Accuracy of the unified approach in maternally influenced traits - illustrated by a simulation study in the honey bee (Apis mellifera)

Pooja Gupta, Norbert Reinsch, Andreas Spötter, Tim Conrad, Kaspar Bienefeld BMC Genetics 2013, 14:36 (6 May 2013)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | ePUB | PubMed |  Editor’s summary

The unified approach for estimating breeding values for maternally influenced traits in honey bees is an accurate and useful methodology for genetic evaluation, especially for traits of apicultural interest such as resistance to Varroa mites.

Genome-wide association study of infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis in Angus cattle

Kadir Kizilkaya, Richard G Tait, Dorian J Garrick, Rohan L Fernando, James M Reecy BMC Genetics 2013, 14:23 (26 March 2013)

Abstract | Provisional PDF | PubMed |  Editor’s summary

A genome-wide association study in Angus cattle to detect susceptibility to infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (pinkeye) identifies several SNPs in linkage disequilibrium with the phenotype, which may lead to identification of causative genetic variants.
