Hearing loss genes reveal patterns of adaptive evolution at the coding and non-coding levels in mammals
BackgroundMammals possess unique hearing capacities that differ significantly from those of the rest of the amniotes. In order to gain insights into...

Multinucleotide mutations cause false inferences of lineage-specific positive selection
Phylogenetic tests of adaptive evolution, such as the widely used branch-site test (BST), assume that nucleotide substitutions occur singly and...

Semi-supervised learning for quality control of high-value wood products
The quality control of wood products is often only checked at the end of the production process so that countermeasures can only be taken with a time...
