Positive selection occurs when an allele is favored by natural selection. The frequency of the
favored allele increases in the population and due to genetic hitchhiking the neighboring …

The understanding that differences in biological epistasis may impact disease risk,
diagnosis, or disease management stands in wide contrast to the unavailability of widely …

Ensuring the security and privacy of computation and data management in the cloud and
edge is an ever-important requirement. There are several working solutions today for trusted …

epiSNP is a program for identifying pairwise single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)
interactions (epistasis) in quantitative-trait genome-wide association studies (GWAS). A …

Epistasis, the interaction between genes, has become a major topic in molecular and
quantitative genetics. It is believed that these interactions play a significant role in genetic …

Development of new methods to detect pairwise epistasis, such as SNP-SNP interactions, in
Genome-Wide Association Studies is an important task in bioinformatics as they can help to …

This book presents an experimental and computational account of the applications of
biopolymers in the field of medicine. Biopolymers are macromolecules produced by living …

Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS) reveals the influence of single nucleotide
polymorphisms (SNP) and other genetic markers on the complex genetic disease traits …

Background Genetic epistasis is an often-overlooked area in the study of the genomics of
complex traits. Genome-wide association studies are a useful tool for revealing potential …

Epistasis can be defined as the statistical interaction of genes during the expression of a
phenotype. It is believed that it plays a fundamental role in gene expression, as individual …
