Data Mining of the Coffee Rust Genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The genomes of nine isolates of _Hemileia vastatrix_, the causal agent of coffee leaf rust were sequenced by Illumina and 454. Quality control, cleaning and _de novo_ assemblies of data were performed.

Quantifying Soil Microbiome Abundance by Metatranscriptomics and Complementary Molecular Techniques—Cross‐Validation and Perspectives

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Linking meta‐omics and biogeochemistry approaches in soils has remained challenging. This study evaluates the use of an internal RNA extraction standard and its potential for making quantitative estimates of a given microbial community size (biomass) in soil metatranscriptomics. We evaluate commonly used laboratory protocols for RNA processing,

Addition of plant-growth-promoting Bacillus subtilis PTS-394 on tomato rhizosphere has no durable impact on composition of root microbiome

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2017
Background Representatives of the genus Bacillus are increasingly used in agriculture to promote plant growth and to protect against plant pathogens. Unfortunately, hitherto the impact of Bacillus inoculants on the indigenous plant microbiota has been ...

Mouse genome engineering uncovers 18 genes dispensable for male reproduction

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Male infertility is an intricate multifactorial disease involving the interplay between genetic and environmental factors. Genetic anomalies account for more than 15% of all male infertility cases; however, diagnosing them exhibits enormous challenges due to variable symptomatic presentations and limited knowledge of gene functions.

Minimum Contradiction Matrices in Whole Genome Phylogenies

open access: yesEvolutionary Bioinformatics, 2008
Minimum contradiction matrices are a useful complement to distance-based phylogenies. A minimum contradiction matrix represents phylogenetic information under the form of an ordered distance matrix Y i , j n . A matrix element corresponds to the distance

5SRNAdb: an information resource for 5S ribosomal RNAs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ribosomal 5S RNA (5S rRNA) is the ubiquitous RNA component found in the large subunit of ribosomes in all known organisms. Due to its small size, abundance and evolutionary conservation 5S rRNA for many years now is used as a model molecule in studies on

Beyond Genetic Indicators: How Reproductive Mode and Hybridisation Challenge Freshwater Mussel Conservation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic diversity is a fundamental aspect of biodiversity, yet it is rarely assessed and monitored in conservation practice. Unionid freshwater mussels exemplify the dramatic loss of biodiversity in freshwater ecosystems, yet genomic data for these ecologically important species remain scarce.

Automatic generation of pseudoknotted RNAs taxonomy

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2023
Background The ability to compare RNA secondary structures is important in understanding their biological function and for grouping similar organisms into families by looking at evolutionarily conserved sequences such as 16S rRNA. Most comparison methods
