MOLECULAR TOOLS FOR DETECTING GENETIC DIVERSITY

open access: yesActa Horticulturae, 2000
The diversity that resides within living organisms, often referred to as biodiversity, is essential for sustained existence and provides the raw materials for agriculture, biotechnology and medicine. Both its conservation and utilisation require knowledge of existing variation. Molecular tools provide valuable data on diversity through their ability to

Advancing Genetic Tools in Streptococcus pneumoniae. [PDF]

open access: yesGenes (Basel), 2020
Streptococcus pneumoniae is the causative agent of a multitude of diseases, and further study into its pathogenies is vital. The pneumococcus is genetically malleable, and several tools are available to manipulate this pathogen. In this study, we attempted to utilize one such tool, the Sweet Janus cassette, to replace the capsule locus with other ...
