Selection signature analysis using whole genome resequencing data reveals candidate genes for white plumage color in Korean native ducks by Jaewon Kim, Jaegwon Kim, Eunjin Cho, Sunghyun Cho, Minjun Kim, Won-Hyung Chung, Jung-Woo Choi, Hyo Jun Choo, Jun Heon Lee

“…To detect distinct genomic regions between KND populations with different plumage colors, we analyzed three types of selection signature analysis: the fixation index (Fst), nucleotide diversity(π), and cross-population extended haplotype heterozygosity (XP-EHH). Results Population structure analysis showed that although KNDC and KNDW are distinct from PKD, they form a single group sharing a common ancestor. …”

DFT analysis of the [3 + 2] heterocyclization reaction of ((1,2,4-triazole(1,3,4-oxadiazole)-3(2)-yl)methyl)thiopyrimidines by Yu. V. Karpenko

“…The heterocyclization mechanism involves a nucleophilic attack by the amino group of hydrazide, thiol-thiourea tautomerism, ring closure, and structure aromatization. The most significant energy transitions are associated with the activation of the thiourea group and the formation of a new heterocyclic bond.…”
