Answer to: Explain how many phenotypes are there for a trait that has two alleles that are governed by incomplete dominance. By signing up, you'll...
Bird song is a highly labile trait, affected greatly by anatomy, the environment10, and in most species by cultural learning11,12. Indeed, most genetic studies on bird song have so far focused on the genes implicated in song learning13,14,15,16, thus leaving the molecular mechanisms underlyi...
Instead, we found that dominance rank significantly predicted autistic-like trait burden in female rhesus monkeys, such that higher-ranking individuals exhibited fewer autistic-like traits compared to lower-ranking ones. What does one make of this puzzling pattern of results? Although we did assess ...
We selected a constant population size model with uniform priors on clock rate and a symmetric substitution model with a uniform prior distribution for the discrete trait substitution model underlying the diffusion of the clone in space. We checked for convergence by considering the effective sample ...
A gene is a sequence of DNA that can be transcribed into mRNA. This mRNA can then be used to make a protein. The mRNA is a copy of the gene, and the gene is essentially a set of instructions that tells the cellular machinery how to ...
Fig. 3: BTK expression regulates viability and the metastatic trait of OSCC cells. A Cell viability curve for the SAS/-IR and TW2.6/-IR cell line at 48 h of treatment with dose-dependent of cisplatin. B BTK-KD cells exhibited slower area closure than WT cells in the in vitro scratch...
we found that the predicted and observed IOI trait values were highly correlated (Pearson’sR = 0.78) and that the inferred phenotypes explained a statistically significant proportion of observed IOIs (LM:β = 2.04, st. error = 0.17,t = 11.53,P = <0.001, adjustedR2...
For symptom-based depression, on the other hand, the strongest correlation was observed for the personality trait neuroticism (r = 0.840). There were also population-specific patterns. The genetic correlations of clinical depression in individuals of East Asian descent with metabolic traits were...
Low-temperature germination (LTG) is an important agronomic trait for rice (Oryza sativa). Japonica rice generally has greater capacity for germination at low temperatures than the indica subpopulation. However, the genetic basis and molecular mechanisms
Fig. 4: Cross-trait genetic correlation of traits with CRP. Ordered by group and ascending p value. The error bars correspond to the SE. Full size image Using PheWAS, a weighted genetic risk score (GRS) based on UKB-CHARGE meta-analysis results was associated with 27 different outcomes at...
