    Genetics and livestock breeding in the UK: Co-constructing technologies and heterogeneous biosocial collectivities by Morris, Carol, Holloway, Lewis

    Published 2014
    “…The technology of particular interest here is ‘classical’ statistical genetics, which use a series of measurements taken from animals’ bodies to provide an estimate of their ‘genetic merit’ known as Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs). …”

    Genetic variation in PARL influences mitochondrial content by Curran, J., Jowett, J., Abraham, L., Diepeveen, L., Elliott, K., Dyer, T., Kerr-Bayles, L., Johnson, M., Comuzzie, A., Moses, Eric, Walder, K., Collier, G., Blangero, J., Kissebah, A.

    Published 2010
    “…To assess the influence of variation in the PARL gene on mitochondrial content, we re-sequenced 6.5 kb of the gene, identifying 16 SNPs and genotyped these in 1,086 Caucasian individuals, distributed across 170 families. Statistical genetic analysis revealed that one promoter variant, T-191C, exhibited significant effects (after correction for multiple testing) on mitochondrial content levels. …”
