Association Genetics in Populus Reveal the Allelic Interactions of Pto-MIR167a and Its Targets in Wood Formation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial regulatory roles in plant growth and development by interacting with RNA molecules, including messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs); however, the genetic networks of miRNAs and their targets influencing

Dissection of Insertion–Deletion Variants within Differentially Expressed Genes Involved in Wood Formation in Populus

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Short insertions and deletions (InDels) are one of the major genetic variants and are distributed widely across the genome; however, few investigations of InDels have been conducted in long-lived perennial plants.

Unraveling the phenotypic and genomic background of behavioral plasticity and temperament in North American Angus cattle

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2023
Background Longitudinal records of temperament can be used for assessing behavioral plasticity, such as aptness to learn, memorize, or change behavioral responses based on affective state. In this study, we evaluated the phenotypic and genomic background
