Combining Ability and Heterotic Groups for some New Whit Maize Inbred Lines [PDF]

Journal of Plant Production, 2021
The main objectives of this study was to estimate combining ability and heterotic groups for 16 white maize inbred lines using line × tester mating design.Thirty-two whitethree-way crosses resulting fromcrosses between 16 inbred lines with two testers(SC

Multiscale effects of heating and cooling on genes and gene networks [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
Most organisms must cope with temperature changes. This involves genes and gene networks both as subjects and agents of cellular protection, creating difficulties in understanding. Here, we study how heating and cooling affect expression of single genes and synthetic gene circuits in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Inheritance of Pod Length and Other Yield Components in Two Cowpea and Yard-Long Bean Crosses

Agronomy, 2021
This study determined the gene effects involved in the inheritance of pod length and other yield-related traits and relationships among traits in crosses between two cowpea lines (TVu 2280 and TVu 2027) and a yard-long bean (TVu 6642) line with long pods.

Gene–gene effects on central processing of aversive stimuli [PDF]

Molecular Psychiatry, 2007
Emotional reactivity and regulation are fundamental to human behavior. As inter-individual behavioral variation is affected by a multitude of different genes, there is intense interest to investigate gene-gene effects. Functional sequence variation at two genes has been associated with response and resiliency to emotionally unpleasant stimuli.

Comparison of the Effects of Early Pregnancy with Human Interferon, Alpha 2 (IFNA2), on Gene Expression in Bovine Endometrium [PDF]

, 2012
Interferon tau (IFNT), a type I IFN similar to alpha IFNs (IFNA), is the pregnancy recognition signal produced by the ruminant conceptus. To elucidate specific effects of bovine IFNT and of other conceptus-derived factors, endometrial gene expression ...

Driving Sustainable Popcorn Breeding for Drought Tolerance in Brazil

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Drought currently affects several regions worldwide and tends to be more frequent due to climate change. It might compromise food security and the economic structure related to agribusiness.

The Effect of Gene Conversion on the Divergence Between Duplicated Genes [PDF]

Genetics, 2004
Abstract Nonindependent evolution of duplicated genes is called concerted evolution. In this article, we study the evolutionary process of duplicated regions that involves concerted evolution. The model incorporates mutation and gene conversion: the former increases d, the divergence between two duplicated regions, while the latter ...

Quantitative fitness effects of infection in a gene‐for‐gene system [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2009
* It is often assumed that pathogen infection decreases plant fitness, thereby driving the evolution of plant resistance (R) genes. However, the impact of bacterial pathogens on fitness has been shown to be relatively subtle, ranging from positive to negative. * In this study, we focus on the Rps5-mediated resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana and examine
