Highlights We used data from the genome‐wide association studies database and two‐sample mendelian randomization method, we found that genetic evidence supporting that knee osteoarthritis is a potential risk factor for type 2 diabetes. Abstract Background Physical inactivity is an independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Evaluation and redesign of the primers for detecting nitrogen cycling genes in environments
Abstract A better understanding of how nitrogen (N) cycling genes are involved in ecological processes is one of the crucial areas of microbial ecology. Currently, most molecular biological techniques investigating N cycling genes in the environment heavily rely on the accuracy of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers; however, their specificity ...

Highlights Ten single nucleotide polymorphisms were found to be associated with diabetes risk. There were significant associations of diabetes genetic risk scores and weighted diabetes genetic risk scores with fasting plasma glucose and diabetes. Abstract Background Genome‐wide association studies have identified loci that significantly increase ...

Assessing the genetic diversity of edible insects harvested from the wild is a pre‐requisite for designing conservation and management policies. The caterpillars of Gynanisa maja (Saturniidae) are harvested in large numbers in mopane woodlands in southern Africa, where they represent a seasonal source of income and nutrition to many rural communities ...

This study provides an innovation to address the challenge in accessibility to samples and genetic markers in Snow leopard conservation genetic studies. We performed next‐generation sequencing (NGS) on 19 fecal samples obtained from the eastern Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau, and successfully assembled 17 complete mitogenome sequences (~16,720 bp) and ...

Screening of SNP Loci of Growth-related Candidate Gene and Genetic Diversity of Five Populations Based On Microsatellite Markers in Fujian Oyster, Crassostrea angulata [PDF]
福建牡蛎(Crassostreaangulata,C.angulata)又名葡萄牙牡蛎,具有重要的经济价值和生态价值,但由于长期未经选育以及人工育苗的应用,导致牡蛎养殖出现经济性状衰退及死亡率逐年增高等现象,亟需加强种质资源保护,开展遗传改良研究。本研究利用单核苷酸多态性分子标记(singlenucleotidepolymorphism,SNP)对福建牡蛎生长相关的5个候选基因,即胰岛素相关多肽(insulinrelatedpeptides,IRPs)、ɑ-淀粉酶(ɑ-Amylase,ɑ-AMY ...
