Sensitivity of Inferences in Forensic Genetics to Assumptions about Founding Genes By
Many forensic genetics problems can be handled using structured systems of discrete variables, for which Bayesian networks offer an appealing practical modeling framework, and allow inferences to be computed by probability propagation methods. However, when standard assumptions are violated—for example, when allele frequencies are unknown, there is identity by descent or the population is heter...

متن کاملTransitioning from Forensic Genetics to Forensic Genomics
Due to its support of law enforcement, forensics is a conservative field; nevertheless, driven by scientific and technological progress, forensic genetics is slowly transitioning into forensic genomics. With this Special Issue of Genes we acknowledge and appreciate this rather recent development by not only introducing the field of forensics to the wider community of geneticists, but we do so b...
متن کاملI-53: Genetics of Infertility: How to CloneHuman Genes Solely Involved in InfertilityPhenotype
An increased proportion of couples require a medical help to conceive and 1-3.6% of pregnancies in occidental countries are obtained thanks to a Assistance Reproduction For more than half of them the cause of these dysfunctions remains unknown and in vitro fertilization is often proposed as a universal answer to a complex problem. Most of the proposed treatments are often empirical and little h...
متن کاملThe sensitivity of carbon turnover in the Community Land Model to modified assumptions about soil processes
Soil organic matter (SOM) is the largest store of organic carbon (C) in the biosphere, but the turnover of SOM is still incompletely understood and not well described in global C cycle models. Here we use the Community Land Model (CLM) and compare the output for soil organic C stocks (SOC) to estimates from a global data set. We also modify the assumptions about SOC turnover in two ways: (1) we...
