Abstract:
Conventional genomic selection models trait individually, neglecting complex trait interactions. Multi-trait models address this by considering genetic correlations, thus improving breeding value accuracy. Despite their theoretical benefits, quantifying these models’ breeding advantages across genetic backgrounds is essential. This study evaluates the benefits of multi-trait models under varying population sizes and three levels of genetic correlations (low, medium, high) using simulations based on 50 K chip data from 5000 individuals. In equal heritability scenarios, the multi-trait GBLUP mod

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to estimate genetic parameters for the reproductive traits of boars based on single-nucleotide polymorphism data. A total of 109,836 semen samples from 2249 boars were collected between 2010 and 2022. Five basic traits were assessed: sperm volume, sperm concentration, motility, number of abnormal sperm, and, for the first time for the local population, libido. In addition, two derived traits were assessed: total sperm count and number of functional sperm. Genetic parameters were estimated using the single-step genomic best linear unbiased prediction method (ssGBLUP).

Abstract:
The meat yield (MY) is a key economic trait in Pacific whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) breeding, necessitating accurate genomic prediction for efficient genetic improvement. In this study, we investigated single-trait (STGMs) and multi-trait genomic models (MTGMs) for predicting MY and related traits, using two cross-validation strategies reflecting different data-availability scenarios. A total of 899 individuals from 63 full-sibling families were phenotyped for MY, net meat weight (MW), body weight (BW), body length (BL), and abdominal segment length (AL).

Abstract:
It is proposed to simplify the debate about the heritability of mental traits in humans by concentrating on two crucial issues: Population specificity of heritability estimates and the relation of these estimates to the malleability of the trait to which they refer. It is demonstrated that due to vast differences between the environmental variations of populations there would have to be a heritability estimate for every imaginable population, and that a heritability estimate allows no predictions whatsoever about the malleability of the trait in question. It is therefore concluded that this fi

Abstract:
AbstractAll psychological and psychophysiological traits vary, often widely, about their stable set-point values, due to transitory environmental influences. Because it is this stable set-point that embodies the genetically determined component of the trait, twin and family data based on one-time trait measurements must underestimate true trait heritability. The means of multiple measurements, taken months or years apart, then correlated within pairs of monozygotic twins, would yield an accurate estimate of the broad heritability of the set-point value, but such data are rare and expensive.

Abstract:
Two markedly different concepts of heritability co-exist in the social and life sciences. Behavioral genetics has popularized a highly technical, quantitative concept: heritability as the proportion of genetic variance relative to the total phenotypic variance of a trait in a population. At the same time, a more common biological notion simply refers to the transmission of phenotypic traits across generations via the transmission of genes. It is argued here that the behavioral-genetic concept is of little use overall, while the common biological concept is overly narrow and implies a false vie

DNA methylation (DNAm) is the covalent modification of DNA by addition of a methyl group primarily at the cytosine directly upstream of a guanine. DNAm level plays a central role in transcriptional regulation and is linked to disease. Therefore, understanding genetic and environmental influences on DNAm level in healthy tissue is an important step in the elucidation of trait and disease etiology. However, at present only a minority of easy to access human tissues and ethnicities have been investigated. Therefore, we studied DNAm level measured in five human tissues: cerebellum, frontal cortex,

Abstract:
While classical quantitative genetics usually assumes that all genotypes have the same environmental variance (the assumption of homoscedasticity), in reality, genotypes can show heteroscedasticity in the environmental variance. When such variation is heritable (i.e., has an additive variance in an outbred population), then the environmental variance can change under selection. This can either be due to an indirect response (such as during directional selection on a trait), or through direct selection to increase the homogeneity of a trait (such as for increased uniformity during harvesting).

The variability of signs of early development of plants and male gametophyte under low temperatures was evaluated. The coefficients of heritability of maternal and paternal genotypes under stressful condi-tions are calculated. A reliable dependence of the variability of the "pol

Methods for selecting the best animals based on several characteristics can be divided into stage-by-stage selection and selection based on the index of general breeding value. Productive longevity, productivity and fertility of dairy cows include several traits characterized by variability, economic importance and correlation between their phenotypes and genotypes, and heritability (h2), genetic (rg) and phenotypic correlations (rp) between several traits included in the index general breeding value, allow us to calculate regression weights per phenotypic unit of each trait and its relative e

Abstract:
Selection programs aiming at improving health and survival in cattle are complicated by low heritability estimates, the fact that true herd life and carcass quality is not known until the end of an animal's life, and that many health conditions manifest late in life. Young animals are now heavily favored in breeding programs because low generation intervals accelerate the rate of genetic progress, which means selection decisions must be made before phenotypic observation of health and survival is feasible. Moreover, profitability is compromised when livestock producers raise animals that fail

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Postharvest losses of fresh produce are estimated globally to be around 30%. Reducing these losses is considered a major solution to ensure global food security. Storage at low temperatures is an efficient practice to prolong postharvest performance of crops with minimal negative impact on produce quality or human health and the environment. However, many fresh produce commodities are susceptible to chilling temperatures, and the application of cold storage is limited as it would cause physiological chilling injury (CI) leading to reduced produce quality. Further, the primary CI becom

Abstract:
Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is one of the most devastating viruses of cultivated tomatoes. Although first identified in the Mediterranean region, it is now distributed world-wide. Sequence analysis of the virus by the Australian group has shown that the virus is now present in Australia. Despite the importance of the disease and extensive research on the virus, very little is known about the resistance genes (loci) that determine host resistance and susceptibility to the virus. A symptom-less resistant line, TY-172, was developed at the Volcani Center which has shown the highest resi

Fifty six diverse spring wheat cultivars were evaluated for genetic variation and heritability for thermotolerance in terms of cell-membrane stability (CMS) and triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) reduction. The most divergent cultivars for thermotolerance (Danbata-tolerant and Nacozari-susceptible) were crossed to develop an F8 random onbred line (RIL) population. This population was evaluated for co-segragation in CMS, yield under heat stress and HSP accumulation. Further studies of thermotolerance in relations to HSP and the expression of heterosis for growth under heat stress were perform
