Genomic Regions Introgressed in a Set of Bean NILs
genome-wide prediction approaches of the performance of threeway hybrids. Using an empirical barley data set, Li et al. showed that applying the developed genomic selection model allowing for subpopulation-specific marker effects (GSA-RRBLUP) tripled the prediction ability of three-way hybrids from 0.095 to 0.308 compared with the ridge regression best linear unbiased prediction approach that m...
متن کاملDiscussion of Related Species in North American Canids and Mustelids
Specimens of Filaroides milksi Whitlock, 1956 removed from the same lung tissue as were the type specimens were re-examined. Because of morphological features similar to those found in the genus Andersonstrongylus Webster, 1978 and inconsistent with those in Filaroides van Beneden, 1850, F. milksi is removed from the latter and placed in Andersonstrongylus as A. milksi (Whitlock, 1956). All ava...
متن کاملPowerful methods for detecting introgressed regions from population genomic data.
Understanding the types and functions of genes that are able to cross species boundaries-and those that are not-is an important step in understanding the forces maintaining species as largely independent lineages across the remainder of the genome. With large next-generation sequencing data sets we are now able to ask whether introgression has occurred across the genome, and multiple methods ha...
متن کاملAdmixture mapping identifies 8q24 as a prostate cancer risk locus in African-American men.
A whole-genome admixture scan in 1,597 African Americans identified a 3.8 Mb interval on chromosome 8q24 as significantly associated with susceptibility to prostate cancer [logarithm of odds (LOD) = 7.1]. The increased risk because of inheriting African ancestry is greater in men diagnosed before 72 years of age (P < 0.00032) and may contribute to the epidemiological observation that the higher...
متن کاملAdmixture in North America
The history of North America has been marked by the encounter of populations from different continents. The discovery of the New World began a period defined by human migrations at a much larger scale than in previous history. This movement of people, voluntary or forced, changed profoundly the human landscape. As populations came into contact, admixture followed in varying degrees depending on...
