High‐throughput multispecies quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays to study the effects of acute thermal stress in three species of Acipenser sturgeon

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fishes experience thermal stress in their natural environment that can be caused by natural or anthropogenic factors and can directly affect their physiology. In this study, we developed a multispecies OpenArray™ qPCR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) ‘chip’ to measure the effects of acute thermal stress on the mRNA response of ...

Prospects of multipurpose biomonitoring for fisheries assessment based on environmental nucleic acids

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Methods using environmental nucleic acids have become highly effective for monitoring aquatic biodiversity, with an array of suitable use cases, including metrics for fisheries assessment. Traditional methods for assessing fish populations often rely on invasive techniques with limited spatial and temporal coverage.

SegH and Hef: two novel homing endonucleases whose genes replace the mobC and mobE genes in several T4-related phages

, 2005
T4 contains two groups of genes with similarity to homing endonucleases, the seg-genes (similarity to endonucleases encoded by group I introns) containing GIY-YIG motifs and the mob-genes (similarity to mobile endonucleases) containing H-N-H motifs.

Pentatricopeptide repeat proteins in crops: Advances in functional mechanisms and breeding applications

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Pentatricopeptide repeat proteins coordinate nucleus‐organelle communication by modulating RNA metabolism within chloroplasts and mitochondria. This review highlights how they control critical processes like photosynthesis, seed development, fertility restoration, and stress survival in crops, and explores their potential as programmable tools for RNA ...

Restriction endonucleases that resemble a component of the bacterial DNA repair machinery

, 2007
It has long been known that most Type II restriction endonucleases share a conserved core fold and similar active-sites. The same core folding motif is also present in the MutH protein, a component of the bacterial DNA mismatch repair machinery.

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.

Fine‐tuning quantitative agronomic traits by manipulating gene copy number in rice

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Although plant pan‐genome studies have revealed extensive copy number variations, their phenotypic consequences remain poorly understood. Here, we manipulated the copy number of OsMADS18 in rice (Oryza sativa) cv ‘Hitomebore’ using the CRISPR/Cas9 system.
