چکیده

A locus is a position on a chromosome occupied by genes that determine the state of a particular phenotypic character. When that phenotypic character is something that is measurable, such as mm of fat, or kg of body weight, rather than something that is qualitative, such as eye or coat colour, the locus will be referred to as a quantitative trait locus (QTL). The various occupants of the locus are referred to as alleles. It is intuitive to think that there will be more than one locus involved in the expression of a quantitative character. In fact there will probably be hundreds of loci that are involved. However, it is also reasonable to expect that the occupants or alleles at some loci have more affect on the quantitative trait, than alleles at other loci. Let us call these QTL “leading QTL”.

شناسایی RNA های غیرکدکننده کوتاه ‌عملکردی با استفاده از روش های بیوانفورماتیکی در گوسفند و بز

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that have functional roles in post-transcriptional modification. They regulate gene expression by an RNA interfering pathway through cleavage or inhibition of the translation of target mRNA. Numerous miRNAs have been described for their important functions in developmental processes in numerous animals, but there is limited information about sheep an...

Non-zero probability of nearest neighbor searching

Nearest Neighbor (NN) searching is a challenging problem in data management and has been widely studied in data mining, pattern recognition and computational geometry. The goal of NN searching is efficiently reporting the nearest data to a given object as a query. In most of the studies both the data and query are assumed to be precise, however, due to the real applications of NN searching, suc...
