The genome-wide association study is an elementary tool to assess the genetic contribution to complex human traits. However, such association tests ar......
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is the non-random association of alleles at different loci. Squared LD coefficients r(2) (for phased genotypes) and r(Delt......
The dominance effect is considered to be a key factor affecting complex traits. However, previous studies have shown that the improvement of the model......
Drought and salt stress are important factors that affect plant growth and development and cause crop yield reductions worldwide. Phospholipase C is a......
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) plays an important role in evolutionary processes as organisms adapt to their environments, and now cases of gene dupli......

The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, is a model species in evolutionary studies. However, population processes of this species in East Asia are poo......
The development of non-recombining sex chromosomes has radical effects on the evolution of discrete sexes and sexual dimorphism. Although dioecy is ra......
Climate relicts hold considerable importance because they have resulted from numerous historical changes. However, there are major interspecific varia......
Clinal variation is paramount for understanding the factors shaping genetic diversity in space and time. During the last glacial maximum, northern Eur......
Linear mixed models (LMM) that tests trait association one marker at a time have been the most popular methods for genome-wide association studies. Ho......
Knowledge of the genetic architecture of importantly agronomical traits can speed up genetic improvement in cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.). Many re......
Naturally occurring autopolyploid species, such as the autotetraploid potatoSolanum tuberosum, face a variety of challenges during meiosis. These incl......
