Journal ArticleDOI

Combining partial correlation and an information theory approach to the reversed engineering of gene co-expression networks

TL;DR: It is shown that PCIT is more sensitive than established methods and capable of detecting functionally validated gene-gene interactions coming from absolute r values as low as 0.3.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Multi-Trait, Meta-analysis for Detecting Pleiotropic Polymorphisms for Stature, Fatness and Reproduction in Beef Cattle

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the multi-trait method can be used to increase the power (numbers of SNPs validated in an independent population) of GWAS in a beef cattle data set including 10,191 animals genotyped for 729,068 SNPs with 32 traits recorded, including growth and reproduction traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

A differential wiring analysis of expression data correctly identifies the gene containing the causal mutation

TL;DR: A new algorithm is proposed that correctly identifies the gene containing the causal mutation from microarray data alone and yields the correct answer, “myostatin”, the myostatin mutation that releases the brakes on Piedmontese muscle growth by translating a dysfunctional protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

A validated whole-genome association study of efficient food conversion in cattle.

TL;DR: Using whole-genome association, it is found that DNA variants in or near proteins contributing to the background use of energy of the cell were 10 times as common as those affecting appetite and body-mass homeostasis and suggests that certain subsets of micro-RNA are more important for the regulation of this trait.
