DOI: 10.1007/s10519-019-09948-9
Abstract: Better characterization of the sources of phenotypic variation in human behavioural traits—stemming from genetic and environmental influences—will allow for more informed decisions about how to approach a range of challenges arising from variation, ranging from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skz122.294
Abstract: Vaginal and rectal prolapse incidence has been increasing in the commercial breeding sow population in the U.S. This has resulted in increased sow breeding mortality rates in the U.S. in recent years. The objective of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jbg.12387
Abstract: Thoroughbred racehorses are produced by mating small numbers of Arabian stallions and native British mares, and have been improved by selection of horseracing performance for about 300 years. While these improvements led to good performance as… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jeb.14071
Abstract: Telomere dynamics are linked with both cellular and organismal senescence, and life history, individual quality and health. Telomere dynamics, particularly telomere length, have therefore garnered much research interest in evolutionary biology. To examine the evolution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1530/eor-22-0026
Abstract: Purpose Idiopathic scoliosis is the most common spinal deformity and affects 1–3% of children and adolescents. Idiopathic scoliosis may run in families and the purpose of this systematic review was to describe the degree of… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fninf.2019.00016
Abstract: Imaging genetic analyses use heritability calculations to measure the fraction of phenotypic variance attributable to additive genetic factors. We tested the agreement between heritability estimates provided by four methods that are used for heritability estimates… read more here.
