Unraveling the meiotic puzzle: chromosome count, meiotic behaviour, and reproductive challenges in Phlomis cashmeriana Royle ex Benth. from the Kashmir Himalaya

open access: yesFrontiers in Conservation Science
Meiotic stability is crucial for maintaining reproductive success and genetic diversity in plants, especially in montane regions like the Himalaya, where fluctuating environmental conditions can disrupt normal chromosome behavior.

Genetic diversity and pathogenicity of Blastocystis.

open access: yesAnnals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2018
Blastocystis is a unicellular, anaerobic protist which lives in the intestinal tract of diverse animals, including humans. It was found that the host specificity and the pathogenic potential of different isolates are correlated with sequence variations ...

Interaction vesicles as emerging mediators of host‐pathogen molecular crosstalk and their implications for infection dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

Genetic Selection and Conservation of Genetic Diversity* [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction in Domestic Animals, 2012
ContentsFor 100s of years, livestock producers have employed various types of selection to alter livestock populations. Current selection strategies are little different, except our technologies for selection have become more powerful. Genetic resources at the breed level have been in and out of favour over time.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Prokaryotic taxa play keystone roles in the soil microbiome associated with woody perennial plants in the genus Buxus

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
The microbiome associated with ornamental plants has largely been neglected, despite its potential for impacting plant health. This work characterized the composition, diversity, and microbial co‐associations in the soil microbiome associated with ...

A communal catalogue reveals Earth’s multiscale microbial diversity

open access: yesNature, 2017
The spontaneous deamination of cytosine is a major source of transitions from C•G to T•A base pairs, which account for half of known pathogenic point mutations in humans.

Protonophore activity of short‐chain fatty acids induces their intracellular accumulation and acidification

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The protonated form of butyrate, as well as other short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs), is membrane permeable. In acidic extracellular environments, this can lead to intracellular accumulation of SCFAs and cytosolic acidification. This phenomenon will be particularly relevant in acidic environments such as the large intestine or tumor microenvironments ...

Genetic diversity in a crop metapopulation [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 2009
The need to protect crop genetic resources has sparked a growing interest in the genetic diversity maintained in traditional farming systems worldwide. Although traditional seed management has been proposed as an important determinant of genetic diversity and structure in crops, no models exist that can adequately describe the genetic effects of seed ...
