http://www.bios.unc.edu/~lin/software/MAOS/

Software application that implements valid and efficient statistical methods for meta-analysis of genomewide association studies with overlapping subjects. The current release performs logistic regression analysis of individual level data under the additive mode of inheritance. Data from genome-wide association studies are often analyzed jointly for the purposes of combining information from multiple studies of the same disease or comparing results across different disorders. In many instances, the same subjects appear in multiple studies. Failure to account for overlapping subjects can greatly inflate type I error when combining results from multiple studies of the same disease and can drastically reduce power when comparing results across different disorders.

Map of identifyied genes controlling traits of economic and welfare significance in the pig. The project objectives were to produce a genetic map with markers spaced at approximately 20 centiMorgan intervals over at least 90% of the pig genome; to produce a physical map with at least one distal and one proximal landmark locus mapped on each porcine chromosome arm and also genetically mapped; to develop a flow karyotype for the pig based on FACS sorted chromosomes; to develop PCR based techniques to enable rapid genotyping for polymorphic markers; to evaluate synteny conservation between pigs, man, mice and cattle; to develop and evaluate the statistical techniques required to analyze data from QTL mapping experiments and to plan and initiate the mapping of QTLs in the pig; to map loci affecting traits of economic and biological significance in the pig; and to develop the molecular tools to allow the future identification and cloning of mapped loci. Animal breeders currently assume that economically important traits such as growth, carcass composition and reproductive performance are controlled by an infinite number of genes each of infinitessimal effect. Although this model is known to be unrealistic, it has successfully underpinned the genetic improvement of livestock, including pigs, over recent decades. A map of the pig genome would allow the development of more realistic models of the genetic control of economic traits and the ultimately the identification of the major trait genes. This would allow the development of more efficient marker assisted selection which may be of particular value for traits such as disease resistance and meat quality.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone., documented August 23, 2016. The Human Papillomaviruses Database collects, curates, analyzes, and publishes genetic sequences of papillomaviruses and related cellular proteins.
