Predicting Fitness-Related Traits Using Gene Expression and Machine Learning.

Abstract excerpt

Evolution by natural selection occurs at its most basic through the change in frequencies of alleles; connecting those genomic targets to phenotypic selection is an important goal for evolutionary biology in the genomics era. The relative abundance of gene products expressed in a tissue can be considered a phenotype intermediate to the genes and genomic regulatory elements themselves and more traditionally...
