Published in 2018 at "Conservation Genetics Resources"

DOI: 10.1007/s12686-018-1057-5

Abstract: Inbreeding is omnipresent and unavoidable in population genetics. High levels of inbreeding result in a reduction of genetic diversity and inbreeding depression. The avoidance of inbreeding is a primary goal for the management of small… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Heliyon"

DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2021.e07916

Abstract: Background Homozygosity at HLA-I locus has been reported to be an unfavorable predictive biomarker of second-line or beyond immunotherapy in patients with different types of cancer. The linkage between HLA-I zygosity and survival in NSCLC… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Nature Reviews Genetics"

DOI: 10.1038/nrg.2017.109

Abstract: Long runs of homozygosity (ROH) arise when identical haplotypes are inherited from each parent and thus a long tract of genotypes is homozygous. Cousin marriage or inbreeding gives rise to such autozygosity; however, genome-wide data… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Genetics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1038/s41436-018-0281-4

Abstract: PurposeOne of the greatest challenges currently facing those studying Mendelian disease is identifying the pathogenic variant from the long list produced by a next-generation sequencing test. We investigate the predictive ability of homozygosity mapping for… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Transplantation Direct"

DOI: 10.1097/txd.0000000000001312

Abstract: Background. Homozygosity for HLAs has been associated with adverse outcomes after viral infection as well as pregnancy-induced HLA sensitization. We sought to assess the relationship between HLA locus homozygosity and the level of HLA antibody… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "PLOS ONE"

DOI: 10.1101/2022.06.12.495796

Abstract: Cacao is a globally important crop with a long history of domestication and selective breeding. Despite the increased use of elite clones by cacao farmers, worldwide plantations are established mainly using hybrid progeny material derived… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Animal genetics"

DOI: 10.1111/age.12526

Abstract: This review presents a broader approach to the implementation and study of runs of homozygosity (ROH) in animal populations, focusing on identifying and characterizing ROH and their practical implications. ROH are continuous homozygous segments that… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Animal genetics"

DOI: 10.1111/age.13250

Abstract: Inbreeding and loss of genetic diversity are serious problems in local Chinese pig breeds. Runs of homozygosity (ROHs) are contiguous lengths of homozygous genotypes that can provide information on inbreeding levels, mating schemes, selection pressure,… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "BMC Medical Genomics"

DOI: 10.1186/s12920-019-0496-5

Abstract: BackgroundCurrently, chromosomal microarrays (CMA) are recommended as first-tier test in the investigation of developmental disorders to examine copy number variations. The modern platforms also include probes for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that detect homozygous regions… read more here.
