Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

12.6K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

Gene Families01:57

Gene Families

8.0K
Gene families consist of groups of genes proposed to have originated from a common ancestor. Typically these arise through events in which a gene or genes are mistakenly duplicated during cell division. Unlike their parent genes (which are subject to selection pressure to maintain function), these gene copies do not need to preserve their sequences and may evolve at a relatively faster rate.
Occasionally these regions can be adapted to take on new roles within the organism, becoming novel genes...

Genomics

35.5K
Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...

Wood Products01:21

Wood Products

427
Wood products encompass a broad range of materials crafted from wood strands, veneers, lumber, and even waste wood-like shreds, designed for both structural and nonstructural purposes. Various specialized wood products have been developed to enhance strength, durability, and versatility in building applications.
Glue-laminated wood, often referred to as glulam, combines multiple smaller pieces of dimensional lumber using adhesives to form a single, larger piece. Cross-laminated timber consists...

Genetic Screens02:46

Genetic Screens

4.6K
Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing  genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which...

Area of Science:

  • Forestry and Wood Science
  • Genomics
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Wood quality is crucial for specific end uses and involves multiple traits.
  • Research over 15 years has focused on assessing wood quality traits in forest trees.
  • Key wood quality traits include cell wall biochemical properties, fiber characteristics, microfibril angle, density, and stiffness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a user-friendly, open-access database for wood genes.
  • To consolidate information on wood genes, proteins, and related research articles.
  • To support data mining for genomic information relevant to wood formation and quality.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the Wood Gene Database (WGDB).
  • Inclusion of 720 wood genes from various tree species (Pinus, Deodar, Poplar, Eucalyptus).
  • Cross-linking with public databases (NCBI, EMBL, Dendrome) and bioinformatics tools (BLAST, COBALT).

Main Results:

  • WGDB provides comprehensive data on genes related to cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin.
  • The database facilitates data mining for genomic information in species like Arabidopsis thaliana, Populus trichocarpa, and various Pinus species.
  • WGDB is an interactive platform for managing and searching wood gene information.

Conclusions:

  • WGDB serves as a valuable resource for researchers studying wood formation and quality.
  • The database enhances accessibility to genomic data for tree species.
  • WGDB promotes interdisciplinary research by integrating genetic and wood quality information.
