USE OF PLEIOTROPY TO MODEL GENETIC INTERACTIONS IN A POPULATION.

Use of pleiotropy to model genetic interactions in a population.

Systems-level genetic studies in humans and model systems increasingly involve both high-resolution genotyping and multi-dimensional quantitative phenotyping.We present a novel method to infer and interpret genetic interactions that exploits the complementary information in multiple phenotypes.We applied this approach to a population of yeast strai

Evaluating the impact of handling and logger attachment on foraging parameters and physiology in southern rockhopper penguins.

Logger technology has revolutionised our knowledge of the behaviour and physiology of free-living animals but handling and logger attachments may have negative effects on the behaviour of the animals and their welfare.We studied southern rockhopper penguin (Eudyptes chrysocome) females during the guard stage in apac1/60/1/cw three consecutive breed
