Rare variant aggregation in 148,508 exomes identifies genes associated with proxy dementia
Proxy phenotypes allow for the utilization of genetic data from large population cohorts to analyze late-onset diseases by using parental diagnoses as a proxy for genetic disease risk. Proxy phenotypes based on parental diagnosis status have been used in

Gene-environment interactions (GxE) are often suggested to play an important role in the aetiology of psychiatric phenotypes, yet so far, only a handful of genome-wide environment interaction studies (GWEIS) of psychiatric phenotypes have been conducted.

On the Fourier transform of a quantitative trait: Implications for compressive sensing [PDF]
This paper explores the genotype-phenotype relationship. It outlines conditions under which the dependence of a quantitative trait on the genome might be predictable, based on measurement of a limited subset of genotypes. It uses the theory of real-valued Boolean functions in a systematic way to translate trait data into the Fourier domain.

Prompt- and Trait Relation-aware Cross-prompt Essay Trait Scoring [PDF]
Automated essay scoring (AES) aims to score essays written for a given prompt, which defines the writing topic. Most existing AES systems assume to grade essays of the same prompt as used in training and assign only a holistic score. However, such settings conflict with real-education situations; pre-graded essays for a particular prompt are lacking ...

Genome-wide meta-analysis of brain volume identifies genomic loci and genes shared with intelligence
Brain volume and intelligence have been previously found to have shared genetic etiology, but the specific common genetic signals have not been identified.

Genome editing in maize directed by CRISPR–Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complexes
Genome editing in plants typically requires the expression of Cas9 and guide RNA from stably transformed plasmid DNA. Here, the authors show that successful editing can be achieved after delivery of the Cas9-guide RNA complex as a ribonucleoprotein to ...
