There is increasing evidence that heritable variation in gene expression underlies genetic variation in susceptibility to disease. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the similarity between relatives for transcript variation is warranted--in particular, dissection of phenotypic variation into additive and non-additive genetic factors and shared environmental effects. We conducted a gene...

determining general and specific combining ability of lines is necessary to use them as parents of hybrid varieties. in addition, estimates of the heritability of characters helps in selecting suitable breeding methods and predicting genetic gains of the traits. to determine general and specific combining abilities and gene effects of agronomic characters, five cms lines and four restorer lines...

background: one substantial part of microarray studies is to predict patients’ survival based on their gene expression profile. variable selection techniques are powerful tools to handle high dimensionality in analysis of microarray data. however, these techniques have not been investigated in competing risks setting. this study aimed to investigate the performance of four sparse variable selec...

Interestingly, mechanism of toxic action on some target organs drugs and other substances proceedings of the european society of toxicology meeting held in berlin west june 25 28 1978 that you really wait for now is coming. It's significant to wait for the representative and beneficial books to read. Every book that is provided in better way and utterance will be expected by many peoples. Even ...

the mode of agronomic traits inheritance was investigated in safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) in drought stress as a new report. five generation including p1, p2, f1, f2 and f3 that derived from the cross of il.111 (drought sensitive) ×mex.22-191 (drought tolerance) were used in a randomized complete block design with two replications. generation mean analysis was used to estimate genetic pa...

44 Effects of polyploidy in allohexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) have primarily been ascribed 45 to increases in coding sequence variation and potential to acquire new gene functions through 46 mutation of redundant loci. However, regulatory variation that arises through new promoter and 47 transcription factor combinations or epigenetic events may also contribute to the effects of 48 pol...

Background: Yellow mosaic disease (YMD) transmitted by white fly, Bemisia tabaci is the most persistent and devastating biotic stress worldwide in India resulting reduced productivity of mungbean. At same time yield levels mungbean reached a plateau, which emphasizes importance varieties with improved productivity. Methods: In present investigation, to address this urgent requirement YMD resist...

Proper understanding of the mode gene action in open-pollinated varieties (OPVs) maize parents helps breeder choice appropriate breeding method to improve its genetic value. The objectives present study were determine controlling grain yield and other agronomic traits late maturing elite OPVs classify into heterotic groups. Ninety-one hybrids generated from 14 OPV using diallel mating design ev...

this experiment was conducted to determine gene action for different traits of chickpea including days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, plant height, 100-seed weight, number of primary branches, and number of pods per plant and seed yield since 2006 to 2009 in sararood dry land research sub institute in kermanshah. five genotypes arman, hashem, ilc588, iccv2 and ilc3279 were selected and cro...
