Functional trait response to aridity based on leaf trait network analysis in the Hexi Corridor, China by Yingxiang Miao, Haifeng Liu, James F. White, Guoqiang Wu, Shanjia Li

“…Abstract Background Aridity acts as a strong environmental filter for plants and is predicted to intensify in the future, resulting in changes to leaf functional traits. However, few studies explore how interactions of multiple traits result in leaf trait tradeoff strategies along an aridity gradient, and whether trait separation occurs with increasing aridity intensity. …”

Quantitative Trait Loci Identify Functional Noncoding Variation in Cancer. by Holger Heyn

“…This review describes the implication of noncoding alterations in oncogenesis and provides a theoretical framework for the identification of causal somatic variants using quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis. Assuming that functional noncoding alterations affect quantifiable regulatory processes, somatic QTL studies constitute a valuable strategy to pinpoint cancer gene deregulation. …”
