β-Glucan is a major growth substrate for human gut bacteria related to Coprococcus eutactus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A clone encoding carboxymethyl cellulase activity was isolated during functional screening of a human gut metagenomic library using Lactococcus lactis MG1363 as heterologous host.

Day-to-day dynamics of commensal Escherichia coli in Zimbabwean cows evidence temporal fluctuations within a host-specific population structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
To get insights into the temporal pattern of commensal Escherichia coli populations, we sampled the feces of four healthy cows from the same herd in the Hwange District of Zimbabwe daily over 25 days. The cows had not received antibiotic treatment during

Deciphering the mode of action and position of genetic variants impacting on egg number in broiler breeders

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background Aim of the present study was first to identify genetic variants associated with egg number (EN) in female broilers, second to describe the mode of their gene action (additive and/or dominant) and third to provide a list with implicated ...

A possible dominant white gene in Jersey cattle [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2001
A white heifer ("Snow") was born in 1991 from coloured registered Jersey parents. She produced six calves sired by coloured Jersey bulls: three white bull calves, two white heifer calves, and one coloured bull calf. One of the white bull calves was mated with 40 Hereford x Friesian yearling heifers (white face, predominantly black body with some white ...

Oakleaf: an S locus-linked mutation of Primula vulgaris that affects leaf and flower development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
•In Primula vulgaris outcrossing is promoted through reciprocal herkogamy with insect-mediated cross-pollination between pin and thrum form flowers. Development of heteromorphic flowers is coordinated by genes at the S locus.

Variation of Dominance of Newly Arisen Adaptive Genes [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1997
Newly arisen adaptive alleles such as insecticide resistance genes represent a good opportunity to investigate the theories put forth to explain the molecular basis of dominance and its possible evolution. Dominance levels of insecticide resistance conferred by insensitive alleles of the acetylcholinesterase gene were analyzed in five resistant strains

A Joint Segregation Analysis of the Inheritance of Fertility Restoration for Cytoplasmic Male Sterility in Pepper

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2019
A cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) system is one of the most efficient ways to produce F1 hybrid seeds in pepper (Capsicum annuum). Restorer-of-fertility (Rf) genes are a critical component within the CMS/Rf system.

The genetics of a “femaleness/maleness” score in cardiometabolic traits in the UK biobank

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
We recently devised continuous “sex-scores” that sum up multiple quantitative traits, weighted by their respective sex-difference effect sizes, as an approach to estimating polyphenotypic “maleness/femaleness” within each binary sex.

The evolutionary dynamics of variant antigen genes in Babesia reveal a history of genomic innovation underlying host-parasite interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Babesia spp. are tick-borne, intraerythrocytic hemoparasites that use antigenic variation to resist host immunity, through sequential modification of the parasite-derived variant erythrocyte surface antigen (VESA) expressed on the infected red blood cell

The molecular genetic analysis of the expanding pachyonychia congenita case collection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Pachyonychia congenita (PC) is a rare autosomal dominant keratinizing disorder characterized by severe, painful, palmoplantar keratoderma and nail dystrophy, often accompanied by oral leucokeratosis, cysts and follicular keratosis.
