Selection signatures in worldwide sheep populations. [PDF]
The diversity of populations in domestic species offers great opportunities to study genome response to selection. The recently published Sheep HapMap dataset is a great example of characterization of the world wide genetic diversity in sheep.

Detection of signatures of selection in commercial chicken lines [PDF]
Within the last 100 years, commercial chickens have been split into two main groups. Broiler chickens are produced for meat production while layers are produced for egg production. This has caused large phenotypic changes and the genomic signatures of

Tambaqui or cachama (Colossoma macropomum) is one of the most important neotropical freshwater fish used for aquaculture in South America, and its production is concentrated at low latitudes (close to the Equator, 0°), where the water temperature is warm.

It is known that different species of animals, when living in the same environmental conditions, can form similar phenotypes. The study of the convergent evolution of several species under the influence of the same environmental factor makes it possible ...

Selection together with variation in floral traits can act to mold floral form, often driven by a plant’s predominant or most effective pollinators. To investigate the evolution of traits associated with pollination, we developed a phylogenetic framework

Self-identification of electronically scanned signatures (ESS) and digitally constructed signatures (DCS) [PDF]
The use of electronic signatures as a form of identification is increasingly common, yet they have been shown to lack the dynamic features found in online signatures.

Identification of Signatures of Selection by Whole-Genome Resequencing of a Chinese Native Pig
Identification of genomic signatures of selection that help reveal genetic mechanisms underlying traits in domesticated pigs is of importance. Anqing six-end-white pig (ASP), a representative of the native breeds in China, has many distinguishing ...

Whole-genome scan of population differentiation in Zel and Lori-Bakhtiari sheep breeds [PDF]
Selection for increasing of frequency in new mutations that are advantageous only in a subset of populations leaves some signatures in the genome. Detecting these genomic regions is one of the most important areas of research in animal genetics since ...

Uninformative polymorphisms bias genome scans for signatures of selection [PDF]
With the establishment of high-throughput sequencing technologies and new methods for rapid and extensive single nucleotide (SNP) discovery, marker-based genome scans in search of signatures of divergent selection between populations occupying ...
