Genome-wide association data classification and SNPs selection using two-stage quality-based Random Forests.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) selection and identification are the most important tasks in Genome-wide association data analysis. The problem is difficult because genome-wide association data is very high dimensional and a large ...

UGMDR: a unified conceptual framework for detection of multifactor interactions underlying complex traits.

Heredity
Biological outcomes are governed by multiple genetic and environmental factors that act in concert. Determining multifactor interactions is the primary topic of interest in recent genetics studies but presents enormous statistical and mathematical ch...

Kernel methods for large-scale genomic data analysis.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Machine learning, particularly kernel methods, has been demonstrated as a promising new tool to tackle the challenges imposed by today's explosive data growth in genomics. They provide a practical and principled approach to learning how a large numbe...

Genome-wide association study revealed candidate genes associated with egg-laying time traits in layer chicken.

Poultry science
In modern intensive caged laying hen production, variations in egg-laying time (ELT) among layers often increase the workload for egg collection, thereby raising the costs of labor or power and reducing overall efficiency. For management purpose, ear...

A flexible machine learning Mendelian randomization estimator applied to predict the safety and efficacy of sclerostin inhibition.

American journal of human genetics
Mendelian randomization (MR) enables the estimation of causal effects while controlling for unmeasured confounding factors. However, traditional MR's reliance on strong parametric assumptions can introduce bias if these are violated. We describe a ma...

Environment ensemble models for genomic prediction in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.).

The plant genome
For important food crops such as the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, L.), global demand continues to outpace the rate of genetic gain for quantitative traits. In this study, we leveraged the multi-environment trial (MET) dataset from the cooperative...

Methylomes Reveal Recent Evolutionary Changes in Populations of Two Plant Species.

Genome biology and evolution
Plant DNA methylation changes occur hundreds to thousands of times faster than DNA mutations and can be transmitted transgenerationally, making them useful for studying population-scale patterns in clonal or selfing species. However, a state-of-the-a...

Endometrial tumorigenesis involves epigenetic plasticity demarcating non-coding somatic mutations and 3D-genome alterations.

Genome biology
BACKGROUND: The incidence and mortality of endometrial cancer (EC) is on the rise. Eighty-five percent of ECs depend on estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) for proliferation, but little is known about its transcriptional regulation in these tumors.
