Genome-wide scans for detecting the selection signature of the Jeju-island native pig in Korea [PDF]

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2020
Objective The Jeju native pig (JNP) found on the Jeju Island of Korea is a unique black pig known for high-quality meat. To investigate the genetic uniqueness of JNP, we analyzed the selection signature of the JNP in comparison to commercial pigs such as

Developments in target micro-Doppler signatures analysis : radar imaging, ultrasound and through-the-wall radar [PDF]

, 2013
Target motions, other than the main bulk translation of the target, induce Doppler modulations around the main Doppler shift that form what is commonly called a target micro-Doppler signature.

Genomics of Adaptations in Ungulates

Animals, 2021
Ungulates are a group of hoofed animals that have long interacted with humans as essential sources of food, labor, clothing, and transportation. These consist of domesticated, feral, and wild species raised in a wide range of habitats and biomes.

Genome-wide analysis of selection on the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum in West African populations of differing infection endemicity. [PDF]

, 2014
Locally varying selection on pathogens may be due to differences in drug pressure, host immunity, transmission opportunities between hosts, or the intensity of between-genotype competition within hosts. Highly recombining populations of the human malaria
