The Expansion of Animal MicroRNA Families Revisited

Life, 2015
MicroRNAs are important regulatory small RNAs in many eukaryotes. Due to their small size and simple structure, they are readily innovated de novo. Throughout the evolution of animals, the emergence of novel microRNA families traces key morphological ...

Plastome phylogeny and lineage diversification of Salicaceae with focus on poplars and willows

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Phylogenetic relationships and lineage diversification of the family Salicaceae sensu lato (s.l.) remain poorly understood. In this study, we examined phylogenetic relationships between 42 species from six genera based on the complete plastomes ...

The complete chloroplast genome of a hemiparasitic plant Tolypanthus maclurei (Loranthaceae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Parasitic plants often show changes in chloroplast genome size and gene content. Here we obtained the complete chloroplast genome of Tolypanthus maclurei, a hemiparasitic shrub of Loranthaceae, using genome skimming method. It is 123,581 bp in length and

An EST screen from the annelid Pomatoceros lamarckii reveals patterns of gene loss and gain in animals [PDF]

, 2009
Background. Since the drastic reorganisation of the phylogeny of the animal kingdom into three major clades of bilaterians; Ecdysozoa, Lophotrochozoa and Deuterostomia, it became glaringly obvious that the selection of model systems with extensive ...

Knockout of the Bcmo1 gene results in an inflammatory response in female lung, which is suppressed by dietary beta-carotene [PDF]

, 2010
Beta-carotene 15,15'-monooxygenase 1 knockout (Bcmo1 (-/-)) mice accumulate beta-carotene (BC) similarly to humans, whereas wild-type (Bcmo1 (+/+)) mice efficiently cleave BC.
