Analysis of the Relationship Between Growth Hormone Receptor Polymorphism rs6180 and Craniofacial Morphological Changes Associated with Herbst Appliance Therapy
… polymorphism genotype. Statistical analysis of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and the changes in craniofacial length Z-scores in relation to a patient's genotype were performed using chi-square analysis. Results: The genotype frequencies were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Z-score differences for …

Variation in Thamnocortus insignis - genetically and environmentally plastic?
… (Puntjie) showed significant deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, whilst all the others agreed with the assumptions of the model except for the Superthatch-extra tall population, which was homologous. Estimation of allelic diversity among the populations produced a Fst of 0.098 that …

Hybridization Between the Watersnakes <i>Nerodia sipedon</i> and <i>Nerodia fasciata,</i> in the Carolinas: A Morphological and Molecular Approach
… marker, were less frequent than expected at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, implying selection against <em>N. sipedon</em> and hybrids with an increased introgression, respectively. This is consistent with a pronounced genetic and morphological dominance of <em>N. fasciata</em> in the hybrid …

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Linked to Essential Hypertension in Kasigau, Kenya
… 0.77, respectively, and demonstrated Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) as assessed by Χ<sup>2</sup>, p < 0.05. The genotype distribution of AGTR1 (rs5186) was 0.96 A/A, 0.03 A/C, and 0.00 C/C and the genotype distribution of HSD11β2 (rs5479) was 0.46 A/A, 0.46 A/C, and 0.08 C/C. The …

NONINVASIVE GENETIC SAMPLING REVELAS BLACK BEAR POPULATION DYNAMICS DRIVEN BY CHANGES IN FOOD PRODUCTIVITY
… Specifically, I investigated deviations of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and genetic substructure in relation to changes in abundance, and whether variation in vital rates were a function of changing berry productivity in the study area. I found a heterozygote deficiency and detected genetic …

An Examination of Gene Flow Among Distinct Management Units of The Reddish Egret
… control region to estimate deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, genetic differentiation, population structure, and gene flow. In all analyses, I detected more differentiations among groups and regions (Fst = 0.21) than among populations within groups (Fst = 0.09). Our results revealed …

Fine-scale genetic structure and parentage in Urocitellus beldingi
… loci amplified adequately and were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, displaying an average heterozygosity of 0.67±0.19. These nine microsatellite loci were analyzed via PCR to elucidate the fine scale genetic structure, offering insight into population health, stochastic events, and …

Investigation into X-STR haplotype frequencies for forensic human identification in South Africa
… with 421 unique haplotypes. Possible linkage disequilibrium was detected in five loci pairs in male samples and three loci pairs in female samples. However, it is expected that the effects of false linkage disequilibrium were present, and only loci pairs within the same linkage group may be in …

Genetic association between schizophrenia and type-2 diabetes
… was applied to check Mendelian errors, to test Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) and to estimate linkage disequilibrium (LD) between paired SNPs. Analysis for allelic and haplotypic associations and for the gene-gene interaction was performed with the UNPHASED program using likelihood-based …

Characterisation of the population genetics of farm-bred Haliotis midae using microsatellite DNA markers
… groups were found to deviate significantly from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and this is most likely due to the occurrence of non-random mating on the lacobsbaai abalone farm. This study has successfully demonstrated that a combination of micro satellite loci with high allelic diversity can …

A biosystematic study of the rare plant <i>Paronychia virginica</i> Sprengel (Caryophyllaceae) employing morphometric and allozyme analyses
… significant (P < 0.05) deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium indicated a deficiency in heterozygotes at the respective loci. Considering results from both the morphometric and allozyme analyses, the current author suggests recognizing two distinct subspecies, P. virginica subsp. …

Microsatellite-based genetic profiling for the management of wild and captive flamingo populations.
… All six microsatellite loci were found to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and linkage disequilibrium analyses did not suggest linkage for any pair of two greater flamingo subspecies (African and Caribbean) loci. At least five of the loci also exhibit polymorphism in Chilean and lesser flamingos, …

The population structure of wild Scottish brown trout (Samo trutta L.1758) of Loch Maree, Wester Ross: spatial genetic distribution after population decline
… analysed, with significant departures from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in almost all their loci, suggesting they may be under significant environmental pressure. The Wester Ross sea trout seem to be an admixture of the resident trout populations, with overlapping coastal ranges. Headwater …

Identification of novel coding single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome
… and comorbidity variables. All SNPs are in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE p>1×10-4) in our cases. These 3 SNPs have not been previously associated with ARDS and represent potential new genetic biomarkers for ARDS. More validations in larger patient populations and further exploration of …

The findings of this study which reports genetic variation in the KAP1.1, KAP1.3 and KRT33A has the potential to help with the identification of genetic markers linked to superior pelts. The use of genetic markers in the …
