An Optimized and Efficient CRISPR/Cas9 System for the Endophytic Fungus Pestalotiopsis fici
Endophytic fungi are emerging as attractive producers of natural products with diverse bioactivities and novel structures. However, difficulties in the genetic manipulation of endophytic fungi limit the search of novel secondary metabolites.

Prospects for transgenesis in the chick [PDF]
Research to develop a useful method for genetic modification of the chick has been on-going since the first demonstrations in the mouse in the 1980s that genetic modification is an invaluable tool for the study of gene function. Manipulation of the chick

Identification of 5-Fluoro-5-Deoxy-Ribulose as a Shunt Fluorometabolite in Streptomyces sp. MA37
A fluorometabolite, 5-fluoro-5-deoxy-D-ribulose (5-FDRul), from the culture broth of the soil bacterium Streptomyces sp. MA37, was identified through a combination of genetic manipulation, chemo-enzymatic synthesis and NMR comparison.

Near-Complete Genome Assembly of Alternaria brassicae—A Necrotrophic Pathogen of Brassica Crops
Alternaria brassicae, a necrotrophic fungal pathogen, causes Alternaria blight, an important disease of brassica crops. Although many Alternaria spp. have been sequenced, no genome information is available for A. brassicae, a monotypic lineage within the

Laser microdissection as a new approach to prefertilization genetic diagnosis [PDF]
The genetic status of oocytes can be determined by polar body (PB) analysis. Following PB extraction, a genetic evaluation is performed. As each PB contains the complementary genetic material of the oocyte, PB analysis reveals information about its ...

In vivo genetic manipulation of inner ear connexin expression by bovine adeno-Associated viral vectors [PDF]
We have previously shown that in vitro transduction with bovine adeno-associated viral (BAAV) vectors restores connexin expression and rescues gap junction coupling in cochlear organotypic cultures from connexin-deficient mice that are models DFNB1 ...
