1. 1. The relative contribution of CNVs and SNPs to local adaptation in Norway spruce (Picea abies)

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Växtekologi och evolution; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Yuxuan Niu; [2022]
   Keywords : CNVs; SNPs; Norway spruce; local adaptation;

   Abstract : In the current environment of severe climate change, studying the adaptability of Norway spruce to the environment, that is, local adaptation is of great significance for helping to protect forest tree species and genetic breeding. As a structural variation, copy number variations (CNVs) have been proved to play an important role in shaping population structure and local adaptation in marine species, going beyond traditional studies focusing only on SNPs.

3. 2. Implementing ExomeDepth with a variant filter as a CNV-calling tool for germline clinical diagnostic testing

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Alice Krysén; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Copy number variations (CNVs) cover approximately 4.9 - 9.5% of the human genome. CNVs are involved in both the development of disease and evolutionary adaptions. READ MORE

4. 3. Molecular analysis of dog and wolf genomic DNA to explore integration polymorphisms of Canine Endogenous Retroviruses, CfERV

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

   Author : MohammadReza Mirzazadeh; [2012]
   Keywords : Endogenous Retrovirus ERV ; Canine Endogenous Retrovirus CfERV ; germ line; Vertical transmission; Polymorphism; Copy Number Variation CNV ;

   Abstract : Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are found in all examined vertebrate genomes. Different mammals have been reported to contain different amounts of ERVs. For example, in the dog genome 0.15% of sequences are derived from retroviruses. READ MORE

5. 4. Copy number variations as potential biomarkers for disease development in Breast Cancer

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Microbiology

   Author : Reddy Prakash Kancherla; [2011]
   Keywords : Breast cancer; Copy number variation; IFNAR1; VNTR;

   Abstract : Breast cancer is second foremost cause of deaths in women caused by malignant tumor.Comparing genetic profiles of cells surrounding the tumor and blood from same patient may reveal de‐novo somatic aberrations that may predispose normal cells to cancer cells. READ MORE
