Abstract:
Abstract Genetic gain and diversity were estimated in a 13- year old Quercus serrata breeding seed orchard under three selection (rouging) methods. The selections were based on individual selection, family selection, and family plus within family selection. Genetic gain was for stem volume and gene diversity was estimated by status number concept. Both estimated genetic gain and gene diversity were compared to those before selection and among selection scenarios. Estimated genetic gain for tree volume ranged from 4.0% to 9.1% for three selection methods under 50% selection intensity. Individua

Abstract:
Positive selection occurs when an allele is favored by natural selection. The frequency of the favored allele increases in the population and due to genetic hitchhiking the neighboring linked variation diminishes, creating so-called selective sweeps. Detecting traces of positive selection in genomes is achieved by searching for signatures introduced by selective sweeps, such as regions of reduced variation, a specific shift of the site frequency spectrum, and particular LD patterns in the region. A variety of methods and tools can be used for detecting sweeps, ranging from simple implementatio

Plant breeders make selection decisions based on multiple traits, such as yield, plant height, flowering time, and disease resistance. A commonly used approach in multi-trait genomic selection is index selection, which assigns weights to different traits relative to their economic importance. However, classical index selection only optimizes genetic gain in the next generation, requires some experimentation to find weights that lead to desired outcomes, and has difficulty optimizing nonlinear breeding objectives.

Seed orchard is also a base population, thus its genetic diversity is depending on its design and composition (provenance, family and individual tree). Selection of an individual tree in seed orchard is needed for the enhancement of  retaining good-character trees. However, selection of individual tree can change the genetic diversity of seed orchard, and the degrees to which the genetic diversity will change depend on the used selection methods.

Abstract:
Genetic progress in a herd of animals is due to the selection of four categories of pedigree animals: fathers of sires, mothers of sires, fathers of cows and mothers of cows. Extremely important role in genetic improvement of a herd plays selection of the sires for insemination of breeding stock which become the potential parents of cows. The selection of sires’ mothers, sires’ and cows’ parents provides 90-95% of the effect of selection in animal population, and massive selection of cows’ mothers only 5-10%. The main selection trait in а herd is milk production, therefore with the purpose of

Abstract:
Abstract A quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) relates quantitative chemical structure attributes (molecular descriptors) to a biological activity. QSAR studies have now become attractive in drug discovery and development because their application can save substantial time and human resources. Several parameters are important in the prediction ability of a QSAR model. On the one hand, different statistical methods may be applied to check the linear or nonlinear behavior of a data set. On the other hand, feature selection techniques are applied to decrease the model complexity,

Alternative methods of genetic evaluation which consider uncertain paternity were compared theoretically and through Monte Carlo simulation. Records were simulated for 300 base generation animals and 10 subsequent generations of 100 animals each. Probabilities of paternal uncertainty were either 20 or 50%, heritability was 0.05, 0.25 or 0.50, mating was random with a female-to-male ratio of 5, and selection of breeding animals was either random or by truncation on phenotype. Simulations were replicated 10 times. Differences in expected selection response, for the genetic evaluation methods stu

Abstract:
Since the discovery that machine learning can be used to effectively detect Android malware, many studies on machine learning-based malware detection techniques have been conducted. Several methods based on feature selection, particularly genetic algorithms, have been proposed to increase the performance and reduce costs. However, because they have yet to be compared with other methods and their many features have not been sufficiently verified, such methods have certain limitations. This study investigates whether genetic algorithm-based feature selection helps Android malware detection. We a

Abstract:
Nonrandom selection in one-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) results in biased estimates and inflated type I error rates only when the selection effects are sufficiently large. In two-sample MR, the different selection mechanisms in two samples may more seriously affect the causal effect estimation. Firstly, we propose sufficient conditions for causal effect invariance under different selection mechanisms using two-sample MR methods. In the simulation study, we consider 49 possible selection mechanisms in two-sample MR, which depend on genetic variants (G), exposures (X), outcomes (Y) and th

Twenty segregating populations were selected by two methods. The 60 best families of each method were selected according to their average agronomic performance. An augmented block design was used.
