Wool and meat genetics—the joint possibilities
Wool and meat contribute to profit in sheep enterprises and both need to be considered in breeding programs. The relative responses expected from selection for a range of traits are presented and the realised responses that have been achieved in Merinos and variation in maternal breeds are illustrated. Knowledge of genetic parameters is required for the development of complex breeding objective...
متن کاملmRNA profiling in forensic genetics I: Possibilities and limitations.
Molecular investigations gain increasing interest in forensic medicine. Examination of gene expression levels at the time point of death might have the power to become a complementing tool to the current methods for the determination of cause and circumstances of death. This includes pathophysiological conditions of disease and injury as well as the duration of agony or other premortem factors....
متن کاملGenetics of Type 2 Diabetes—Pitfalls and Possibilities
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex disease that is caused by a complex interplay between genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors. While the major environmental factors, diet and activity level, are well known, identification of the genetic factors has been a challenge. However, recent years have seen an explosion of genetic variants in risk and protection of T2D due to the technical devel...

nants containing regulatory and processing signals as powerful tools for the transfer, amplification, and subsequent analysis of foreign DNAs in mammalian cells. J. Sambrook and T. Grodzicker then present adenovirus 2-SV40 hybrids as an illustration of the potential adenovirus has as a vector for introducing exogenous sequences into eukaryotic cells. They do raise one very important considerati...
متن کاملGenetics of C-reactive protein: new possibilities and complications.
The role of inflammation in cardiovascular disease has gained enormous interest in recent years, to a significant extent as a consequence of the ease with which the acute phase protein C-reactive protein (CRP) can be assessed as a marker of inflammation. More recently, CRP has not only to be considered a marker, but also a potential participant in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease, and...
