The use of Drosophila melanogaster for studies of toxicology has grown considerably in the
last decade. The Drosophila model has long been appreciated as a versatile and powerful …

Exposure to heavy metals in various populations can lead to extensive damage to different
organs, as these metals infiltrate and bioaccumulate in the human body, causing metabolic …

How species thrive in a wide range of environments is a major focus of evolutionary biology.
For many species, limited genetic diversity or gene flow among habitats means that …

Laboratory investigations on terrestrial model-species, typically of temperate origin, have
demonstrated that terrestrial ectotherms can cope with daily temperature variations through …

The observable phenotype is the manifestation of information that is passed along different
organization levels (transcriptional, translational, and metabolic) of a biological system. The …

The ability to accurately predict complex trait phenotypes from genetic and genomic data are
critical for the implementation of personalized medicine and precision agriculture; however …

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a severe cardiac disease that
leads to heart failure or sudden cardiac death (SCD). For the pathogenesis of ARVC, various …

Accurate prediction of complex traits is an important task in quantitative genetics. Genotypes
have been used for trait prediction using a variety of methods such as mixed models …

We investigated prediction of malting quality (MQ) phenotypes in different locations using
metabolomic spectra, and compared the prediction ability of different models, and training …

Background The cold pressor test (CPT) is a widely used pain provocation test to investigate
both pain tolerance and cardiovascular responses. We hypothesize, that performing multi …
