Patterns of Inter-Chromosomal Gene Conversion on the Male-Specific Region of the Human Y Chromosome [PDF]
, 2017 The male-specific region of the human Y chromosome (MSY) is characterized by the lack of meiotic recombination and it has long been considered an evolutionary independent region of the human genome.

The influence of relatives on the efficiency and error rate of familial searching [PDF]
, 2013 We investigate the consequences of adopting the criteria used by the state of California, as described by Myers et al. (2011), for conducting familial searches.

Recombining your way out of trouble: the genetic architecture of hybrid fitness under environmental stress [PDF]
, 2020 Hybridization between species is a fundamental evolutionary force that can both promote and delay adaptation. There is a deficit in our understanding of the genetic basis of hybrid fitness, especially in non-domesticated organisms.

The Neolithic transition in Europe: archaeological models and genetic evidence [PDF]
, 2003 The major pattern in the European gene pool is a southeast-northwest frequency gradient of classic genetic markers such as blood groups, which population geneticists initially attributed to the demographic impact of Neolithic farmers dispersing from the ...

How Do Y-Chromosomes Modulate Genome-Wide Epigenetic States: Genome Folding, Chromatin Sinks, and Gene Expression [PDF]
, 2014 The Y chromosomes of Drosophila melanogaster and D. simulans contain only a handful of protein-coding genes, which are related to sperm mobility and reproductive fitness.

Evidence for a nuclear compartment of transcription and splicing located at chromosome domain boundaries [PDF]
, 1993 The nuclear topography of splicing snRNPs, mRNA transcripts and chromosome domains in various mammalian cell types are described. The visualization of splicing snRNPs, defined by the Sm antigen, and coiled bodies, revealed distinctly different ...

Multicolour interphase cytogenetics: 24 chromosome probes, 6 colours, 4 layers [PDF]
, 2011 From the late 1980s onwards, the use of DNA probes to visualise sequences on individual chromosomes (fluorescent in-situ hybridisation - FISH) revolutionised the study of cytogenetics.
