteins.

Natural variation reveals that intracellular distribution of ELF3 protein is associated with function in the circadian clock

eLife, 2014
Natural selection of variants within the Arabidopsis thaliana circadian clock can be attributed to adaptation to varying environments. To define a basis for such variation, we examined clock speed in a reporter-modified Bay-0 x Shakdara recombinant ...

Using Extended Genealogy to Estimate Components of Heritability for 23 Quantitative and Dichotomous Traits

PLoS Genetics, 2013
Important knowledge about the determinants of complex human phenotypes can be obtained from the estimation of heritability, the fraction of phenotypic variation in a population that is determined by genetic factors. Here, we make use of extensive phenotype data in Iceland, long-range phased genotypes, and a population-wide genealogical database to ...

Heritability and genetic loci of fatty liver in familial combined hyperlipidemia

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
VLDL overproduction, a process that is driven by an excess amount of hepatic fat, is a well-documented feature of familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL).

A metabolome and microbiome dataset of male morphotype differentiation in giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii

Scientific Data
This integrated multi-omics resource delineates the molecular and phenotypic trajectories underlying male morphotype differentiation (Blue Claw [BC], Orange Claw [OC], Small Male [SM]) in Macrobrachium rosenbergii during determinative developmental ...

An intronic enhancer of Bmp6 underlies evolved tooth gain in sticklebacks.

PLoS Genetics, 2018
Threespine stickleback fish offer a powerful system to dissect the genetic basis of morphological evolution in nature. Marine sticklebacks have repeatedly invaded and adapted to numerous freshwater environments throughout the Northern hemisphere.

A Non-Synonymous HMGA2 Variant Decreases Height in Shetland Ponies and Other Small Horses.

PLoS ONE, 2015
The identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) such as height and their underlying causative variants is still challenging and often requires large sample sizes.
