A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Coalescence, genetic diversity in sexual populations under selection [PDF]
, 2013 In sexual populations, selection operates neither on the whole genome, which is repeatedly taken apart and reassembled by recombination, nor on individual alleles that are tightly linked to the chromosomal neighborhood. The resulting interference between

A view of Neandertal genetic diversity
Nature Genetics, 2000 In order to further study of the Neandertal mtDNA gene pool, we analyzed the amino acid composition and extent of amino acid racemization in 15 bones found in the Vindija Cave (Croatia). Seven samples proved to have a high content of amino acids, an amino acid composition similar to that of the contemporary bone, and a low level of racemization of ...

Phytohormone and Light Regulation of Chlorophyll Degradation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Degreening, due to the net loss of chlorophyll (Chl), is the most prominent symptom during the processes of leaf senescence, fruit ripening, and seed maturation. Over the last decade or so, extensive identifications of Chl catabolic genes (CCGs) have led

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Evolution and genetic diversity of Theileria [PDF]
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2014 Theileria parasites infect a wide range of domestic and wild ruminants worldwide, causing diseases with varying degrees of severity. A broad classification, based on the parasite's ability to transform the leukocytes of host animals, divides Theileria into two groups, consisting of transforming and non-transforming species.

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Genetic diversity and population structure of Peronosclerospora sorghi isolates of Sorghum in Uganda [PDF]
, 2018 Sorghum is the third most important staple cereal crop in Uganda after maize and millet. Downy mildew disease is one of the most devastating fungal diseases which limits the production and productivity of the crop.

Genetic variability and genetic diversity in sunflower
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016 One hundred and seventy four accessions of sunflower were evaluated in a randomized block design with two replications during Kharif 2010-11 at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Nandyal, Andhra Pradesh to investigate the extent of genetic variability and genetic diversity.
