Experiments

Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

• Inferring human colonization history using a copying model.

  A copying-model approach using SNP haplotype sharing can infer both the order of population founding and the donor populations contributing ancestry to each new population.

  Full-text index only

  Natural selection and population demographic history both distort patterns of genetic variation relative to the standard neutral model, so single-locus tests cannot unambiguously distinguish selection from demography.

  Dietary restriction and reduced temperature extend Drosophila lifespan via intrinsically different demographic mechanisms: dietary restriction lowers intrinsic frailty, while lower temperature reduces the rate of senescence.

  Genomewide linkage analysis in 26 multiplex IA families with AA-affected members identified LOD peaks on chromosome 11 (LOD=3.0) and chromosome 6 (LOD=2.3) using a broad IA/AA-combined phenotype

• Adaptation, aging, and genomic information.

  PMID 20157529 · PMC2806027 · Aging · 2009 · 8 claims · 6 setups

  Full-text index only

  Aging is caused primarily by the absence of adaptive genomic information for later-age survival and function, due to declining forces of natural selection with adult age; this absence secondarily produces misallocation and damage at every level of biological organization.
