Introgression Breeding in Barley: Perspectives and Case Studies

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Changing production scenarios resulting from unstable climatic conditions are challenging crop improvement efforts. A deeper and more practical understanding of plant genetic resources is necessary if these assets are to be used effectively in developing

Contracaecum sp. larvae (Nematoda: Anisakidae) parasitizing Astyanax lacustris (Lütken, 1875) (Characiformes, Characidae) and Geophagus brasiliensis (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824) (Cichliformes, Cichlidae) in the Pardo River, São Paulo State, southeast Brazil [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Astyanax lacustris (n = 26) and Geophagus brasiliensis (n = 28) were collected from two sampling sites along the Pardo River, in Botucatu, São Paulo, Brazil, and examined for parasites.

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms, mapping and association analysis of 1-FFT-A1 gene in wheat

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
Fructans are major nonstructural carbohydrates in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Fructan 1-fructosyltransferase (1-FFT) is the key enzyme in fructan biosynthesis. In the present study, 96 sequence variants were detected in the 1-FFT-A1 gene among 26 wheat

Phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) haplotypes are associated with increased risk of gastric cancer in Kashmir Valley

The Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology, 2014
Background/Aim: Phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) plays a crucial role in carcinogenesis and progression of several types of cancers. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, rs2274223) in PLCE1 has been identified as a novel susceptibility locus.

Minimum error correction-based haplotype assembly: considerations for long read data

, 2020
The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is the most widely studied type of genetic variation. A haplotype is defined as the sequence of alleles at SNP sites on each haploid chromosome.

Disease progression in Plasmodium knowlesi malaria is linked to variation in invasion gene family members. [PDF]

, 2014
Emerging pathogens undermine initiatives to control the global health impact of infectious diseases. Zoonotic malaria is no exception. Plasmodium knowlesi, a malaria parasite of Southeast Asian macaques, has entered the human population. P.
