The Escherichia coli gene pool

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2001
Wild Escherichia coli are superbly adapted to survive in the intestines of their mammalian hosts and in the environment. E. coli K12 derivative (MG1655) encodes 4288 potential genes that provide the background genetic framework of this species. Particular E.

Divergent gene pools in rice improvement

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1983
The objective of the present study was to investigate the genetic architecture of yield in diverse populations of rice. Multivariate analysis by Mahalanobis's D(2) statistic and canonical (vector) analysis revealed that panicle weight, days to maturity, plant height and seed size were the important forces contributing towards divergence.

Hevea gene pool for breeding

Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 2003
The conservation and utilization of allied gene resources is vital for the improvement of crop species. Rubber has been an undeniably beneficial commodity for the past 100 years. Progress in yield improvement over 70 years resulted in primary and hybrid clones with exceptional yielding abilities.

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 ...
