Mitochondrial haplogroup A2 is associated with increased COVID-19 mortality in an admixed Brazilian population.

Scientific reports
Mitochondria play a crucial role in cellular respiration and immune responses. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups and variants have been associated with various diseases, including COVID-19. This study analyzed complete mtDNA sequences from 467 Br...

A machine learning approach for estimating Eastern Asian origins from massive screening of Y chromosomal short tandem repeats polymorphisms.

International journal of legal medicine
Inferring the ancestral origin of DNA evidence recovered from crime scenes is crucial in forensic investigations, especially in the absence of a direct suspect match. Ancestry informative markers (AIMs) have been widely researched and commercially de...

Mind the Gap: A Neural Network Framework for Imputing Genotypes in Non-Model Species.

Molecular ecology resources
Reduced representation sequencing (RRS) has proven to be a cost-effective solution for sequencing subsets of the genome in non-model species for large-scale studies. However, the targeted nature of RRS approaches commonly introduces large amounts of ...

Utilizing machine learning and bioinformatics analysis to identify drought-responsive genes affecting yield in foxtail millet.

International journal of biological macromolecules
Drought stress is a major constraint on crop development, potentially causing huge yield losses and threatening global food security. Improving Crop's stress tolerance is usually associated with a yield penalty. One way to balance yield and stress to...

Using Haplotype-Based Artificial Intelligence to Evaluate SARS-CoV-2 Novel Variants and Mutations.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Earlier detection of emerging novel SARS-COV-2 variants is important for public health surveillance of potential viral threats and for earlier prevention research. Artificial intelligence may facilitate early detection of SARS-CoV2 emergi...

Haplotype and population structure inference using neural networks in whole-genome sequencing data.

Genome research
Accurate inference of population structure is important in many studies of population genetics. Here we present HaploNet, a method for performing dimensionality reduction and clustering of genetic data. The method is based on local clustering of phas...

Evolution and dispersal of mitochondrial DNA haplogroup U5 in Northern Europe: insights from an unsupervised learning approach to phylogeography.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: We combined an unsupervised learning methodology for analyzing mitogenome sequences with maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetics to make detailed inferences about the evolution and diversification of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup U5,...

A new linear combination method of haplogroup distribution central vectors to model population admixtures.

Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG
We introduce a novel population genetic approach suitable to model the origin and relationships of populations, using new computation methods analyzing Hg frequency distributions. Hgs were selected into groups which show correlated frequencies in sub...

Profiling of 35 Cases of Hb S/Hb E (: c.20A>T/: c.79G>a), Disease and Association with α-Thalassemia and β-Globin Gene Cluster Haplotypes from Odisha, India.

Hemoglobin
Hb S/Hb E (: c.20A>T/: c.79G>A) is an uncommon variant of sickle cell disease resulting from coinheritance of Hb S and Hb E. Clinico-hematological and biochemical parameters of 35 cases of Hb S/Hb E disease were studied and compared with 70 matched c...
