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.

Polytraits : a database on biological traits of marine polychaetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The study of ecosystem functioning – the role which organisms play in an ecosystem – is becoming increasingly important in marine ecological research. The functional structure of a community can be represented by a set of functional traits assigned to ...

Functional mapping and annotation of genetic associations with FUMA

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Determining Vegetative Growth Traits in Coffea Canephor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Recently the use of molecular markers has been successfully applied for some crops. For coffee, new opportunities have been opened since Nestlé R&D Centre in collaboration with ICCRI completed the first genetic map of Coffea canephora. This study was

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Genome-wide association study results for educational attainment aid in identifying genetic heterogeneity of schizophrenia

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Educational attainment and schizophrenia have a negative phenotypic relationship but show positive genetic correlation. Here, the authors study genetic dependence between the two traits and find that multiple genes have pleiotropic effects on both ...
