Time for a plant structural economics spectrum [PDF]
, 2019 We argue that tree and crown structural diversity can and should be integrated in the whole-plant economics spectrum. Ecologists have found that certain functional trait combinations have been more viable than others during evolution, generating a trait ...

KCC2 expression levels are reduced in post mortem brain tissue of Rett syndrome patients
Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2019 Rett Syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the Methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene. Deficient K+-Cl—co-transporter 2 (KCC2) expression is suggested to play a key role in the neurodevelopmental delay in RTT patients’

Genetic mapping of cell type specificity for complex traits
Nature Communications, 2019 Tissue- and cell type-specific information helps to interpret findings from genome-wide association studies. Here, the authors leverage multiple single cell expression datasets to infer cell type specificity of traits.

Item-level analyses reveal genetic heterogeneity in neuroticism
Nature Communications, 2018 Neuroticism can be assessed as a composite score of individual items. Here, Nagel et al. perform genetic association studies for 12 neuroticism items and the sum-score and demonstrate genetic heterogeneity at the item-level.

Adaptive evolution of molecular phenotypes
, 2014 Molecular phenotypes link genomic information with organismic functions, fitness, and evolution. Quantitative traits are complex phenotypes that depend on multiple genomic loci. In this paper, we study the adaptive evolution of a quantitative trait under

Functional mapping and annotation of genetic associations with FUMA
Nature Communications, 2017 Prioritizing genetic variants is a major challenge in genome-wide association studies. Here, the authors develop FUMA, a web-based bioinformatics tool that uses a combination of positional, eQTL and chromatin interaction mapping to prioritize likely ...
