• Evolutionary ecology of complex life cycle parasites : from genotypes to species assemblages 

  Louhi, Katja-Riikka (University of Jyväskylä, 2012)

• Genetic colour variation visible for predators and conspecifics is concealed from humans in a polymorphic moth 

  Nokelainen, Ossi; Galarza, Juan A.; Kirvesoja, Jimi; Suisto, Kaisa; Mappes, Johanna (Wiley-Blackwell, 2022)

  The definition of colour polymorphism is intuitive: genetic variants express discretely coloured phenotypes. This classification is, however, elusive as humans form subjective categories or ignore differences that cannot ...

• Heterozygote advantage and pleiotropy contribute to intraspecific color trait variability 

  De Pasqual, Chiara; Suisto, Kaisa; Kirvesoja, Jimi; Gordon, Swanne; Ketola, Tarmo; Mappes, Johanna (John Wiley & Sons, 2022)

  The persistence of intrapopulation phenotypic variation typically requires some form of balancing selection since drift and directional selection eventually erode genetic variation. Heterozygote advantage remains a classic ...

• Elevated oxidative stress in pied flycatcher nestlings of eumelanic foster fathers under low rearing temperatures 

  Teerikorpi, P. E.; Stauffer, J.; Ilmonen, P.; Calhim, Sara; Schuett, W.; Laaksonen, T. (Company of Biologists Ltd., 2019)

  Striking variation in melanin coloration within natural populations is likely due to the different fitness outcomes of alternative phenotypes in varying environmental conditions. There are two types of melanin: eumelanins ...

• Sukulaisuussuhteiden vaikutukset tyypin 1 ja 2 virheisiin ja niiden minimointi genominlaajuisissa assosiaatiokartoituksissa 

  Väänänen, Mikko (2023)

  Genominlaajuisilla assosiaatiokartoituksilla (genome-wide association studies, GWAS) tutkitaan assosiaatioita geno- ja fenotyyppien välillä genominlaajuisesti tilastollisin menetelmin. GWAS-tutkimusten tuloksille on monia ...
