Wheat gene pool of Kyrgyzstan

Russian Journal of Genetics: Applied Research, 2013
A botanical and ecological study of locally collected material showed that wheat landraces are represented in a very wide variety of ecological and morphological forms scattered in different areas of Kyrgyzstan. In total, 60 subspecies of spring wheat belonging to 6 species are found in Kyrgyzstan.

Psoriasis, innate immunity, and gene pools

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2007
Recently, emphasis has shifted from T cells to innate (natural) immunity as the possible major culprit in psoriasis. All known elements of innate immune responses are up-regulated in psoriasis lesions, which must have a polygenetic origin. We hypothesize that urbanized populations have been under evolutionary pressure that selects for increased innate ...

Sampling Gene Pools

1976
The methodology of living plant collecting has changed very considerably in the last few decades. Not so long ago botanic gardens, arboreta and similar organisations considered that they were doing what was required of them if they grew a single accession of as many species as possible. Even if they possessed the facilities for conserving more than one

Gene pools in grain legumes

Economic Botany, 1984
The range of genetic resources available for the improvement of grain legumes varies greatly in both its extent and accessibility. This can be related to the biosystematic relationships and the geographic dispersion of the crops together with the evolutionary age of the taxa from which they arose and related taxa.

Deepening the Wheat Gene Pool

Journal of Crop Production, 1997
Summary For many crop species, genetic uniformity is a result of modern breeding and farming practices. Common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an exception, having been a genetically narrow species throughout its entire existence. This paper discusses the evolutionary bottlenecks through which today's wheat germplasm has descended, and the ways in ...

Sampling the mobile gene pool

Royal Society of London. Philosophical Transactions B. Biological Sciences, 2017
In biological systems, evolutionary innovations can spread not only fromparent to offspring (i.e. vertical transmission), but also ‘horizontally’ between individuals, who may or may not be related. Nowhere is this more apparent than in bacteria, where novel ecological traits can spread rapidly within and between species through horizontal gene transfer

Three gene pools, one baby

New Scientist, 2013
Three-parent babies could soon become a fact of life. The techniques are designed to prevent devastating mitochondrial diseases, which affect thousands of people. Whatever the UK's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority decides, there seems to be little doubt that the techniques will be used somewhere soon, whether they are regulated or not ...

Narcissus at the Gene Pool

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
In the new eugenics, the end of our species as we know it is eagerly anticipated. We are fast approaching an evolutionary dead end and only the miracles of genetic engineering will save us from extinction. But while the new eugenicists approach these innovations with joy and optimism, many others look to them with dread and repugnance.
