Homologous recombination mutants cause differing lethality between h− and h+ Schizosaccharomyces pombe strains due to mat1 heterochromatin

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Homologous recombination (HR) in Schizosaccharomyces pombe is essential when mating‐type switching–induced double‐strand breaks (DSBs) form at the mat1 locus. In h90 and h− strains, efficient mat1 DSB formation renders HR indispensable unless suppressors block these breaks.

An efficient and easy-to-use protocol for induction of haploids in cucumber through parthenogenic embryo development

Botanical Studies
Background Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is a model crop to study cell biology, including the development of haploids and doubled haploids in vegetable crops.

Vibratome Sectioning and Clearing for Easing Studies of Cassava Embryo Formation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
This work describes the application of clearing on vibratome sections to study the embryo formation in cassava. This procedure provides high-resolution images and reduces significantly the number of sections that need to be analyzed per ovule.

GSK3α‐mediated regulation of the RNA demethylase fat mass and obesity‐associated protein (FTO) during murine spermatogenesis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
FTO regulates mRNA stability and translational efficiency through its m6A‐demethylation activity. GSK3 functions as an upstream regulator of FTO, leading to its inhibition via phosphorylation. In male germ cells, FTO activity is kept in check by GSK3α.

Production of Doubled Haploids in Onion: A Review

Journal of Horticultural Sciences, 2014
Onion suffers from high inbreeding depression and, as a result, inbreds that are developed lack genotypic and phenotypic uniformity. Gynogenesis has emerged as a potential strategy to address this drawback.

Body size of male Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at introduction of a 5‐week LD12:12 winter signal influences their decision to mature early or smoltify

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sexual maturation of male Atlantic salmon post‐smolts (‘jacking’) is undesired in aquaculture and seems to occur due to the intensification in modern facilities. Maturation depends on internal and external factors (temperature, photoperiod, feed availability, energy levels, body size, genetic background) that act on the brain‐pituitary‐gonad ...

Bony fish genomes: Status and gaps

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bony fish constitute an exceptionally species‐rich group of aquatic vertebrates, comprising more than 95% of all living fish. The adaptive processes on the diversity of environments they inhabit make them a highly diverse group from taxonomic, morphological and evolutionary standpoints.

Microspore embryogenesis in vitro: the role of stresses

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2019
Gametic embryogenesis is one form of totipotency of plant cells, in which either male or female gametes are induced to form embryoids (sporophytes). Regeneration of haploid plants from embryoids and subsequent chromosome duplication result in doubled ...

ATXR5 and ATXR6 restrict meiotic crossover formation within heterochromatin in Arabidopsis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The Arabidopsis H3K27 mono‐methyltransferases ATXR5 and ATXR6 repress crossovers within meiotic heterochromatin, are required for heterochromatin condensation and H3K27me1 establishment, and specifically influence the maintenance of DNA methylation in meiocytes.
