The evolutionary rates between PSGs and NSGs were compared. The Ka and Ks values were unimodally distributed. The Ka value of the PSG peak was higher than that of the NSG peak (Figs. S6a and S7a). In contrast, the Ks values of the PSGs peaked at 0.001, which was lower than that...
What are the advantages and disadvantages of selective breeding? What is the disadvantage of risk pooling? Globalization and free trade do spur economic growth, and they lead to lower prices on many goods. Is this true? What is the importance of WB and IMF, and what are their effects? How...
At a single genetic locus, what are the effects on (a) diversity, (b) effective population size, due to (a) negative or purifying selection, and (b) positive selection. Explain your answers. What are the differences between selective breeding and ge...
We first trained Wistar rats to self-administer 20% alcohol and tested the effects of AZD8529 on alcohol self-administration. We then assessed the effect of AZD8529 on cue-induced, as well as stress- induced, alcohol seeking. Finally, to establish the causal role of mGluR2 in the observed...
Its principle biometric effects seem to be to increase the genetic variance; so increasing in this way the effect of selection on human stature by more than 20 per cent. Some experimental studies with mutant genes indicate the existence of assortative mating. Rendel (rr 994444)) iinn DDrroos...
on male Wistar rats trained to self-administer 20% alcohol and determined the effects of AZD8529 on self-administration, as well as stress-induced and cue-induced reinstatement of alcohol seeking. The on-target nature of findings was evaluated in Indiana P-rats, a line recently shown to carry...
Positive selection occurs when an allele is favored by natural selection. The frequency of the favored allele increases in the population and due to genetic hitchhiking the neighboring linked variation diminishes, creating so-called selective sweeps. Det
Nevertheless, it seems unlikely that the effects of the other MRFs on Arx transcription could be entirely mediated by Myogenin. In fact, when expressed in fibroblasts from Myf5nlacZ/nlacZ(Mrf4):MyoDÀ/À mice, either MRF4 or MYF5 activated Arx more efficiently than MyoD despite the lower...
