25. Development of EPIC-PCR Markers for Lutjanus purpureus (Lutjanidae-Perciformes) and their Potential Applicability in Population Analyses
ABSTRACT In the present study, a novel set of eight EPIC primers were developed for Lutjanus purpureus and assayed in five other marine teleosts including three lutjanids, one scianid and one anablepid. Most of the genomic regions used in this study presented genetic diversity indexes equal or greater than the intragenic regions commonly used in population g

26. The use of microsatellite markers in Neotropical studies of wild birds: a literature review
ABSTRACT Despite extensive habitat fragmentation, the Neotropical region possesses 30% of the world´s bird species. Microsatellites have remained one of the most popular genetic markers and have been used in ecological and conservation studies since the 1990’s. We conducted a literature review comparing the number of papers published from January 1990 to

27. Quantitative genetics theory for genomic selection and efficiency of genotypic value prediction in open-pollinated populations
ABSTRACT: Quantitative genetics theory for genomic selection has mainly focused on additive effects. This study presents quantitative genetics theory applied to genomic selection aiming to prove that prediction of genotypic value based on thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) depends on linkage disequilibrium (LD) between markers and QTLs, assu

28. The role of the CNR1 gene in schizophrenia: a systematic review including unpublished data
Objective: Schizophrenia is a multifactorial disorder. It is known that a combination of extensive multiple common alleles may be involved in its etiology, each contributing with a small to moderate effect, and, possibly, some rare alleles with a much larger effect size. We aimed to perform a systematic review of association studies between schizophrenia (a

29. A comparison of efficiency parameters of SSR markers and genetic diversity analysis in Amorphophallus paeoniifolius (Dennst.) Nicolson
ABSTRACT Amorphophallus (elephant foot yam) is an herbaceous edible aroid crop which belongs to the family Araceae. The study was undertaken to identify the efficient SSR primer that could differentiate a set of 12 elephant foot yam genotypes. Various efficiency parameters, namely, Polymorphism Information Content (PIC), Marker Index (MI), Resolving Power (R

30. Quantitative genetics theory for genomic selection and efficiency of breeding value prediction in open-pollinated populations
ABSTRACT To date, the quantitative genetics theory for genomic selection has focused mainly on the relationship between marker and additive variances assuming one marker and one quantitative trait locus (QTL). This study extends the quantitative genetics theory to genomic selection in order to prove that prediction of breeding values based on thousands of si

31. Oncogenetics service and the Brazilian public health system: the experience of a reference Cancer Hospital
Abstract The identification of families at-risk for hereditary cancer is extremely important due to the prevention potential in those families. However, the number of Brazilian genetic services providing oncogenetic care is extremely low for the continental dimension of the country and its population. Therefore, at-risk patients do not receive appropriate as

32. Genetics and identification of markers linked to multiflorous spikelet in hexaploid oat
Abstract The formation of naked grains is directly associated with the formation of multiflorous spikelets in oats. The objectives of this study were to determine the genetics of multiflorous spikelet and to identify molecular markers linked to this character in hexaploid oat. Genetic analysis for multiflorous spikelet was performed in the F5 and F6 generati

33. Gene variation and genetic differentiation among populations of the solitary mud dauber wasp Trypoxylon (Trypargilum) albitarse Fabricius 1804 (Hymenoptera, Crabronidae)
Abstract Trypoxylon is a genus of solitary crabronid wasps whose population genetics is poorly known. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the genetic variation and differentiation among five populations of Trypoxylon albitarse, a species widely distributed throughout the Neotropics, with records from Panama to northern Argentina. Eight specie

34. Epidemiological aspects of Toxoplasma gondii infection in riverside communities in the Southern Brazilian Amazon
INTRODUCTION: Toxoplasma gondii infection is widely prevalent in humans and other animals worldwide. Information on the prevalence of T. gondii infection is scarce in some regions of Brazil, including riverside communities along the Amazon River basin. M METHODS: The prevalence of T. gondii in 231 people, aged 1-85 years, who were living in four riverside c

35. VARIABILIDAD GENÉTICA DE PARENTALES Y POBLACIONES F1 INTER E INTRAESPECÍFICAS DE Physalis peruviana L. Y P. floridana Rydb.
ABSTRACTCape gooseberry, Physalis peruviana, is an Andean fruit of great importance for export markets; its main limitation for production in Colombia is the vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum. The present study proposed the generation of F1 populations between contrasting pathogen response parents and their evaluation at molecular level to support

36. Lymphocyte subsets in human immunodeficiency virus-unexposed Brazilian individuals from birth to adulthood
Ethnic origin, genetics, gender and environmental factors have been shown to influence some immunologic indices, so that development of reference values for populations of different backgrounds may be necessary. We have determined the distribution of lymphocyte subsets in healthy Brazilian individuals from birth to adulthood. Lymphocyte subsets were determin
