SEGREGATION DISTORTION AND CROSSING OVER IN MALES OF DROSOPHILA ANANASSAE. I: PRELIMINARY GENETIC ANALYSIS

open access: yesGenetics, 1971
ANDLER and NOVITSKI (1957) proposed the term “meiotic drive” (or segregation distortion) to describe a condition which leads to unequal segregation of the two alleles present in a heterozygote in consequence of certain aberrant mechanisms during meiosis.

Mechanisms of IgE‐mediated food allergy and the role of allergen‐specific B cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Food allergy arises when allergen‐specific B cells preferentially produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against harmless foods. This article explains the mechanisms driving IgE‐mediated reactions, highlights the central role of these B cells, and discusses how natural tolerance (NT) and oral immunotherapy (OIT) can reshape allergic immune responses.

Genetic Diversity and Differentiation at Structurally Varying MHC Haplotypes and Microsatellites in Bottlenecked Populations of Endangered Crested Ibis

open access: yesCells, 2019
Investigating adaptive potential and understanding the relative roles of selection and genetic drift in populations of endangered species are essential in conservation.

Different evolutionary paths to complexity for small and large populations of digital organisms

open access: yes, 2016
A major aim of evolutionary biology is to explain the respective roles of adaptive versus non-adaptive changes in the evolution of complexity. While selection is certainly responsible for the spread and maintenance of complex phenotypes, this does not ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

A wheat chromosome segment substitution line series supports characterization and use of progenitor genetic variation

open access: yesThe Plant Genome
Genome‐wide introgression and substitution lines have been developed in many plant species, enhancing mapping precision, gene discovery, and the identification and exploitation of variation from wild relatives.

The role of plastid genes in a heterosis effect and the formation of morphophysiological traits in sunflower plants

open access: yesТруды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции, 2020
Background. The problem of nucleus-plastid interactions is obviously of theoretical and practical importance. However, the lack of knowledge in this area of plant research is, for the most part, caused by difficulties in isolating the contribution of the

The Future of Cydia pomonella Granulovirus in Biological Control of Codling Moth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Resistance of codling moth against Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) products has alarmed growers, extension services, the CpGV producers and the scientific community.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Floral biology and reproductive mechanisms of Mussambê (Cleome spinosa Jacq) aiming at the plant breeding [PDF]

open access: yesBiotemas, 2007
Some plants from Cleome genus in Capparaceae family are used as medicinal and ornamental plants. The aim of this work was to study the fl oral biology and the reproductive mechanisms of C. spinosa to the plant breeding. Anthesis occurred between 17:30 to
