Fast and robust group-wise eQTL mapping using sparse graphical models

TL;DR: Considering group-wise associations significantly improves the accuracy of eQTL mapping, and the successful multi-layer regression model opens a new approach to understand how multiple SNPs interact with each other to jointly affect the expression level of a group of genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control of a sap-sucking insect pest by plastid-mediated RNA interference.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors showed that plastid-mediated RNA interference provides an efficient strategy for controlling at least some sap-sucking insect pests, even though there is most likely no or only very little chloroplast RNA in the sap.
Journal ArticleDOI

A modelling technique for calculating stress intensity factors for structures reinforced by bonded straps. Part II: Validation

TL;DR: In this paper, a 2D FE modelling technique is presented for a range of test configurations and each mechanism that influences crack growth behavior of strap reinforced structures is modelled for different substrate geometries, strap materials and dimensions in order to test the accuracy and robustness of the methodology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of myostatin gene (MSTN) of Pekin duck and the association of its polymorphism with breast muscle traits.

TL;DR: The molecular characteristics of the PekIn duck MSTN gene and the relationship of its polymorphism with breast muscle traits in Pekin duck are revealed and can provide some useful basic understanding of M STN functions.
