RW Genetics is a family-owned and operated facility known for producing winning show pigs for your local county show, major show or national competion since 1996. We offer future champion Durocs, Yorks, and Crosses all produced from our closed herd. Also, we offer lucrative bred gilts and semen to meet all your needs. Group pricing is available, and we are always apt to work toward every budget to allow everyone a competitive chance. We take a firm stand behind our pigs and the young exhibitors who exhibit them. We can't wait to see your show ring success! FEATURED NEWS & ANNOUNCEMENTS Add News & Announcement Post

The whole human family is one species with the same genes. Mutation creates slightlydifferent versions of the same genes, called alleles. These small differences in DNA sequencemake every individual unique. They account for the variation we see in human hair color, skincolor, height, shape, behavior, and susceptibility to disease. Individuals in other speciesvary too, in both physical appearance and behavior.

Genetic variation is useful because it helps populations change over time. Variations thathelp an organism survive and reproduce are passed on to the next generation. Variations thathinder survival and reproduction are eliminated from the population. This process of naturalselection can lead to significant changes in the appearance, behavior, or physiology ofindividuals in a population, in just a few generations.

Once new alleles arise, meiosis and sexual reproduction combine different alleles in newways to increase genetic variation.

GENETICS is published by the Genetics Society of America, a scholarly society that seeks to deepen our understanding of the living world by advancing our understanding of genetics. Since 1916, GENETICS has published high-quality, original research presenting novel findings bearing on genetics and genomics. The journal publishes empirical studies of organisms ranging from microbes to humans, as well as theoretical work.

While it has an illustrious history, GENETICS has changed along with the communities it serves: it is not your mentor's journal.

The editors make decisions quickly in around 35 days without sacrificing the excellence and scholarship for which the journal has long been known. GENETICS is a peer reviewed, peer-edited journal, with an international reach and increasing visibility and impact. All editorial decisions are made through collaboration of at least two editors who are practicing scientists.

GENETICS is constantly innovating: expanded types of content include Reviews, Commentary (current issues of interest to geneticists), Perspectives (historical), Primers (to introduce primary literature into the classroom), Toolbox Reviews, plus YeastBook, FlyBook, and WormBook . For particularly time-sensitive results, we publish Communications. As part of our mission to serve our communities, we've published thematic collections, including Genomic Prediction, Multiparental Populations, Genetics of Immunity, and Genetics of Sex.

More than just a publisher, the Genetics Society of America is mission-driven and places a high priority on responding to community needs. GENETICS and G3 have long been committed to supporting resources that serve scientists. We were the first journals to partner with Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories to enable seamless deposits of manuscripts from our submission systems straight into the preprint server bioRxiv, as well as from bioRxiv to GENETICS and G3, and we have accepted submissions posted for preprint servers since 2012. Articles feature links to model organism databases like SGD, FlyBase, and WormBase. We have also partnered with Overleaf to provide custom templates for authors who use LaTex, saving them time at submission. Our collaboration with protocols.io, encourages authors to freely share methods from GENETICS articles, helping to increase research reproducibility. The annotation tool Remarq is available on both the GENETICS and G3 websites and allows for collaborative commenting and article sharing. Our latest collaboration with Figshare ensures that supplemental material and data files are permanently associated with an articleand that authors arent limited by file type or size when providing data that support their work. Early online publication means that research investigations are freely accessible and in PubMed within days of acceptance which eliminates delays in discovering the latest science.
