Bias in estimates of variance components in populations undergoing genomic selection: a simulation study

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background After the extensive implementation of genomic selection (GS), the choice of the statistical model and data used to estimate variance components (VCs) remains unclear.

Breakpoint Associated with a novel 2.3 Mb deletion in the VCFS region of 22q11 and the role of Alu (SINE) in recurring microdeletions

BMC Medical Genetics, 2006
Background Chromosome 22q11.2 region is highly susceptible to rearrangement, specifically deletions that give rise to a variety of genomic disorders including velocardiofacial or DiGeorge syndrome.

Harnessing benzamides as plant stress inhibitors, growth promoters and in management of crop resilience—A review

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Benzamides boost crop resilience by inhibiting poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) to enhance stress tolerance and, through their antimicrobial, herbicidal, and insecticidal derivatives, they offer broad protection for sustainable crop improvement. Abstract Benzamides have emerged as potent stress inhibitors and growth promoters in plant biotechnology ...

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 10, 22 May 2026.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Impact of Model Parameterisation and Variance Component Estimates on Genomic Predictions of Carcass Traits in Montana Composite Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 3, Page 431-442, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the influence of variance component (VC) estimates, obtained from different models and two relationship matrices, pedigree‐based (BLUP) and genomic information‐based (ssGBLUP), on genomic predictions of carcass traits in Montana composite cattle.

Disentangling the Components Shaping Aquatic Richness Over Spatial Scales in Extreme Climatic Events

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Species richness in a region can be partitioned into three components: (1) spatial aggregation of individuals, (2) variation in total individual density and (3) species abundance distribution (SAD). However, it remains unclear how the influence of these components on richness changes under extreme climatic events.

Lactobacillus Salivarius‐Derived Indole‐3‐Acetic Acid Promotes AHR‐PARP1 Axis‐Mediated DNA Repair to Mitigate Intestinal Aging

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
Indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA) acting as one of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) endogenous ligands is identified to be derived from Lactobacillus salivarius via its catalytic enzyme (ALDH) rather than host cells. Lactobacillus salivarius and IAA supplementation effectively mitigate intestinal aging by facilitating AHR‐poly (ADP‐ribose) polymerase 1 ...
