- Selection During Maize Domestication Targeted a Gene Network Controlling Plant and Inflorescence Architecture
Selection during evolution, whether natural or artificial, is evidenced through the phenotype. For complex phenotypes like plant and inflorescence.....
- Incorporating Gene Annotation into Genomic Prediction of Complex Phenotypes
Gao et al. propose several approaches to incorporate gene annotation into genomic prediction and evaluate these new methods on populations.....
- Rhythmic Behavior Is Controlled by the SRm160 Splicing Factor in Drosophila melanogaster
Animals have evolved neural circuits that allow them to generate adaptive behaviors to their natural environment. Specific neuronal clusters depend on.....
- Stress-Induced Sleep After Exposure to Ultraviolet Light Is Promoted by p53 in Caenorhabditis elegans
The conservation of sleep among animals suggests that this behavior serves an important adaptive function; however, a unifying function for and genetic.....
- Silencing of Repetitive DNA Is Controlled by a Member of an Unusual Caenorhabditis elegans Gene Family
Levya-Díaz et al. identify a Caenorhabditis elegans gene involved in transgene silencing and RNA interference.
- Accumulation of Deleterious Mutations During Bacterial Range Expansions
Recent theoretical work suggested that deleterious mutations could accumulate during the range expansion of a species, negatively affecting its fitness.
- Selection Constrains High Rates of Tandem Repetitive DNA Mutation in Daphnia pulex
Tandemly repeated DNA is known to be highly abundant and highly divergent between species, but the genome-wide mutation rates in these mostly unmappable.....
- Multi-population Genomic Relationships for Estimating Current Genetic Variances Within and Genetic Correlations Between Populations
Relationships between individuals are important to estimate genetic variances within a population and covariances between populations. Here, Wientjes.....
