Development of SSR Markers Linked to Stress Responsive Genes along Tomato Chromosome 3 (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

BioTech, 2022
This study aimed to develop novel SSR markers in tomato. Several BAC clones along chromosome 3 in tomato were selected based on their content. The criteria was the availability of genes, either directly or indirectly related to stress response (drought ...

Heterozygous Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism Genotypes at Heat Shock Protein 70 Gene Potentially Influence Thermo-Tolerance Among Four Zebu Breeds of Nigeria

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Genetic variants at heat shock protein 70 gene and their influence on heat stress (HS) tolerance were studied among selected Nigeria zebu, namely, 25 White Fulani (WF), 21 Sokoto Gudali (SG), 21 Red Bororo (RB), and 23 Ambala (AM).

Partial Inbreeding: Equilibrium Heterozygosity and the Heterozygosity Paradox [PDF]

Evolution, 1986
The effect of partial inbreeding on equilibrium populations has been extended to any degree of mating. As expected, for distantly related mates, the equilibrium levels of inbreeding and heterozygosity are not affected as much as by partial selfing. Formulas are also given for equilibrium levels of inbreeding and heterozygosity when two or more degrees ...

Monomorphism and heterozygosity [PDF]

Heredity, 1975
A myth about the relation between monomorphism and heterozygosity is dispelled: the observed relation provided no evidence for (or against) neutral mutations.

The age of heterozygosity [PDF]

AGE, 2006
Two mutant mouse models of longevity in which the loss of only one copy of the gene leads to a significantly increased lifespan have recently been described: Igf1r (+/-) and mclk1 (+/-). Igf1r encodes a transmembrane receptor kinase for the insulin-like growth factor-1, and mclk1 encodes a hydroxylase that is necessary for the biosynthesis of ...

Neutral genetic variation in adult Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) affects brain-to-body trade-off and brain laterality [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2017
Low levels of heterozygosity can have detrimental effects on life history and growth characteristics of organisms but more subtle effects such as those on trade-offs of expensive tissues and morphological laterality, especially of the brain, have not ...

Increased heterozygosity and allele variants are seen in Texel compared to Suffolk sheep [PDF]

, 2004
In this study, the Suffolk and Texel sheep breeds were compared for microsatellite marker heterozygosity throughout seven chromosomal regions in the sheep genome.

Chytrid fungus infection in alpine tree frogs is associated with individual heterozygosity and population isolation but not population-genetic diversity [PDF]

, 2020
Chytridiomycosis, a disease caused by the emerging fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has been implicated in the decline of over 500 amphibian species.

Genomic Insights into Cultivated Mexican Vanilla planifolia Reveal High Levels of Heterozygosity Stemming from Hybridization

Plants, 2022
Although vanilla is one of the most valuable spices, there is a lack of understanding of the genomic variability of the main vanilla producing species, Vanilla planifolia, within its cultivated origin, Mexico.
