A quantitative trait locus genome scan for porcine muscle fiber traits reveals overdominance and epistasis.
Muscle histochemical characteristics are decisive determinants of meat quality. The relative percentage and diameters of the different muscular fiber types influence crucial aspects of meat such as color, tenderness, and ultimate pH. Despite its relevance, however, the information on muscle fiber genetic architecture is scant, because histochemical muscle characterization is a laborious task. H...
متن کاملA genome wide dosage suppressor network reveals genomic robustness
Genomic robustness is the extent to which an organism has evolved to withstand the effects of deleterious mutations. We explored the extent of genomic robustness in budding yeast by genome wide dosage suppressor analysis of 53 conditional lethal mutations in cell division cycle and RNA synthesis related genes, revealing 660 suppressor interactions of which 642 are novel. This collection has sev...
متن کاملEvolutionary constraints imposed by gene dosage balance.
The gene dosage balance hypothesis states that a concentration imbalance among components of macromolecules is often deleterious. Thus this notion potentially provides a mechanistic explanation for understanding genetic dominance and gene duplicability. Accumulating evidence emerged from recent genomic data has strongly supported this hypothesis. Further efforts are needed to understand dosage ...
متن کاملGenome scan of three quantitative traits in schizophrenia pedigrees.
BACKGROUND Twin and adoption studies have consistently implicated genes in the etiology of schizophrenia. Molecular genetic studies have found some consistent support for linkage to many regions of the genome. Despite these encouraging results, none of these findings have achieved genome-wide levels of statistical significance, and none have been consistently replicated. METHODS This report i...
متن کاملQuantitative-genetic variation in morphological and physiological traits within a quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) population
Genetic diversity within populations is an important component of adaptive evolution, and recent research has demonstrated that genetic variation within plant populations can have important ecological effects. In this study, we investigate quantitative-genetic variation in several traits within a quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) population. A common garden experiment was planted with ...
