Efficient homology-based annotation of transposable elements using minimizers. [PDF]

Appl Plant Sci, 2023
Abstract Premise Transposable elements (TEs) make up more than half of the genomes of complex plant species and can modulate the expression of neighboring genes, producing significant variability of agronomically relevant traits. The availability of long‐read sequencing technologies allows the building of genome assemblies for plant species with large ...

Can honey bees be used to detect rare plants? Taking an eDNA approach to find the last plants in a weed eradication program

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1516-1526, November 2023., 2023
Study to determine if rare taxa can be detected using molecular methods in hive pollen collected from a nearby apiary. Honey bees were confirmed to visit the target taxa when abundant but were not detected in the hive pollen while they were rare. Abstract The detection of rare taxa, crucial to conservation and biosecurity, presents many challenges that

Legume‐wide comparative analysis of pod shatter locus PDH1 reveals phaseoloid specificity, high cowpea expression, and stress responsive genomic context

The Plant Journal, Volume 115, Issue 1, Page 68-80, July 2023., 2023
SUMMARY Pod dehiscence is a major source of yield loss in legumes, which is exacerbated by aridity. Disruptive mutations in “Pod indehiscent 1” (PDH1), a pod sclerenchyma‐specific lignin biosynthesis gene, has been linked to significant reductions in dehiscence in several legume species.

Unravelling the Genetic Mechanisms of Litter Traits in a Maternal Line of Pigs. [PDF]

J Anim Breed Genet
ABSTRACT Reproductive traits related to litter size are the main indicators of reproductive efficiency in pig production and are continuously evaluated for the selection of maternal lines. Several environmental and genetic factors are involved with the development of these traits.

Large genomic introgression blocks of Phaseolus parvifolius Freytag bean into the common bean enhance the crossability between tepary and common beans

Plant Direct, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The production of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), one of the most important sources of protein and minerals and one of the most consumed grain legumes globally, is highly affected by heat and drought constraints. In contrast, the tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A.

Military Dogs and Their Soldier Companions: The More‐than‐human Biopolitics of Leishmaniasis in Conflict‐torn Colombia

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 237-255, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Cutaneous leishmaniasis is a vector‐borne disease that produces growing skin ulcers. In Colombia, the transmitting phlebotomine sandfly is native to the same jungles that have been the primary theater of war. Although combatants are the most affected by leishmaniasis, military landmine detection dogs are also significantly impacted.

Seed coat color genetics and genotype × environment effects in yellow beans via machine‐learning and genome‐wide association

The Plant Genome, Volume 15, Issue 1, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is consumed worldwide, with strong regional preferences for seed appearance characteristics. Colors of the seed coat, hilum ring, and corona are all important, along with susceptibility to postharvest darkening, which decreases seed value.
