Existing global databases of species' threat status or population time series are dominated by charismatic species. The collation of datasets with broad taxonomic and biogeographic extents, and that support computation of a range of biodiversity indicators, is necessary to enable better understanding of historical declines and to project - and avert - future declines. We describe and assess a new database of more than 1.6 million samples from 78 countries representing over 28,000 species, collated from existing spatial comparisons of local-scale biodiversity exposed to different intensities and types of anthropogenic pressures, from terrestrial sites around the world. The database contains measurements taken in 208 (of 814) ecoregions, 13 (of 14) biomes, 25 (of 35) biodiversity hotspots and 16 (of 17) megadiverse countries. The database contains more than 1\% of the total number of all species described, and more than 1\% of the described species within many taxonomic groups - including flowering plants, gymnosperms, birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, beetles, lepidopterans and hymenopterans. The dataset, which is still being added to, is therefore already considerably larger and more representative than those used by previous quantitative models of biodiversity trends and responses. The database is being assembled as part of the PREDICTS project (Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems - ).

We have quantified the variance in liability to disease explained by all SNPs for two phenotypically-related neurobehavioral disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Tourette Syndrome (TS), using GCTA. Our analysis yielded a heritability point estimate of 0.58 (se = 0.09, p = 5.64e-12) for TS, and 0.37 (se = 0.07, p = 1.5e-07) for OCD. In addition, we conducted multiple genomic partitioning analyses to identify genomic elements that concentrate this heritability. We examined genomic architectures of TS and OCD by chromosome, MAF bin, and functional annotations. In addition, we assessed heritability for early onset and adult onset OCD. Among other notable results, we found that SNPs with a minor allele frequency of less than 5\% accounted for 21\% of the TS heritability and 0\% of the OCD heritability. Additionally, we identified a significant contribution to TS and OCD heritability by variants significantly associated with gene expression in two regions of the brain (parietal cortex and cerebellum) for which we had available expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs). Finally we analyzed the genetic correlation between TS and OCD, revealing a genetic correlation of 0.41 (se = 0.15, p = 0.002). These results are very close to previous heritability estimates for TS and OCD based on twin and family studies, suggesting that very little, if any, heritability is truly missing (i.e., unassayed) from TS and OCD GWAS studies of common variation. The results also indicate that there is some genetic overlap between these two phenotypically-related neuropsychiatric disorders, but suggest that the two disorders have distinct genetic architectures.}, language = {en} } @article{AdrianMartinezAgeronAharonianetal.2016, author = {Adri{\´a}n-Mart{\´i}nez, S. and Ageron, M. and Aharonian, F. and Aiello, S. and Albert, A. and Ameli, F. and Annasontzis, E. and Andre, M. and Androulakis, G. and Anghinolfi, M. and Anton, G. and Ardid, M. and Avgitas, T. and Barbarino, G. and Baret, B. and Barrios-Mart{\´i}, J. and Belhorma, B. and Belias, A. and Berbee, A. and van den Berg, A. and Bertin, V. and Beurthey, S. and van Beeveren, V. and Beverini, N. and Biagi, S. and Biagioni, A. and Billault, M. and Bond{\`i}, M. and Bormuth, R. and Bouhadef, B. and Bourlis, G. and Bourret, S. and Boutonnet, C. and Bouwhuis, M. and Bozza, C. and Bruijn, R. and Brunner, J. and Buis, E. and Busto, J. and Cacopardo, G. and Caillat, L. and Calmai, M. and Calvo, D. and Capone, A. and Caramete, L. and Cecchini, S. and Celli, S. and Champion, C. and Cherkaoui El Moursli, R. and Cherubini, S. and Chiarusi, T. and Circella, M. and Classen, L. and Cocimano, R. and Coelho, J.

These objectives are strongly motivated by two recent important discoveries, namely: (1) the high-energy astrophysical neutrino signal reported by IceCube and (2) the sizable contribution of electron neutrinos to the third neutrino mass eigenstate as reported by Daya Bay, Reno and others. To meet these objectives, the KM3NeT Collaboration plans to build a new Research Infrastructure consisting of a network of deep-sea neutrino telescopes in the Mediterranean Sea. A phased and distributed implementation is pursued which maximises the access to regional funds, the availability of human resources and the synergistic opportunities for the Earth and sea sciences community. Three suitable deep-sea sites are selected, namely off-shore Toulon (France), Capo Passero (Sicily, Italy) and Pylos (Peloponnese, Greece). The infrastructure will consist of three so-called building blocks. A building block comprises 115 strings, each string comprises 18 optical modules and each optical module comprises 31 photo-multiplier tubes. Each building block thus constitutes a three-dimensional array of photo sensors that can be used to detect the Cherenkov light produced by relativistic particles emerging from neutrino interactions. Two building blocks will be sparsely configured to fully explore the IceCube signal with similar instrumented volume, different methodology, improved resolution and}, language = {en} } @article{AdrianMartinezAlbertAndreetal.2016, author = {Adri{\´a}n-Mart{\´i}nez, S. and Albert, A. and Andr{\´e}, M. and Anton, G. and Ardid, M. and Aubert, J.-J. and Avgitas, T. and Baret, B. and Barrios-Mart{\´i}, J. and Basa, S. and Bertin, V. and Biagi, S. and Bormuth, R. and Bou-Cabo, M. and Bouwhuis, M.C. and Bruijn, R. and Brunner, J. and Busto, J. and Capone, A. and Caramete, L. and Carr, J. and Celli, S. and Chiarusi, T. and Circella, M. and Coleiro, A. and Coniglione, R. and Costantini, H. and Coyle, P. and Creusot, A. and Deschamps, A. and De Bonis, G. and Distefano, C. and Donzaud, C. and Dornic, D. and Drouhin, D. and Eberl, T. and El Bojaddaini, I. and Els{\"a}sser, D. and Enzenh{\"o}fer, A. and Fehn, K. and Felis, I. and Fusco, L.A. and Galat{\`a}, S. and Gay, P. and Geißels{\"o}der, S. and Geyer, K. and Giordano, V. and Gleixner, A. and Glotin, H. and Gracia-Ruiz, R. and Graf, K. and Hallmann, S. and van Haren, H. and Heijboer, A.J. and Hello, Y. and Hern{\´a}ndez-Rey, J.-J. and H{\"o}ßl, J. and Hofest{\"a}dt, J. and Hugon, C. and Illuminati, G. and James, C.W. and de Jong, M. and Kadler, M. and Kalekin, O. and Katz, U. and Kießling, D. and Kouchner, A. and Kreter, M. and Kreykenbohm, I. and Kulikovskiy, V. and Lachaud, C. and Lahmann, R. and Lef{\`e}vre, D. and Leonora, E. and Loucatos, S. and Marcelin, M. and Margiotta, A. and Marinelli, A. and Mart{\´i}nez-Mora, J.A. and Mathieu, A. and Michael, T. and Migliozzi, P. and Moussa, A. and Mueller, C. and Nezri, E. and Păvălaș, G.E. and Pellegrino, C. and Perrina, C. and Piattelli, P. and Popa, V. and Pradier, T. and Racca, C. and Riccobene, G. and Roensch, K. and Salda{\~n}a, M. and Samtleben, D.F.E. and Sanguineti, M. and Sapienza, P. and Schnabel, J. and Sch{\"u}ssler, F. and Seitz, T. and Sieger, C. and Spurio, M. and Stolarczyk, Th. and S{\´a}nchez-Losa, A. and Taiuti, M. and Trovato, A. and Tselengidou, M. and Turpin, D. and T{\"o}nnis, C. and Vallage, B. and Vall{\´e}e, C. and Van Elewyck, V. and Vivolo, D. and Wagner, S. and Wilms, J. and Zornoza, J.D. and Z{\´u}{\~n}iga, J.}, title = {A search for Secluded Dark Matter in the Sun with the ANTARES neutrino telescope}, series = {Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics}, volume = {2016}, journal = {Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics}, number = {5}, organization = {The ANTARES collaboration}, doi = {10.1088/1475-7516/2016/05/016}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-189035}, pages = {12}, year = {2016}, abstract = {A search for Secluded Dark Matter annihilation in the Sun using 2007-2012 data of the ANTARES neutrino telescope is presented.

Some features of the energy and declination distributions of IceCube events hint at a North/South asymmetry of the neutrino flux. This could be due to the presence of the bulk of our Galaxy in the Southern hemisphere. The ANTARES neutrino telescope, located in the Mediterranean Sea, has been taking data since 2007. It offers the best sensitivity to muon neutrinos produced by galactic cosmic ray interactions in this region of the sky. In this letter a search for an extended neutrino flux from the Galactic Ridge region is presented. Different models of neutrino production by cosmic ray propagation are tested. No excess of events is observed and upper limits for different neutrino flux spectral indices Γ are set. For Γ=2.4 the 90\% confidence level flux upper limit at 100 TeV for one neutrino flavour corresponds to Φ\(^{1f}_{0}\) (100 TeV) = 2.0 · 10\(^{-17}\) GeV\(^{-1}\) cm\(^{-2}\)s\(^{-1}\)sr\(^{-1}\).

We determine the directional effect of gene expression on disease risk measured based on single and multiple eQTL. In addition, using a gene-based test of association that considers eQTL from multiple tissues, we identify seven (and four) regions with variants associated with overall (and ER-negative) breast cancer risk, which were not reported in previous GWAS.

Prospective and retrospective methods of assessment of lithium response have been proposed in the literature. In this study we report the key phenotypic measures of the "Retrospective Criteria of Long-Term Treatment Response in Research Subjects with Bipolar Disorder" scale currently used in the Consortium on Lithium Genetics (ConLiGen) study. Materials and Methods: Twenty-nine ConLiGen sites took part in a two-stage case-vignette rating procedure to examine inter-rater agreement [Kappa (\(\kappa\))] and reliability [intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC)] of lithium response. Annotated first-round vignettes and rating guidelines were circulated to expert research clinicians for training purposes between the two stages. Further, we analyzed the distributional properties of the treatment response scores available for 1,308 patients using mixture modeling. Results: Substantial and moderate agreement was shown across sites in the first and second sets of vignettes (\(\kappa\) = 0.66 and \(\kappa\) = 0.54, respectively), without significant improvement from training. However, definition of response using the A score as a quantitative trait and selecting cases with B criteria of 4 or less showed an improvement between the two stages (\(ICC_1 = 0.71\) and \(ICC_2 = 0.75\), respectively). Mixture modeling of score distribution indicated three subpopulations (full responders, partial responders, non responders). Conclusions: We identified two definitions of lithium response, one dichotomous and the other continuous, with moderate to substantial inter-rater agreement and reliability.

In addition, we identified two novel ovarian cancer risk modifier loci: 17q21.31 (rs17631303, P = 1.4 x 10(-8), HR = 1.27, 95\% CI: 1.17-1.38) and 4q32.3 (rs4691139, P = 3.4 x 10(-8), HR = 1.20, 95\% CI: 1.17-1.38). The 4q32.3 locus was not associated with ovarian cancer risk in the general population or BRCA2 carriers, suggesting a BRCA1-specific association. The 17q21.31 locus was also associated with ovarian cancer risk in 8,211 BRCA2 carriers (P = 2 x 10(-4)). These loci may lead to an improved understanding of the etiology of breast and ovarian tumors in BRCA1 carriers. Based on the joint distribution of the known BRCA1 breast cancer risk-modifying loci, we estimated that the breast cancer lifetime risks for the 5\% of BRCA1 carriers at lowest risk are 28\%-50\% compared to 81\%-100\% for the 5\% at highest risk. Similarly, based on the known ovarian cancer risk-modifying loci, the 5\% of BRCA1 carriers at lowest risk have an estimated lifetime risk of developing ovarian cancer of 28\% or lower, whereas the 5\% at highest risk will have a risk of 63\% or higher. Such differences in risk may have important implications for risk prediction and clinical management for BRCA1 carriers.}, language = {en} }
