GENOME-WIDE ASSOCIATION STUDIES REVEAL NEUROLOGICAL GENES FOR DOG HERDING, PREDATION, TEMPERAMENT, AND TRAINABILITY TRAITS

Genome-Wide Association Studies Reveal Neurological Genes for Dog Herding, Predation, Temperament, and Trainability Traits

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) using dog breed standard values as phenotypic measurements is an efficient way to identify genes associated with morphological and behavioral traits.As a result of strong human purposeful selections, several specialized behavioral traits such as herding and hunting have been formed in different modern dog breeds

Hydrodynamics of a twisting slender swimmer

Sea snakes propel themselves by lateral deformation waves moving backwards along their bodies faster than they swim.In contrast to typical anguilliform swimmers, however, their swimming is characterized by exaggerated torsional waves that lead the lateral ones.The effect of torsional waves on Blitz-scaling in the Strategic Configuration of Enterpri
