Marine reserves (areas closed to fishing) have been advocated for the management of many species, including the rock scallop Spondylus calcifer in the northern Gulf of California (NGC), Mexico. We developed an explicit c...

Journal Article GENEPOP (Version 1.2): Population Genetics Software for Exact Tests and Ecumenicism Get access M. Raymond, M. Raymond Institut des Sciences de l'Evolution, URA CNRS 327, Laboratoire de Genetique et Enviro...

We present here a new version of the Arlequin program available under three different forms: a Windows graphical version (Winarl35), a console version of Arlequin (arlecore), and a specific console version to compute sum...

Abstract A key factor contributing to the success of Darwin and Wallace’s theory of biological evolution by natural selection was its population-level perspective. This conceptual framework was not immediately adopted,...

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most prevalent symptomatic primary immunodeficiency and remains underdiagnosed in Brazil due to limited knowledge of its genetic landscape. Since 2024, the Centro Nacional d...

Abstract Background The genetic architecture of circulating amino acids (AAs) and microbiota-related metabolites (MRMs) in relation to cardiometabolic disease remains poorly characterized in East Asian populations, limit...

Dichroplus elongatus is an extensively distributed South American grasshopper considered a pest of major crops. Argentinean populations show a widespread B-chromosome polymorphism which could be maintained as the result ...

Finite mixture models are helpful for uncovering heterogeneity due to hidden structure; for example, unknown major genes. The first part of this article gives examples and reviews quantitative genetics issues of continuo...

Stylosanthes hippocampoides, a native legume forage species, was first studied by our research team in 2016 to assess genetic variability in natural populations in northeastern Argentina. Recurrent fires in the following...

The coevolution of the human diet and gut microbiome has played a pivotal role in shaping metabolic, immune, and epigenetic functions across human history. Dietary transitions from high-fiber ancestral patterns to modern...

Background A new approach to estimating gene carrier rates was introduced in 2019, relying on the frequency of pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) variants from ClinVar in a large, population sequencing database (Genome ...

The population structure of the Murciano-Granadina breed was determined using 25 microsatellites from 266 goats of seven populations. The results of the genetic differentiation analysis showed that it is possible to diff...

Abstract We conducted a Phenome-Wide Association Study (PheWAS) to investigate whether alleles previously shown to be associated with problem behaviors in Labrador Retrievers from the U.S. Transportation Security Adminis...

The choice of sampling method is essential in the development of a population genetic study. This choice influences the type of samples that can be obtained and, therefore, the quality of the extracted DNA. Sampling meth...

The HMGA1 (High Mobility Group AT-hook 1) gene is considered a candidate locus for growth- and fatness-related traits in pigs due to its involvement in transcriptional regulation and energy metabolism and its localizatio...

Argentine populations of Dichroplus elongatus (Orthoptera: Acrididae) are polymorphic for B chromosomes. Previous studies showed that B chromosomes affect body size and some fitness components in Northwestern populations...

Abstract Background Accurate risk stratification of colorectal cancer (CRC) is essential for precise screening. Polygenic risk scores (PRS) hold promise for improving predictive efficacy in CRC. However, the real-world a...

Abstract Transcriptome sequencing data offer a valuable resource for inferring genetic variants, yet their application in forensic individual identification and kinship analysis remains insufficiently explored. This stud...

Abstract Effective management decisions rely on accurate insights into species’ population structure, with high-quality genetic material being essential. Stranded cetaceans are an important source of samples, but meeti...

Genome-wide association (GWA) studies based on GBLUP models are a common practice in animal breeding. However, effect sizes of GWA tests are small, requiring larger sample sizes to enhance power of detection of rare vari...

Introduction and aims: Submucous cleft palate (SMCP) is a congenital craniofacial malformation. While TBX22 is a known pathogenic gene, the potential role of TBX15 in SMCP remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate...

As research and services in the Mediterranean region continue to increase, so do opportunities for global collaboration. To support such collaborations, the Alzheimer's Association was due to hold its seventh Alzheimer's...
