Hidden genetic variation in retinal dystrophies : exploring the contribution of copy number variations Universiteit Gent
Genetic variation in Rhipicephalus appendiculatus (Acari: Ixodidae) from Zambia: correlating genetic and ecological variation with Rhipicephalus appendiculatus from eastern and southern Africa Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Validation of criteria for the selection of AFLP markers to assess the genetic variation of a breeders' collection of evergreen azaleas Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek
Fluorescent AFLP and automated data analysis were employed to assess the genetic conformity within a breeders' collection of evergreen azaleas. The study included 75 genotypes of Belgian pot azaleas (Rhododendron simsii Planch. hybrids), Kurume and Hirado azaleas and wild ancestor species from the Tsutsusi subgenus. Fluorescent detection and addition of an internal size standard to each lane enabled the automated scoring of each fragment arising ...
Investigation of common and rare genetic variation in the BAMBI genomic region in light of human obesity Universiteit Antwerpen
The aim of this study was to confirm the previously identified link between BAMBI and human obesity by means of a genetic and functional analysis. We performed both a mutation analysis, using high-resolution melting curve analysis, and a genetic association study, including 8 common tagSNPs in the BAMBI gene region. Three of the identified genetic variants (R151W, H201R, and C229R) were evaluated for their Wnt signaling enhancing capacity in a ...
Trait variation and genetic diversity in a banana genomic selection training population KU Leuven
Banana (Musa spp.) is an important crop in the African Great Lakes region in terms of income and food security, with the highest per capita consumption worldwide. Pests, diseases and climate change hamper sustainable production of bananas. New breeding tools with increased crossbreeding efficiency are being investigated to breed for resistant, high yielding hybrids of East African Highland banana (EAHB). These include genomic selection (GS), ...
