Haplotype Block Structure Is Conserved across Mammals
Genetic variation in genomes is organized in haplotype blocks, and species-specific block structure is defined by differential contribution of population history effects in combination with mutation and recombination events. Haplotype maps characterize the common patterns of linkage disequilibrium in populations and have important applications in the design and interpretation of genetic experim...
متن کاملEmbryonic Diapause Is Conserved across Mammals
Embryonic diapause (ED) is a temporary arrest of embryo development and is characterized by delayed implantation in the uterus. ED occurs in blastocysts of less than 2% of mammalian species, including the mouse (Mus musculus). If ED were an evolutionarily conserved phenomenon, then it should be inducible in blastocysts of normally non-diapausing mammals, such as domestic species. To prove this ...
متن کاملRobustness of Inference of Haplotype Block Structure
In this report, we examine the validity of the haplotype block concept by comparing block decompositions derived from public data sets by variants of several leading methods of block detection. We first develop a statistical method for assessing the concordance of two block decompositions. We then assess the robustness of inferred haplotype blocks to the specific detection method chosen, to arb...
متن کاملConserved neural circuit structure across Drosophila larval
7 Throughout an animal’s postembryonic development, neuronal circuits must maintain appropriate out8 put even as the body grows. The contribution of changes to circuit structure – neuronal morphology and 9 synaptic connectivity – to postembryonic circuit development remains unclear. Here, we used new and 10 existing serial section electron microscopy volumes to reconstruct and compare an identi...
متن کاملLinkage disequilibrium decay and haplotype block structure in the pig.
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) may reveal much about domestication and breed history. An investigation was conducted, to analyze the extent of LD, haploblock partitioning, and haplotype diversity within haploblocks across several pig breeds from China and Europe and in European wild boar. In total, 371 single-nucleotide-polymorphisms located in three genomic regions were genotyped. The extent of L...
