Abstract:
... This paper presents the analytical and numerical comparison of two methods of estimation of additive × additive × additive (aaa) interaction of QTL effects. The first method takes into account only the plant phenotype, while in the second we also included genotypic information from molecular marker observation. Analysis was made on 150 doubled haploid (DH) lines of barley derived from cross Stepto ...

Abstract:
... Sugarcane breeding programs aim to deliver new high-yielding varieties, resistant to diseases and pests, which contribute to profitability and sustainability of cane industries. These programs generally mobilize significant experimental, technological and human resources on long-term basis. Their efficiency in terms of genetic gains per unit of cost and time and their ability to release new variet ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Individual and environmental health outcomes are frequently linked to changes in the diversity of associated microbial communities. Thus, deriving health indicators based on microbiome diversity measures is essential. While microbiome data generated using high-throughput 16S rRNA marker gene surveys are appealing for this purpose, 16S surveys also generate a plethora of spurious microb ...

Abstract:
... Options for remediating 1,4-dioxane at groundwater sites are limited due to the physical-chemical properties of this compound. The relevance of natural attenuation processes for 1,4-dioxane was investigated through data from field, lab, and modeling efforts. The objectives were to use multiple lines of evidence for 1,4-dioxane biodegradation to understand the prevalence of this activity and evalua ...

Abstract:
... The major drawback of a dioecious spine gourd (Momordica dioica Roxb.) is distinguishing whether the plant is male or female at an earlier development stage. An investigation was aimed to eliminate aforesaid limitation by identifying and validating sex linked molecular marker. Twenty six male and female genotypes of each sex were screened with 12 specific SSR primers. Only two SSR primers, MdSSR 5 ...

Abstract:
... The rapid development of single-cell sequencing technologies makes it possible to analyze cellular heterogeneity at the single-cell level. Cell clustering is one of the most fundamental and common steps in the heterogeneity analysis. However, due to the high noise level, high dimensionality and high sparsity, accurate cell clustering is still challengeable. Here, we present DeepCI, a new clusterin ...

Abstract:
... Introduction: The onset of the Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) is caused by acquired somatic mutations in target myeloid genes “driver mutations”. The CCL2 gene is overexpressed by non-Hodgkin lymphomas and multiple solid tumors. Aim of the study: to evaluate the possible association of CCL2 rs1024611 SNP and its expression level and the risk of developing Phil ...

Abstract:
... Hermesinum adriaticum is a rare marine and brackish flagellate that is of considerable interest due to its markable and fossilizable siliceous skeleton. Based on this skeleton, Hermesinum was initially considered a microalga of the Dictyochophyceae (Ochrophyta, Stramenopiles). Later on, it was assigned to the Ebriida due to its similarity to Ebria tripartita. The taxonomic assignment of the Ebriid ...

Abstract:
... Identification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) degrading bacterial populations and understanding their responses to PAHs are crucial for the designing of appropriate bioremediation strategies. In this study, the responses of PAHs-degrading bacterial populations to different PAHs were studied in terms of the compositions and abundance variations of their new functional marker gene (pahE) ...
geneticmarkers, etc ; agriculture; allelic variation; landraces; mutation; transposons; waxy corn; China; Show all 8 Subjects
Abstract:
... Waxy maize is one of the main fresh-eating maize types, and a mutation of the waxy gene causes the waxy character of maize grains. China is rich in waxy maize landraces, and Yunnan and its surrounding areas, are the place of origin and genetic diversity center of Chinese waxy maize. The six known waxy alleles of Chinese waxy maize are wx-D7, wx-D10, wx-Cin4, wx-124, wx-Reina, and wx-Xuanwei. The m ...
geneticmarkers, etc ; Arabidopsis; Pseudomonas syringae; Verticillium dahliae; cotton; protein metabolism; sequence analysis; Show all 7 Subjects
Abstract:
... Auxin-mediated degradation of Aux/IAA proteins is a crucial step in auxin signaling. Recent researches indicate that Aux/IAA members also play a role in biotic and abiotic stresses. For example, Pseudomonas syringae infection causes Arabidopsis Aux/IAA protein (AXR2, AXR3) turnover. Here, by analyzing RNA-seq data we found that several cotton Aux/IAA genes are responsive to Verticillium dahliae in ...

Abstract:
... High morphological variation of Typha L. species (Typhaceae) inspires some authors to describe new taxa. We aim to test genetic distinctiveness of some taxa reported in East Europe on morphological basis to verify their taxonomical status. We use sequences of intergenic spacer rpl32-trnL of cpDNA that was shown to be a reliable molecular marker in non-hybrid Typha species. We found that T. caspica ...

Abstract:
... Deletion/insertion polymorphism (DIP) is a promising genetic marker of DNA length polymorphism. However, there are relatively few studies on the exploration of DIP genetic polymorphisms and investigation of population genetic data at present, which limits its application in forensic identification. In this study, the genetic polymorphisms of 57 autosomal DIPs and forensic application evaluations o ...

Abstract:
... Forty-eight mango accessions were compared for genetic diversity and relationships based on four molecular marker assays, namely, inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR), sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP), CAAT-box derived polymorphism (CBDP), and cis-element amplified polymorphism (CEAP). Comparative analyses of the marker assays based on Nei's genetic diversity (H), Shannon's informatio ...

Abstract:
... Along with rapid advances in high-throughput-sequencing technology, the development and application of molecular markers has been critical for the progress that has been made in crop breeding and genetic research. Desirable molecular markers should be able to rapidly genotype tens of thousands of breeding accessions with tens to hundreds of markers. In this study, we developed a multiplex molecula ...

Abstract:
... Freshwater ecosystems are important contributors to the global greenhouse gas budget and a comprehensive assessment of their role in the context of global warming is essential. Despite many reports on freshwater ecosystems, relatively little attention has been given so far to those located in the southern hemisphere and our current knowledge is particularly poor regarding the methane cycle in non- ...

Abstract:
... Porcine circovirus 4 (PCV4), a novel porcine circovirus identified in pigs, has recently been proved to be pathogenic to piglets. However, little is known about its cross-species transmission, and demonstration of PCV4 in dairy cows is lacking. To explore whether the PCV4 genome exists in dairy cows, 1170 fecal samples were collected from dairy farms in 7 cities in Henan Province of China during 2 ...

Abstract:
... Chrysanthemummorifolium Ramat. ‘Daboju’ is a C. morifolium cultivar with important ornamental and medicinal values, and is often used in the treatment of colds, blurred vision, dizziness, and itchy skin. As the morphological characteristics of C. morifolium ‘Daboju’ are very similar to those of other C. morifolium cultivars, they are often confused in practice. However, the medicinal value and pra ...

Abstract:
... Metabolic detoxification (detox)—or biotransformation—is a physiological function that removes toxic substances from our body. Genetic variability and dietary factors may affect the function of detox enzymes, thus impacting the body’s sensitivity to toxic substances of endogenous and exogenous origin. From a genetic perspective, most of the current knowledge relies on observational studies in huma ...
