A Rare Form of Microcephalic Primordial Dwarfism due to NSMCE2 Deficiency (Seckel Syndrome Type 10): A Report of Macular Involvement

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biallelic variants in NSMCE2 (MMS21), which encodes the SUMO E3 ligase subunit of the SMC5/6 chromatin‐maintenance complex, have recently been implicated in microcephalic primordial dwarfism (MPD), corresponding to Seckel syndrome type 10 (OMIM #617246).

Bulked segregant analysis reveals candidate genes responsible for dwarf formation in woody oilseed crop castor bean

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Plant dwarfism is a desirable agronomic trait in non-timber trees, but little is known about the physiological and molecular mechanism underlying dwarfism in woody plants. Castor bean (Ricinus communis) is a typical woody oilseed crop.

Real‐time monitoring of root dielectric properties for assessing crop plant damage caused by foliar application of glyphosate

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.

Tooth row allometry in domestic rabbits and nondomestic lagomorphs: Evidence for a decoupling of body and tooth row size changes in evolutionary time

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Domestic rabbits of different body sizes differ disproportionately in the length of their tooth row or the length of their diastema. Abstract In various domestic mammals, smaller breeds tend to have proportionally larger teeth, whereas this is not a universal trend across mammals.

Probing brown dwarf formation mechanisms with Gaia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
One of the fundamental questions in star formation is whether or not brown dwarfs form in the same way as stars, or more like giant planets. If their formation scenarios are different, we might expect brown dwarfs to have a different spatial distribution to stars in nearby star-forming regions.

Towards isolation of the Barley Green Revolution gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Development of semi-dwarf crop varieties has significantly increased the world food production, which is referred as 18Green Revolution 19. The semi-dwarfing varieties had better lodging resistance, higher harvest index, and more efficient utilization ...

Analysis of dwarfing genes in Zhepi 1 and Aizao 3: Two dwarfing gene donors in barley breeding in China

open access: yes, 2007
Inheritance of plant height was studied in Zhepi 1 and Aizao 3, two dwarfing gene donors used in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) breeding programs in China.

Genetic mapping and haploblock characterization of two novel major dwarfing loci in reciprocal Pyrus rootstock seedling families [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
US pear production is constrained by the lack of dwarfing and precocious rootstocks that revolutionized other fruit crops, such as apple. While quince is used as a rootstock in global pear production, concerns about potential graft incompatibility and ...

Rethinking brachycephaly: Anatomical implications and health considerations in lagomorphs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Brachycephaly in domestic rabbits is increasingly perceived by welfare organizations as associated with significant health complications, particularly oral pathologies. Despite this perception, comparative anatomical research into rabbit brachycephaly is limited compared to that of dogs and cats, compelling an in‐depth examination of its ...

Rice Dwarf Virus P2 Protein Hijacks Auxin Signaling by Directly Targeting the Rice OsIAA10 Protein, Enhancing Viral Infection and Disease Development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2016
The phytohormone auxin plays critical roles in regulating myriads of plant growth and developmental processes. Microbe infection can disturb auxin signaling resulting in defects in these processes, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood ...
