Trait independence primes convergent trait loss

open access: yesEvolution, 2018
The repeated, independent evolution of traits (convergent evolution) is often attributed to shared environmental selection pressures. However, developmental dependencies among traits can limit the phenotypic variation available to selection and bias evolutionary outcomes.

KCC2 expression levels are reduced in post mortem brain tissue of Rett syndrome patients

open access: yesActa 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

open access: yesNature 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

open access: yesNature 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.

Genetically-Informed Patient Selection for iPSC Studies of Complex Diseases May Aid in Reducing Cellular Heterogeneity

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology is more and more used for the study of genetically complex human disease but is challenged by variability, sample size and polygenicity.

A preliminary evaluation of phenotypic traits of tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A. Gray)

open access: yesJournal of Underutilised Crops Research, 2023
Background: Tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A. Gray) is an underutilised grain legume crop and important source of food, nutrition and income. To date, there are no significant breeding efforts aimed at cultivar development and the crop remains under ...
