Infant Pathways to Externalizing Behavior: Evidence of Genotype × Environment Interaction

Infant pathways to externalizing behavior: evidence of Genotype x Environment interaction.

To further the understanding of the effects of early experiences, 9-month-old infants were observed during a frustration task. The analytical sample was composed of 348 linked triads of participants (adoptive parents, adopted child, and birth parent[s]) from a prospective adoption study. It was hypothesized that genetic risk for externalizing problems and affect dysregulation in the adoptive pa...

From Genotype × Environment Interaction to Gene × Environment Interaction

Historically in plant breeding a large number of statistical models has been developed and used for studying genotype × environment interaction. These models have helped plant breeders to assess the stability of economically important traits and to predict the performance of newly developed genotypes evaluated under varying environmental conditions. In the last decade, the use of relatively low...

Genotype - - Environment Interaction

T HE experiment involved 48 pairs of male Holstein fraternal twin calves. Two methods of raising calves were contrasted: (A) High fat (20%) and protein (20%) vealer ration fed from 3 days of age to a market weight of 128 kilograms. (B) The same vealer was fed up to a live weight of 56.7 kg, followed by pelleted grain mixture fed ad libitum and hay offered to a maximum of 0.9 kg per day. Twin pa...

Evaluation of Genotype × Environment Interaction for Seed Yield of Sunflower Hybrids using GGE Biplot Method

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: The sunflower is one of the most important oilseed plants in the world and its oil has nutritional and high economic value. Identification and selection of high-yielding genotypes with desirable characteristics are especially important in this plant. Evaluating sunflower genotypes under different environmental conditions would be useful to identify...
