Advanced genetic tools for plant biotechnology

Nature Reviews Genetics, 2013
Basic research has provided a much better understanding of the genetic networks and regulatory hierarchies in plants. To meet the challenges of agriculture, we must be able to rapidly translate this knowledge into generating improved plants. Therefore, in this Review, we discuss advanced tools that are currently available for use in plant biotechnology

Transposable Bacteriophages as Genetic Tools

2017
Phage Mu is the paradigm of a growing family of bacteriophages that infect a wide range of bacterial species and replicate their genome by replicative transposition. This molecular process, which is used by other mobile genetic elements to move within genomes, involves the profound rearrangement of the host genome [chromosome(s) and plasmid(s)] and can

Self‐Insurance With Genetic Testing Tools

Journal of Risk and Insurance, 2015
AbstractThe development of genetic testing creates opportunities to better target disease prevention actions. In this article, we determine how the genetic information modifies self‐insurance efforts in different health insurance market equilibria with adverse selection.

Population Genetic Tools: Application to Cancer

Seminars in Oncology, 2007
The availability of a reference human genome sequence, an increasingly dense catalog, knowledge of common genetic variation, and new developments in technology present an unprecedented opportunity to systematically explore the genetic basis of complex human diseases such as cancer.

Genetic Assembly Tools for Synthetic Biology

2011
With the completion of myriad genome sequencing projects, genetic bioengineering has expanded into many applications including the integrated analysis of complex pathways, the construction of new biological parts and the redesign of existing, natural biological systems.

ARABIDOPSIS AS A GENETIC TOOL

Annual Review of Genetics, 1975
The introduction of a new organism into the repertoire of genetic tools is justified on the basis of its aptness for investigations of new problems, for new approaches to old problems, or for testing the relevance of principles discovered in phylo­ genetically distant groups. In this review many important publications must be omitted to provide for the

Drosophila Melanogaster: A Genetic Tool

2000
At a first glance, the lens eyes of mammals and compound eyes of insects seem to have nothing in common except that they sense the light. Therefore, one of the most striking surprises in modern biology was the demonstration that the expression of a mouse gene required for eye formation can induce an insect eye when expressed, from a transgene, in the ...

Power tools for human genetics

Nature Genetics, 2005
Genome-wide association studies have the potential to identify systematically the contributions of common genetic variants to human disease, but the tools to carry out such studies have been incomplete. Assessments of the HapMap resource suggest that the tools are now in hand, but care is required in their use for study design, analysis and ...
