Scientists sequenced the genomes of 2,762 individuals across India, revealing the country’s unique ancestral makeup and a ...

In fact, the study found that homozygosity levels in Indians are two to nine times higher than those observed in Europeans and East Asians. This is a critical discovery, as high homozygosity is ...

Polarization of ancestral and derived polymorphic alleles for inferences of extended haplotype homozygosity in human populations Overview The Polaris package consists of two distinct programs written ...

ROH-DICE is an efficient method for detecting ROH clusters in biobank data, enabling the study of population history of large cohorts, and providing a new genome-wide association analysis approach for ...

A meta-analysis of tests of association between variants in TREM2 and Alzheimer’s disease showed high risk among R47H homozygotes.

“Redefining APOE4 homozygosity as a genetic form of Alzheimer’s disease will have a substantial effect on Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis, research, and therapeutic development,” wrote Qin Xu, Zherui ...

Establishing homozygosity for the targeted gene in both parental strains means that the Company's new BAM 1 hybrid production system is optimized for recombinant spider silk production.

When people inherit the same gene variant from both biological parents, they have homozygous genes. Read more here and the comparisons to heterozygosity.

This page includes summaries of scientific studies on Darling 54 chestnuts. Two separate chestnut blight inoculations (controlled, replicated intentional infections with the blight fungus) confirm ...

New research from University of California, Davis, provides rare direct evidence showing that increased homozygosity - meaning two identical alleles in a genome - leads to negative effects on ...

New research provides rare direct evidence showing that increased homozygosity -- meaning two identical alleles in a genome -- leads to negative effects on fertility in a human population.
