Positive Selection in East Asians for an EDAR Allele that Enhances NF-κB Activation [PDF]

, 2008
Genome-wide scans for positive selection in humans provide a promising approach to establish links between genetic variants and adaptive phenotypes.

Should genetic groups be fitted in BLUP evaluation? Practical answer for the French AI beef sire evaluation

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2004
Some analytical and simulated criteria were used to determine whether a priori genetic differences among groups, which are not accounted for by the relationship matrix, ought to be fitted in models for genetic evaluation, depending on the data structure ...

Leukemia and Exposure to Potential Benzene Sources in Children From the Mexico City Metropolitan Area, 2010–2021: A Geospatial Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Genomic selection in dairy cattle [PDF]

, 2011
The objectives of this Ph.D. thesis were (1) to optimise genomic selection in dairy cattle with respect to the accuracy of predicting total genetic merit and (2) to optimise a dairy cattle breeding program using genomic selection. The study was performed

How much can the orientation of G's eigenvectors tell us about genetic constraints? [PDF]

, 2012
A key goal in evolutionary quantitative genetics is to understand how evolutionary trajectories are constrained by pleiotropic coupling among multiple traits.

Impact of Genetic Selection for Increased Cattle Resistance to Bovine Tuberculosis on Disease Transmission Dynamics

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018
Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) poses a challenge to animal health and welfare worldwide. Presence of genetic variation in host resistance to Mycobacterium bovis infection makes the trait amenable to improvement with genetic selection.

Ironic Medications: A Narrative‐Based Psycho‐Educational Intervention to Explore Patient–Provider Communication in Adolescents With Haematological Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with haematological malignancies face significant emotional and relational challenges, often accompanied by difficulties in communicating their needs within the healthcare context. To address these issues, a narrative‐based psycho‐educational intervention based on the creation and prescription of Ironic Medications was ...

Perfect Simulation From Nonneutral Population Genetic Models: Variable Population Size and Population Subdivision. [PDF]

, 2006
We show how the idea of monotone coupling from the past can produce simple algorithms for simulating samples at a nonneutral locus under a range of demographic models.

Genetic variability under step-wise discrete mutation and stabilizing selection [PDF]

, 1992
To explain the nature of genetic variability for quantitative traits in infinitely large natural populations, a model involving step-wise mutation with discrete allelic effects and stabilizing selection of optimal type is considered.
