Correlation
A method for extracting period~10 modulations from DNA sequence correlations applied to the Drosophila melanogaster genome
Authors: J.C.O. Guerra P. Licinio
Nucleosome DNA packaging and positioning within the Drosophila melanogaster genome imposes a weak modulation, with a period of about 10 bp in the genomic composition correlations. We present formalism for extracting such modulations from an irreducible set of six correlation functions calculated along the D. melanogaster genome. These modulations were see.. Read More»

Analysis of genetic traits for drought tolerance in maize
Authors: R.W. Muhammad, A. Qayyum, A. Hamza, M.Q. Ahmad, N.S. Naseer, S. Liaqat, B. Ahmad, W. Malik and E. Noor
Fifty-four genotypes of maize were crossed and evaluated in the field during the crop season in February 2012 under both normal and water stress conditions. To identify the major parameters responsible for variation among genotypes, single linkage cluster analysis and principle component analysis (PCA) were carried out. Thirteen characters were studied. T.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and selection of common bean lines based on technological quality and biofortification
Authors: S. de M. Steckling, N.D. Ribeiro, F.D. Arns, H.C. Mezzomo, M.T.D.F. Possobom
The development of common bean cultivars with high technological quality that are biofortified with minerals, is required to meet the demand for food with health benefits. The objectives of this study were to evaluate whether common bean genotypes differ in terms of technological and mineral biofortification traits, to study t.. Read More»

Desmoglein 4 diversity and correlation analysis with coat color in goat
Authors: G.X. E1, Y.J. Zhao1, Y.H. Ma2, G.L. Cao3, J.N. He4, R.S. Na1, Z.Q. Zhao1,C.D. Jiang1, J.H. Zhang1, S. Arlvd5, L.P. Chen1, X.Y. Qiu1, W. Hu1 and Y.F. Huang1
Desmoglein 4 (DSG4) has an important role in the development of wool traits in domestic animals. The full-length DSG4 gene, which contains 3918 bp, a complete open-reading-frame, and encodes a 1040-amino acid protein, was amplified from Liaoning cashmere goat. The sequence was compared with that of DSG4 from other animals and the results show that the DSG.. Read More»

Correlation-based linear discriminant classification for gene expression data
Authors: M. Pan and J. Zhang
Microarray gene expression technology provides a systematic approach to patient classification. However, microarray data pose a great computational challenge owing to their large dimensionality, small sample sizes, and potential correlations among genes. A recent study has shown that gene-gene correlations have a positive effe.. Read More»

Genetic study of skin thickness and its association with postweaning growth in Nellore cattle: estimation of the genetic parameters
Authors: A.M. Maiorano1, M.C.S. Oliveira2, J.N.S.G. Cyrillo3, L.G. Albuquerque1,R.A. Curi4 and J.A.IIV. Silva4
The objective of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters for skin thickness (ST) and postweaning weight gain (PWG550) in Nellore cattle. Records were obtained from 152,392 Nellore animals born between 2001 and 2011. ST was measured in the posterior region of the animal’s scapula with a millimeter caliper. The animals were assigned to di.. Read More»

Genome-wide partial correlation analysis of Escherichia coli microarray data
Authors: Veiga DFT, Vicente FFR, Grivet M, de la Fuente A and Vasconcelos ATR
Transcriptional control is an essential regulatory mechanism employed by bacteria. Much about transcriptional regulation remains to be discovered, even for the most widely studied bacterium, Escherichia coli. In the present study, we made a genome-wide loworder partial correlation analysis of E. coli microarray data with the p.. Read More»
