Garlic (Allium sativum), an asexually propagated vegetable and medicinal crop, has abundant genetic variation. Genetic diversity evaluation based on molecular markers has apparent advantages since their genomic abundance, environment insensitivity, and ...

Investigating chromosomal structural variations in Musa acuminate using NGS approaches : [W077] [PDF]
Structural heterozygosity is thought to be one of the main causes of sterility in banana (Musa spp.) hybrids. These structural variations impact chromosomal segregation and recombination, limiting crossing possibilities and complicating genetic analyses.

Genetic markers in neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma is one of the most frequent solid pediatric tumors. Its clinical course and response to treatment are both markedly heterogenic. Such a varied spectrum demands genomic hallmarks to be established for the sake of identifying the molecular mechanisms, which initiate the tumor and lead to malignant progression.

Disruption of SETD3‐mediated histidine‐73 methylation by the BWCFF‐associated β‐actin G74S mutation
The β‐actin G74S mutation causes altered interaction of actin with SETD3, reducing histidine‐73 methylation efficiency and forming two distinct actin variants. The variable ratio of these variants across cell types and developmental stages contributes to tissue‐specific phenotypical changes. This imbalance may impair actin dynamics and mechanosensitive

Background Overweight is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk which is only partially explained by conventional risk factors. The objective of this study was to evaluate lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] plasma levels and apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a ...

Phenotypic class ratios as marker signs of different types of agamospermy [PDF]
This article focuses on the development of the method for the genetic classification of agamospermous reproduction types in plants using sugar beet as an example. The classification feasibility is ensured by the use of isozymes as genetic markers allowing the identification of all three phenotypic classes in the progeny of individual heterozygous ...

Analysis of DTC nutrigenetic services in Italy: state of the art, agreement to the ESHG statement and future outlooks [PDF]
Background: In both USA and Europe operate companies selling Direct-to-consumer genetic tests (DTC). These tests are offered to healthy people aiming to identify predispositions to complex diseases and to take preventive measures.

Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Use of unlinked genetic markers to detect population stratification in association studies.
We examine the issue of population stratification in association-mapping studies. In case-control studies of association, population subdivision or recent admixture of populations can lead to spurious associations between a phenotype and unlinked ...
