Privacy Threats and Practical Solutions for Genetic Risk Tests

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Erman Ayday, Jean Louis Raisaro, Ludovic Barman, Mohammed-Taha El Graini

Recently, several solutions have been proposed to address the complex challenge of protecting individuals’ genetic data during personalized medicine tests. In this short paper, we analyze different privacy threats and propose simple countermeasures for the ...

Characterizing neutral genomic diversity and selection signatures in indigenous populations of Moroccan goats (Capra hircus) using WGS data

Stéphane Joost, Sylvie Stucki, Kevin Leempoel, Pierre Taberlet

Since the time of their domestication, goats (Capra hircus) have evolved in a large variety of locally adapted populations in response to different human and environmental pressures. In the present era, many indigenous populations are threatened with extin ...

Turnover and accumulation of genetic diversity across large time-scale cycles of isolation and connection of populations

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Major climatic and geological events but also population history (secondary contacts) have generated cycles of population isolation and connection of long and short periods. Recent empirical and theoretical studies suggest that fast evolutionary processes ...

On the transition of genetic differentiation from isolation to panmixia: What we can learn from G(ST) and D

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Population genetic differentiation characterizes the repartition of alleles among populations. It is commonly thought that genetic differentiation measures, such as G(ST) and D, should be near zero when allele frequencies are close to their expected value ...

Genome-wide patterns of adaptation to climate-mediated selective pressures in sheep

Stéphane Joost, Sylvie Stucki

Sheep (Ovis aries) have been well adapted to thrive in a diverse range of climates during the domestication and breed development process. These climate-mediated selective pressures have shown to influence phenotypic variation within and among breeds and, ...

Influenza Virus Drug Resistance: A Time-Sampled Population Genetics Perspective

Jeffrey David Jensen, Matthieu Foll, Claudia Bank, Hyunjin Shim, Gregory Bruce Ewing, Anna Ferrer Admetlla

Author Summary In recent years, considerable attention has been given to the evolution of drug resistance in the influenza A H1N1 strain. As a major annual cause of morbidity and mortality, combined with the rapid global spread of drug resistance, influenz ...

A Web-GIS application for the monitoring of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR) in Switzerland

In 2007, FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization, from the United Nations) initiated the Global plan of action for Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR) to reduce further loss of genetic diversity in farm animals. One of the key issues mentioned is to ident ...

Data integration, GIS and multi-criteria decision making for the monitoring of livestock genomic resources

Stéphane Joost

In 2007, FAO initiated the Global plan of action for Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR) to reduce further loss of genetic diversity in farm animals. One of the key issues mentioned is to identify endangered breeds to support conservation prioritization ...

Peak and persistent excess of genetic diversity following an abrupt migration increase

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Genetic diversity is essential for population survival and adaptation to changing environments. Demographic processes (e.g., bottleneck and expansion) and spatial structure (e.g., migration, number, and size of populations) are known to shape the patterns ...

Why to account for finite sites in population genetic studies and how to do this with Jaatha 2.0

With the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, large data sets of several thousand loci from multiple conspecific individuals are available. Such data sets should make it possible to obtain accurate estimates of population genetic parameters, ...
