Admixture in Latin America: geographic structure, phenotypic diversity and self-perception of ancestry based on 7,342 individuals
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
The current genetic makeup of Latin America has been shaped by a history of extensive admixture between Africans, Europeans and Native Americans, a process taking place within the context of extensive geographic and social ...
Genetic differences between sexes for morphometric traits of GIFT tilapia
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-03-01)
The study was carried out to verify the genetic differences in the morphometric traits between male and female tilapia GIFT under the selection for weight gain. The data set used contained information of 6650 animals of ...
Seed Pubescence and Shape Modulate Adaptive Responses to Fire Cues
(Public Library Science, 2016)
Post-fire recruitment by seeds is regarded as an adaptive response in fire-prone ecosystems. Nevertheless, little is known about which heritable seed traits are functional to the main signals of fire (heat and smoke), thus ...
Multivariate estimate of heritability for quality traits in tomatoes by the multiple factor analysis
(Embrapa Secretaria de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento, 2019)
Novel genetic loci affecting facial shape variation in humans.
(eLife Sciences Publications, 2019)
The human face represents a combined set of highly heritable phenotypes, but knowledge on its genetic architecture remains limited, despite the relevance for various fields. A series of genome-wide association studies on ...
Improving phenotypic prediction in dairy cattle breeding using the metagenome
(2019-11-18)
Ruminants evolved from Artiodactyla in the Eocene 50–70 million years ago. In that period, grass began to populate the largest land surface on Earth. Since then, ruminants and their microbiota have evolved together in ...
Magnitude of Genotype × Environment Interactions Affecting Tomato Fruit Quality
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2012-06)
There is a growing interest by consumers to purchase fresh tomatoes with improved quality traits including lycopene, total soluble solids (TSS), vitamin C, and total titratable acid (TTA) content. As a result, there are ...
Testicular traits as selection criteria for young Nellore bulls
(AMER SOC ANIMAL SCIENCE, 2011)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the possible use of biometric testicular traits as selection criteria for young Nellore bulls using Bayesian inference to estimate heritability coefficients and genetic correlations. ...
