Cell, 2010 Faster, smaller, easier, and better—DNA sequencing technologies have improved by quantum leaps in the past decade. This Genetics Select highlights recent studies that demonstrate how these technological advances have greatly expanded the scope and power of human genetics, especially in the blossoming fields of personalized medicine and palaeogenetics.

New cycle, same old mistakes? Overlapping vs. discrete generations in long-term recurrent selection
BMC Genomics, 2022 Background Recurrent selection is a foundational breeding method for quantitative trait improvement. It typically features rapid breeding cycles that can lead to high rates of genetic gain.

Genetic Selection for Thermotolerance in Ruminants
Animals, 2019 Variations in climatic variables (temperature, humidity and solar radiation) negatively impact livestock growth, reproduction, and production. Heat stress, for instance, is a source of huge financial loss to livestock production globally. There have been

Genetic Selection and Conservation of Genetic Diversity* [PDF]
Reproduction in Domestic Animals, 2012 ContentsFor 100s of years, livestock producers have employed various types of selection to alter livestock populations. Current selection strategies are little different, except our technologies for selection have become more powerful. Genetic resources at the breed level have been in and out of favour over time.

Increasing cassava root yield: Additive-dominant genetic models for selection of parents and clones
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Genomic selection has been promising in situations where phenotypic assessments are expensive, laborious, and/or inefficient. This work evaluated the efficiency of genomic prediction methods combined with genetic models in clone and parent selection with

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about
