Identification of the putative regulatory regions and candidate genes associated with backfat thickness and intramuscular fat content traits in Xiang pigs [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackfat thickness (BFT) and intramuscular fat (IMF) content reflect fat deposition and meat quality in pigs. Numerous genetic variations contribute to differences in BFT and IMF for different pig breeds.

Effect of Biofloc Culture on the Daily Rhythmicity of the Activity and Expression of Digestive Enzymes in Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus [PDF]
Aquaculture NutritionBiofloc technology (BFT) has recently attracted great attention due to minimal water exchange and reduced feed intake. This study aimed to recognize daily changes in the digestive physiology of Oreochromis niloticus between a traditional system and BFT ...

Companion cells with high florigen production express other small proteins and reveal a nitrogen-sensitive FT repressor [PDF]
eLifeThe precise onset of flowering is crucial for successful reproduction. In longer days, the florigen gene FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) is induced in specific leaf phloem companion cells in Arabidopsis.

Evaluation of the prevalence of enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis and the distribution bft gene subtypes in patients with diarrhea [PDF]
Anaerobe, 2010 The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) in the patients with diarrhea in our region and to assess the association between diarrhea and bft gene subtypes. The presence of ETBF and bft gene subtypes were investigated in 200 stool samples from patients with diarrhea, diagnosed as gastroenteritis,

Determination of bft Gene Subtypes in Bacteroides fragilis Clinical Isolates [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2007 ABSTRACT A rapid multiplex PCR approach was developed to detect the bft gene subtypes in Bacteroides fragilis clinical isolates. This technique could be used to look at the epidemiology of enterotoxigenic strains of B.

Association of a missense mutation in the positional candidate gene glutamate receptor-interacting protein 1 with backfat thickness traits in pigs [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2017 Objective Previously, we reported quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting backfat thickness (BFT) traits on pig chromosome 5 (SW1482–SW963) in an F2 intercross population between Landrace and Korean native pigs.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2022 SummaryPhosphatidylethanolamine‐binding protein (PEBP) genes regulate flowering and architecture in many plant species. Here, we study kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis, Ac) PEBP genes with homology to BROTHER OF FT AND TFL1 (BFT). CRISPR‐Cas9 was used to target AcBFT genes in wild‐type and fast‐flowering kiwifruit backgrounds.
