Detection of Hub QTLs Underlying the Genetic Basis of Three Modules Covering Nine Agronomic Traits in an F₂ Soybean Population

Agronomy, 2022
Deciphering the genetic basis underlying agronomic traits is of importance for soybean improvement. However, covariation, modulated by genetic correlations between complicated traits via hub QTLs, commonly affects the efficiency and accuracy of soybean ...

The development of a porcine 50K SNP panel using genotyping by target sequencing and its application

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
Genotyping by target sequencing (GBTS) integrates the advantages of silicon-based technology (high stability and reliability) and genotyping by sequencing (high flexibility and cost-effectiveness). However, GBTS panels are not currently available in pigs.

Concordant geographic and genetic structure revealed by genotyping‐by‐sequencing in a New Zealand marine isopod

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Population genetic structure in the marine environment can be influenced by life‐history traits such as developmental mode (biphasic, with distinct adult and larval morphology, and direct development, in which larvae resemble adults) or habitat ...

Analysis of Genetic Diversity and Development of A Core Collection in Walnut (Juglans regia L.) Germplasm Native to China via Genotyping-by-Sequencing

Agronomy, 2023
Popular knowledge of the population structure and genetic diversity of a plant species is essential for designing improvement strategies. The genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach has been used to simplify complex genomes and has become a popular high ...

Strong isolation by distance among local populations of an endangered butterfly species (Euphydryas aurinia)

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The marsh fritillary (Euphydryas aurinia) is a critically endangered butterfly species in Denmark known to be particularly vulnerable to habitat fragmentation due to its poor dispersal capacity.

Use of biostimulants for water stress mitigation in two durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) genotypes with different drought tolerance

Plant Stress
Agriculture is facing complex and unprecedented challenges, such as climate change and global population growth, associated with the increase of food demand. Durum wheat (DW) is a strategic crop for food security in the Mediterranean region. In this work,

Genotyping 1000 yeast strains by next-generation sequencing

BMC Genomics, 2013
Background The throughput of next-generation sequencing machines has increased dramatically over the last few years; yet the cost and time for library preparation have not changed proportionally, thus representing the main bottleneck for sequencing large

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Genome-wide investigations reveal the population structure and selection signatures of Nigerian cattle adaptation in the sub-Saharan tropics

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Cattle are considered to be the most desirable livestock by small scale farmers. In Africa, although comprehensive genomic studies have been carried out on cattle, the genetic variations in indigenous cattle from Nigeria have not been fully ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.
