  1. 6. Understanding the genetic basis of complex traits

    Författare :Yanjun Zan; Örjan Carlborg; Pär Ingvarsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :genetic architecture; complex traits; epistasis; multi-allelic; genotype by environment interaction; polygenic adaptation; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Recent advances in genetics and genomics have provided numerous opportunities to study the genetic basis of complex traits. Nevertheless, dissecting the genetic basis of complex traits is still challenged by the complex genetic architecture, in which many genes are involved, and many have small contributions to phenotypic variation, interactions with other genes or environmental factors.

  2. 7. Obsessive-compulsive disorders : Personality traits and disorders, autistic traits and biochemical findings

    Författare :Susanne Bejerot; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Key words: Obsessive-compulsive disorder; Personality; Autistic disorder; Serotonin; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Psychiatry; psykiatri;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common disabling mental disorder.Personality disorders are frequent in OCD. Asperger syndrome and high-functioning autism share similarities with obsessive-compulsive and schizoid personality disorders and may be referred to as "odd" personality traits. Also compulsions are common in autism. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Genetic Analysis of Quantitative Traits Using Domestic Animals : A Candidate Gene and Genome Scanning Approach

    Författare :Hee-Bok Park; Leif Andersson; Stefan Marklund; Robert Fredricksson; Holger Luthman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Domestication; horse; pig; chicken; quantitative traits; candidate gene; genome scan; PRKAG3; MC4R; selection experiment; growth; correlated response; metabolic disorders; Quantitative Trait Loci; linkage; single nucleotide polymorphisms; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Domestication has led to genetic changes that affect quantitative traits in farm animals. Both candidate gene analysis using association tests and genome scans based on linkage analysis have been performed to understand the molecular basis underlying quantitative genetic variation in horses, pigs and chickens.

  4. 9. A developmental perspective on psychopathic traits in adolescence

    Författare :Selma Salihovic; Margaret Kerr; Henrik Andershed; Randall. T. Salekin; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; psychopathic traits; adolescents; development; stability; change; parental behavior; subgroups; parenting; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : More than half of known crime is committed by 5-6% of the criminal population. Who are these people? Research has shown that it is likely that a majority of these individuals are characterized by having a psychopathic personality. Interestingly, research has shown that psychopathic features are not unique to adults. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Monogenic Traits Associated with Structural Variants in Chicken and Horse : Allelic and Phenotypic Diversity of Visually Appealing Traits

    Författare :Freyja Imsland; Leif Andersson; Gabriella Lindgren; Kerstin Lindblad-Toh; Eiríkur Steingrímsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Structural variation; Pigmentation; Domestication; Equids; MNR2; CCDC108; STX17; TBX3; Grey; Dun; non-dun; Rose-comb; Chicken; Genetic mapping; Phenotyping; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Domestic animals have rich phenotypic diversity that can be explored to advance our understanding of the relationship between molecular genetics and phenotypic variation. Since the advent of second generation sequencing, it has become easier to identify structural variants and associate them with phenotypic outcomes. LÄS MER
