With tens of billions of dollars spent each year on the development of drugs to treat human diseases, and with fewer and fewer applications for investigational new drugs filed each year despite this massive spending, questions now abound on what changes to the drug discovery paradigm can be made to achieve greater success. The high rate of failure of drug candidates in clinical development, where...
Some kernel traits of agronomical importance in maize are affected by the opaque-2 (o2) gene and background polygenes, which express in different genetic systems such as embryo, endosperm, cytoplasm and maternal plant. A genetic model for seed quantitative traits with the o2 gene effects and polygenic effects as well as their GE interactions was used for protein content, lysine content, oil content...

A method for marker-assisted selection (MAS) based on quantitative trait loci (QTLs) with epistatic effects is proposed. The efficiency of such method is investigated by simulations under a wide range of situations. In the presence of epistasis, MAS generally yields longer persistence response than that based exclusively on additive or additive and dominance. Neglecting epistasis could result in considerable...
