Deciphering the chemical language of inbred and wild mouse conspecific scents

eLife
In most mammals, conspecific chemosensory communication relies on semiochemical release within complex bodily secretions and subsequent stimulus detection by the vomeronasal organ (VNO).

Revival of traditional agricultural systems – A multidisciplinary on‐farm survey of maize‐bean intercropping reveals unexpected competition effects on beans

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cereal‐legume intercropping is a promising strategy for sustainable agroecosystems, leveraging the biological complementarities between plant species to reduce the need for inputs while enhancing field biodiversity. Here, we focused on maize‐bean intercropping, which is experiencing a revival in conventional agricultural settings.

Characteristic visual phenotypes in Korean wild mice (KWM/Hym)

Laboratory Animal Research
Background In the last few decades, numerous efforts have been made to develop a better mouse model to overcome the current limitations of laboratory inbred mouse models such as have a weaker and simpler immune status. As part of these efforts, in Korea,

SNPs, short tandem repeats, and structural variants are responsible for differential gene expression across C57BL/6 and C57BL/10 substrains

Cell Genomics, 2022
Summary: Mouse substrains are an invaluable model for understanding disease. We compared C57BL/6J, which is the most commonly used inbred mouse strain, with eight C57BL/6 and five C57BL/10 closely related inbred substrains.

Muffled olfactory and sensory cues from the reproductive stage soybean selectively reduce oviposition of a major polyphagous herbivore, fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Fall armyworm (FAW) preferred ovipositing on vegetative‐stage soybeans. While ‘mother knows best’ may not apply in soybean‐FAW system, muffled cues in the reproductive stage could positively influence host success. Abstract BACKGROUND While the mother knows best/preference performance hypothesis has been well tested in natural ecosystems, how these ...

Resistance Evaluation of Radish (Raphanus sativus L.) Inbred Lines against Turnip mosaic virus

Research in Plant Disease, 2017
Leaves of twenties radish (Raphanus sativus L.) inbred lines were mechanically inoculated with Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) strain HY to evaluate TuMV resistance of the radish inbred lines.

An inbred strain of rats with a high incidence of squamous-cell carcinomas of the mouth.

British Journal of Cancer, 1980
Intra-oral squamous-cell carcinomas occurred in over 50% of the HMT inbred strain of rats. In the outbred stock from which it was derived the incidence was 5% or less, both when inbreeding was begun and after the inbred strain was fully established ...

Functional validation of a white pupae minimal gene construct in Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Insect Science, EarlyView.
An intronless version of the white pupae (wp) gene was engineered to restore the wild type brown puparium color in white pupae phenotype mutants of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Functionality of the minimal gene version (mini‐wp) was verified in vivo, as one copy of mini‐wp successfully restored the wild type phenotype in homozygous ...

A Natural Occurring Mouse Model with Adgrv1 Mutation of Usher Syndrome 2C and Characterization of its Recombinant Inbred Strains

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: Our laboratory discovered a Kunming mouse with enormous electroretinogram (ERG) defects. Its auditory brainstem response (ABR) threshold was significantly elevated and closely resembled the features of Usher syndrome (USH).

Absence of pregnancy-block in mice when stud and test males belong to an inbred strain.

Journal of Reproduction and Fertility, 1968
The recently-mated female mouse can be removed from her stud partner within a few hours of coitus and returned to him 24 hr later without disturbance to the pregnancy.
