One Yeast, Sixteen Synthetic Chromosomes, Infinite Possibilities
Yeast, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The evolution of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, from a genetically tractable model organism to a chassis for genome‐scale engineering represents one of the most influential trajectories in eukaryotic biology. The Synthetic Yeast Genome Project (Sc2.0) embodies the current height of this trajectory, having now delivered functional ...

Genetic Tools in the Nakaseomyces clade for Evolutionary Comparisons of Signal Transduction Pathways
Yeast, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The genus Nakaseomyces provides four species that are closely related but have different characteristics. For example, N. glabratus (formerly known as Candida glabrata) is a common human pathogen, whereas N. bracarensis and N. nivariensis have been isolated in clinical settings but are not common human pathogens. N.

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.

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders
Insect Science, EarlyView.Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

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.

The use of deidentified organ donor testes for research
Andrology, EarlyView.Abstract Our knowledge of testis development and function mainly comes from research using mammalian model organisms, primarily the mouse. However, there are integral differences between men and other mammalian species regarding cellular composition and expression profiles during fetal and post‐natal testis development and in the mature testis ...

Present status of haploidy research in onion (Allium cepa) – A review
The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2019 Research on haploid induction and their subsequent utilization in basic and genomic research and breeding is still at its infancy due to paucity of research efforts, difficulties in various critical steps, large genome size and limited publications ...
