This textbook provides a detailed, modern, and concept-based approach to the fundamental principles of genetics, emphasizing problem-solving and critical thinking skills essential for students in biology, medicine, and related fields.
A collection of reproducible research protocols and methodologies focused on comparative genomics. Each volume in the Methods in Molecular Biology series provides step-by-step protocols, including introductory overviews, materials lists, detailed procedures, and helpful notes with troubleshooting advice.
Rare monogenic disorders of the primary cilium (ciliopathies) are characterized by extreme presentations of common diseases, such as diabetes, hepatic fibrosis, and kidney failure. This study investigates the contribution of common genetic variants within Mendelian ciliopathy genes to common complex diseases pathogenesis. Researchers performed association studies of 16,874 common genetic variants across 122 ciliary genes with 12 quantitative laboratory traits in 452,593 individuals in the UK Biobank, identifying 101 statistically significant associations. The findings challenge the widely held belief that the cilium is an organelle important mainly in rare syndromic disease pathogenesis, demonstrating the utility of a Mendelian pathway-based approach to genomic association studies.
This book focuses on the genetic improvement of small millets, addressing their historical importance in Asian and African diets, analyzing the factors contributing to their decline, and discussing the need for technological breakthroughs in yield and improved value chains compared to major cereals like rice and wheat.
A comprehensive review analyzing the role and application of epigenetics in driving modern advancements and improvements within agricultural crop science.
This volume examines behavioral genetics research on temperament and personality across the lifespan. The contributors explore nuanced questions that move beyond simple heritability estimates to address issues regarding genetic and environmental mechanisms or processes associated with the development of temperament, personality, and related outcomes.
A comprehensive review book covering the essential topics in Pathology and Genetics, designed for medical students and practitioners preparing for exams.
A study conducting genome-wide selection analysis and machine learning feasibility tests using Deep Neural Network Genomic Prediction (DNNGP) on a large panel of 2,430 modern maize inbred lines. The research explores rare and favorable allelic variations to understand missing genetic diversity and improve future breeding strategies for traits like yield potential, density tolerance, and disease resistance.
A medical reference providing detailed drug monographs, dosing recommendations, administration instructions, and clinical guidelines for the use of antiretroviral drugs (such as Abacavir) in neonates and infants for the treatment and presumptive treatment of HIV infection.
This book aims at emphasizing established concepts and displaying the ongoing arguments, controversies, challenges, and debates on diagnosis and treatment of different parathyroid gland disorders. It serves as a valuable source of knowledge and reference for all specialists and trainees entrusted with the care of patients suffering from parathyroid gland diseases.
A collection of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) covering Central Nervous System (CNS) topics, focusing on clinical scenarios, diagnosis, and treatment protocols for neurological conditions, such as epilepsy (e.g., Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy).

This medical textbook analyzes the contribution of genetics to both isolated tremor, such as essential tremor (ET), and combined tremor syndromes associated with dystonia, Parkinson disease (PD), and ataxia. It applies revised criteria from the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society (2018) to provide clinicians with a framework for identifying potential genetic etiologies.
A rapid review guide focusing on key dermatological diseases and clinical presentations (e.g., Erythema Nodosum, Hirsutism, Acanthosis nigricans, Dermatitis Herpetiformis) with notes on diagnosis, investigation, and management relevant for the MRCP examination.
This text accompanies the main textbook, providing over one hundred mock marking schemes for Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs). The schemes are based on the content of the 4th Edition and are designed to aid exam preparation by tending toward over-inclusivity to ensure students cover all scored items.
A guide detailing the principles and practical applications of molecular testing in diagnostic pathology. It serves as a resource for practitioners and researchers, including case studies and supplementary materials.
