1998 journal article

Detecting Marker-Disease Association by Testing for Hardy-Weinberg Disequilibrium at a Marker Locus

The American Journal of Human Genetics, 63(5), 1531–1540.

By: D. Nielsen n, M. Ehm* & B. Weir n

MeSH headings : Alleles; Genes, Recessive; Genetic Diseases, Inborn / genetics; Genetic Markers; Genetic Predisposition to Disease; Heterozygote; Humans; Linkage Disequilibrium; Models, Genetic; Models, Statistical
TL;DR: It does not follow that the usual measures of linkage disequilibrium are zero, given disease heterogeneity, and care is needed in the drawing of inferences from marker Hardy-Weinberg disequilibria for disease-susceptibility loci with more than two alleles. (via Semantic Scholar)

By: M. Schug n, C. Hutter n, K. Wetterstrand n, M. Gaudette n, T. Mackay n & C. Aquadro n

author keywords: Drosophila melanogaster; microsatellite; simple sequence length polymorphism; SSR; mutation rate; effective population size

TL;DR: A positive correlation between repeat unit length and allelic variation suggests that mutation rate increases as the repeat unit lengths of microsatellites increase, and this work estimated the relative difference in microsatellite mutation rate among di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeats in the genome of D. melanogaster using a method based on population variation.

1998 journal article

Effects of the plant growth regulator abscisic acid and high osmoticum on the developmental expression of the maize catalase genes

PHYSIOLOGIA PLANTARUM, 104(3), 413–422.

TL;DR: The data suggest that two separate pathways might be involved in the ABA-mediated induction of Cat1, and it is hypothesized that the increase in Cat gene products in response to ABA is due, in part, to A BA-mediated metabolic changes leading to changes in oxygen free radical levels, which in turn, lead to the induction of the antioxidant defense system.

1998 journal article

The relationship between the rate of transposition and transposable element copy number for copia and Doc retrotransposons of Drosophila melanogaster

GENETICS RESEARCH, 72(1), 1–11.

MeSH headings : Animals; Drosophila melanogaster / genetics; Drosophila melanogaster / physiology; Female; Gene Dosage; Male; Retroelements / genetics
TL;DR: Overall, correlation between copia and Doc transposition rate and their copy number in the genome, if any, was not negative, and this fact is in agreement with the hypothesis that a positive correlation between the rate of transposition and TE copy number may be a default starting point for future host-TE coevolution.

MeSH headings : Animals; Chromosome Mapping; Drosophila melanogaster / genetics; Genetic Variation; Genotype; Quantitative Trait, Heritable
TL;DR: It is suggested that antagonistic pleiotropy is a relatively uncommon form of genotype-environment interaction for fitness, but additional studies of natural populations are needed to confirm this conclusion. (via Semantic Scholar)
