(2022)El flujo génico en aves puede verse afectado por la urbanización dependiendo de la historia natural y adaptabilidad de la especie al cambio de hábitat. Se pueden esperar resultados contrastantes cuando se comparan ... -
Genetic structure of personality factors and bipolar disorder in families segregating bipolar disorder
(Journal of Affective Disorders xxx (2011) xxx–xxx, 2011)Bipolar disorder (BPD) has been associated with variations in personality dimensions, but the nature of this relationship has been unclear. Inthis study, theheritabilities of BPDandtheBig Five personality factors and the ... -
Genetic variants of the lipoprotein lipase gene and myocardial infarction in the Central Valley of Costa Rica
(2004)To assess common variants of the LPL gene that could influence susceptibility to myocardial infarction (MI), we assessed three functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), D9N, N291S, and S447X, in 1,321 survivors ... -
Genetic variation and racial admixture in the Miskito of the southern Mosquito Shore, Nicaragua
(1998)A survey of the electrophoretic variation at eleven loci red-blood cell enzymes. hemoglobins and serum proteins was performed on a sample of 59 Miskitos stemming from the southernmost part of the Mosquito shore of Nicaragua. ... -
Genetic variation at twentythree microsatellite loci in sixteen human populations
(1999-08)We have analysed genetic variation at 23 microsatellite loci in a global sample of 16 ethnically and geographically diverse human populations. On the basis of their ancestral heritage and geographic locations, the studied ... -
Genetic variation in the Bribri and Cabecar Amerindians from Talamanca, Costa Rica
(1991)A screening of more than 40 loci was performed in the Bribri and Cabecar Amerindian populations of Talamanca in Southeastern Costa Rica. Some differences were found in the distribution (presence or absence) of the variants ... -
Genetic variation of the Y chromosome in Chibcha-Speaking amerindians of Costa Rica and Panama
(Human Biology 77(1): 71-91, 2005)Genetic variation of the Y chromosome in five Chibchan tribes (Bribri, Cabecar, Guaymi, Huetar, and Teribe) of Costa Rica and Panama was analyzed using six microsatellite loci (DYS 19, DYS389A, DYS389B, DYS390, DYS391, and ... -
Genetic, dietary, and other lifestyle determinants of serum homocysteine levels in young adults in Costa Rica
(2005)Objective: Elevated serum total homocysteine (tHcy) is considered an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The objective of this study was to develop the first-ever information on the prevalence of ... -
La genética cuantitativa en Phaseolus vulgaris: el ejemplo de la resistencia a Xanthomonas campestris pv. Phaseoli
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 1988)Aunque la genética cuantitativa no ha tenido aplicación muy amplia al mejoramiento del frijol común (Phaseolus vulgaris), varios autores han publicado estudios sobre análisis cuantitativos de la resistencia a Xanthomonas ... -
