Two-generation common-garden experiment reveals a strong genetic contribution to migration tendency in brown trout (Salmo trutta)

Many salmonids, including brown trout (Salmo trutta), demonstrate alternative migration strategies under different environmental conditions, and as such, they are assumed to be predominantly facultative. Through experimental breeding for two generations, w ...

Seed Selection for Successful Fuzzing

Mathias Josef Payer

Mutation-based greybox fuzzing-unquestionably the most widely-used fuzzing technique-relies on a set of non-crashing seed inputs (a corpus) to bootstrap the bug-finding process. When evaluating a fuzzer, common approaches for constructing this corpus inclu ...

Growing maize landraces in industrialized countries: from the search for seeds to the emergence of new practices and values

Marianna Fenzi

In industrialized countries, maize cultivation is mainly associated with the use of hybrid varieties and input-intensive monocultures. Despite the homogeneity of European maize landscapes, alternative models of maize production based on landraces exist. Un ...

Biogeoinformatics for the management of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR)

Solange Catherine Gaillard

In the context of both severe selection in farm animals and potential effects of climate change, it is crucial to implement a sustainable management of the breeding practice, supported by a judicious use of geographic information technologies. Based on thi ...

Blind killing of both male and female Drosophila embryos by a natural variant of the endosymbiotic bacterium Spiroplasma poulsonii

Bruno Lemaitre, Samuel Rommelaere, Florent François Masson, Juan Camilo Paredes Escobar, Mario Gonzalo Garcia Arraez

Spiroplasma poulsonii is a vertically transmitted endosymbiont of Drosophila melanogaster that causes male-killing, that is the death of infected male embryos during embryogenesis. Here, we report a natural variant of S. poulsonii that is efficiently verti ...

A method for improving ideas selection in crowdsourcing

Gianluigi Viscusi

This paper presents an early-stage application of the design science research (DSR) method to obtain a new idea selection approach, which uses clustering to filter ideas while taking into account the seeker’s goals and the learning dynamics. Most of previo ...

When and why performance goals predict exploitation behaviors: An achievement goal complex analysis of the selection function of assessment

Fabrizio Butera, David Nguyen, Hamza Sehaqui, Kevin Fahrni, Martin Jobin, Nicolas Sommet

We adopted an achievement goal complex framework (studying achievement goals and reasons connected to goals) to determine when and why performance goals predict exploitation of others' knowledge. We hypothesized that: (i) when selective assessment is used ...

Signatures of selection and environmental adaptation across the goat genome post-domestication

Stéphane Joost, Estelle Rochat

Background: Since goat was domesticated 10,000 years ago, many factors have contributed to the differentiation of goat breeds and these are classified mainly into two types: (i) adaptation to different breeding systems and/or purposes and (ii) adaptation t ...

Common and unique strategies of male killing evolved in two distinct Drosophila symbionts

Bruno Lemaitre, Toshiyuki Harumoto

Male killing is a selfish reproductive manipulation caused by symbiotic bacteria, where male offspring of infected hosts are selectively killed. The underlying mechanisms and the process of their evolution are of great interest not only in terms of fundame ...

GenMon-CH : a Web-GIS application for the monitoring of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR) in Switzerland

Stéphane Joost

Since the initation of the Global plan of action for Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR) in 2007, individual member countries, including Switzerland, should have started a monitoring program. In this context, we developed GenMon-CH, funded by the Federal ...
