Population Genomics Informs Resilience and Vulnerability of Habitat-Building Coralline Algae. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Maerl beds, formed by free‐living coralline red algae, are biodiversity‐rich and carbon‐storing habitats of high conservation value but remain understudied at the genomic level. Here, we present the first draft genomes and population genomic analyses for two dominant maerl‐forming species in the north‐east Atlantic, Phymatolithon calcareum and

Linkage Mapping vs. Association: A Comparison of Two RADseq-Based Approaches to Identify Markers for Homomorphic Sex Chromosomes in Large Genomes. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Reliable tools for the identification of genetic sex are invaluable in many fields of biology, but their design requires knowledge of sex‐linked sequences, which is lacking in many taxa. Restriction‐site‐associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) is widely used to identify sex‐linked markers, but multiple distinct strategies are employed, and it is ...

Characterization of a quail suspension cell line for production of a fusogenic oncolytic virus
Abstract The development of efficient processes for the production of oncolytic viruses (OV) plays a crucial role regarding the clinical success of virotherapy. Although many different OV platforms are currently under investigation, manufacturing of such viruses still mainly relies on static adherent cell cultures, which bear many challenges ...

The identity of Lithospermum rochelii, so far known only from its type locality (Bulgaria, hills in Plovdiv town), remained hitherto uncertain. Our examination of its original material and re‐collection of the species from its locus classicus in Plovdiv town revealed its identity with Lithospermum glandulosum (syn.

Summary Karyological characteristics are among the traits underpinning the invasion success of vascular plants. Using 11 049 species, we tested the effects of genome size and ploidy levels on plant naturalization (species forming self‐sustaining populations where they are not native) and invasion (naturalized species spreading rapidly and having ...

The karyotype of the Amu Darya sturgeon, Pseudoscaphirhynchus kaufmanni (Actinopterygii: Acipenseriformes: Acipenseridae) [PDF]
Background. Karyological studies of acipenserid fishes are of great importance because they present the only direct method to evaluate their ploidy levels for further research on polyploid evolution in these fishes. They are also important for prediction

New chromosome counts on Rubiaceae from Africa and the Western Indian Ocean islands
Cytological studies can provide important insights into circumscription and relationships within plant groups. Nevertheless, there is a considerable lack of cytological information, especially for large and complex groups such as the coffee family (Rubiaceae) and for plants from Africa and the Western Indian Ocean islands. In the present study, 110 new

Notes on Insect Injection, Anesthetization, and Bleeding. [PDF]
(excerpt) In recent years there has been a burgeoning interest in insect cytogenetics, sometimes involving in vivo cultures of haematocytes for chromosomal analysis.
