Evidence for parent-of-origin effects in autism spectrum disorder: a narrative review
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous group of early-onset neurodevelopmental disorders known to be highly heritable with a complex...

Phenome-wide analyses identify an association between the parent-of-origin effects dependent methylome and the rate of aging in humans
BackgroundThe variation in the rate at which humans age may be rooted in early events acting through the genomic regions that are influenced by such...

A role for worm cutl-24 in background- and parent-of-origin-dependent ER stress resistance
BackgroundOrganisms in the wild can acquire disease- and stress-resistance traits that outstrip the programs endogenous to humans. Finding the...

Examining parent-of-origin effects on transcription and RNA methylation in mediating aggressive behavior in honey bees (Apis mellifera)
Conflict between genes inherited from the mother (matrigenes) and the father (patrigenes) is predicted to arise during social interactions among...

Genome-Wide Identification of Allele-Specific Gene Expression in a Parent-of-Origin Specific Manner
Upon fertilization, normal endosperm and embryo development require the contribution of both the maternal and paternal genomes. However, certain... -
Use of Soil Maps to Interpret Soil-Landform Assemblages and Soil-Landscape Evolution
Soils are a key link to the surficial sedimentologic system(s) that originally deposited the unconsolidated parent material, or to the weathering... -
Detailed observation on expression dynamics of Polycomb group genes during rice early endosperm development in subspecies hybridization reveals their characteristics of parent-of-origin genes
BackgroundParent-of-origin gene expression and its role in seed development have drown a great attention in recent years. Genome-wide analysis has...

Species of Nicotiana as the Sources of Cytoplasmic Male Sterility for Cultivated Tobacco
In tobacco, cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is the most extensively studied and practically exploited aspect of extrachromosomal inheritance. It... -
Parent-of-origin effects on quantitative phenotypes in a large Hutterite pedigree
The impact of the parental origin of associated alleles in GWAS has been largely ignored. Yet sequence variants could affect traits differently...

Heroic Viticulture in Itata Valley, Chile: Characteristics and Challenges for the Development of Unique Wines in Southern Chilean Vineyards
The Itata Valley is located in south-central Chile. It is one of the oldest valleys with rainfed viticulture, hillside vineyards, and head-trained... -
Genetic analysis of global faba bean diversity, agronomic traits and selection signatures
Key messageWe identified marker-trait associations for key faba bean agronomic traits and genomic signatures of selection within a global germplasm...

Origin and Properties of Deep Sands of Southeastern Cambodia: Some Preliminary Findings
Deep sandy soils are a feature of many landscapes in Southeast Asia but the explanations for their origin are not always known. Deep sand and sand on... -
Rare Earths in Soils
This chapter aims to review and summarize the scattered existing literature on the presence of the so-called rare earth elements (REEs) in soils by... -
Maternal patterns of inheritance alter transcript expression in eggs
BackgroundModifications to early development can lead to evolutionary diversification. The early stages of development are under maternal control, as...
