between-region level as predictors; inmodel 5, we decomposed the within-family polygenic score into within- and between-region effects to test for active gene–environment correlations. Regions are based on Middle Layer Super Output Area (MSOA) regions of the current address (Fig.2). An import...
For example, the ADHD polygenic score is directly linked to the diagnosis of ADHD, so once genetic risk and the corresponding phenotype are covariates, their dependency is present in the model. Dependencies could also arise when gene-environment correlation (rGE) plays a role. rGE occurs when ...

We estimated correlation of r2 = 0.986 with a p-value < 2.2e - 16 between TRAC and microarray data. The model fits a gene specific intercept i.e. it shows that the basal signal values of each gene between TRAC and microarray signal differ (Additional file 1, Figure S2). However, some...
The results support the developmental model of LT tolerance gene regulation and demonstrate the complex genotype by environment interactions that determine LT adaptation in winter annual cereals. Background Low temperature (LT) is a major abiotic stress that limits the growth, productivity and ...
mutant in 105ha. Often 106ha of crop are planted, but since the vast majority of spores fail to land in a suitable environment, the rare mutants have little chance to establish. Henceplant breedersare now keen to employresistance gene pyramidscomposed of novel genes that have not yet been ...
Although ideally the variation of mRNA transcription is proportional to the activity change of mRNA-translated protein, currently this correlation is very low in most studies using gene expression. These inaccurate assumptions brought a lot of uncertainty to modeling gene expression data. LASSO used a...
environment–gene expression pair cross-tabulated values for each group. Gene enrichment were performed using gProfiler72, and using the 15,632 expressed genes that passed our filters in whole blood as the background gene set (Supplementary Table3). We evaluated the significance of the correlation...
To address these questions, we used Cntnap2 knockout mice (genetic factor, G) exposed to valproic acid during embryonic development (environmental factor, E) as a gene-environment interaction (G × E) model. Paradoxically, the social deficits observed in the respective G and E models ...
