The genetic architecture of phenotypic correlations offers insights into how natural selection operates in the wild. Two functional phenotypes in Atlantic salmon, early life exploration and age‐at‐maturity, are correlated at an adaptive genomic hotspot, but through distinct genetic markers (SNPs), ruling out causality.

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate whether genetic predisposition to pre‐eclampsia (PE), measured by a polygenic risk score (PRS), is associated with incident hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD) after delivery in Asian women. Design Prospective population‐based cohort study.

ABSTRACT Objective Maternal genotypes may be useful to customise foetal growth assessment, but generalisability across diverse racial and ancestral groups remains uncertain. We assessed the generalisability of a genetic risk score for birth weight (GRSBW), derived from participants of predominantly European ancestry, within a diverse U.S.

Abstract In typical inheritance, a child receives one chromosome of each pair from each parent. In rare cases, however, both chromosomes may be inherited from the same parent, a phenomenon known as uniparental disomy (UPD). In forensic kinship testing, UPD can lead to Mendelian inconsistencies between parent and child, increasing the risk of ...

Coloration serves several fitness‐related functions, including thermoregulation, immunity, social signaling, sexual selection, and predator avoidance. Consequently, color polymorphism can have a significant impact on a species’ interactions with its environment, including its relationships with predators, prey, and potential mates. The wood tiger moth (

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.
