Parental Age, Inbreeding and Incubation Method Influence Extremely Low Hatching Success in the Ex‐Situ Population of the Extinct in the Wild Sihek

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Reproductive success rates are a key parameter determining the recovery potential of ex‐situ managed threatened species, with high rates often being required to produce offspring for wild releases while ensuring ex situ population viability. Here, we quantify reproductive success rates in the Extinct in the Wild sihek (Guam kingfisher) and find ...

Minisatellite Isolation and Minisatellite Molecular Marker Development in Citrus limon (L.) Osbeck

Data
Minisatellites are widespread tandem DNA repeats in the genome with a monomer length of 10 to 100 bp. The high variability of minisatellite loci makes them attractive for the development of molecular markers.

Terminal Restriction Fragments (TRF) Method to Analyze Telomere Lengths

Bio-Protocol, 2015
Chromosome ends - telomeres - are a focus of intensive research due to their importance for the maintenance of chromosome stability. Their shortening due to incomplete replication functions as a molecular clock counting the number of cell divisions, and ...

A new minisatellite-based scheme for the global surveillance of Xanthomonas citri pv. citri, the causal agent of Asiatic Citrus Canker. : S12O12 [PDF]

, 2012
Xanthomonas citri pv. citri (Xcc), the causal agent of Asiatic Citrus Canker, is an internationally major bacterial pathogen currently not reported from countries in the Mediterranean basin, including the EU. Some pathological diversity among strains was

Microhaplotype Methods Enable Relationship Inference in a Bottlenecked Mammalian Species

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) are among the most genetically depauperate mammals in the world. A near‐total population bottleneck in the 19th century, coupled with the breeding system of extreme polygyny, has challenged efforts to estimate individual reproductive success with genetic methods.

Clinically Irrelevant Terminal 16q21 Deletion Detected by NIPT Is Attributable to Inherited Fragility at FRA16B

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 2, Page 348-352, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Genome‐wide non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is a powerful tool for prenatal detection of the common aneuploidies causing Down‐, Edwards‐, and Patau syndrome. Its genome‐wide reach also enables the detection of unbalanced structural chromosomal abnormalities.

The architecture of the Plasmodiophora brassicae nuclear and mitochondrial genomes

Scientific Reports, 2019
Plasmodiophora brassicae is a soil-borne pathogen that attacks roots of cruciferous plants causing clubroot disease. The pathogen belongs to the Plasmodiophorida order in Phytomyxea. Here we used long-read SMRT technology to clarify the P.

Evaluation and selection of tandem repeat loci for a Brucella MLVA typing assay

BMC Microbiology, 2006
Background The classification of Brucella into species and biovars relies on phenotypic characteristics and sometimes raises difficulties in the interpretation of the results due to an absence of standardization of the typing reagents.

Bridging the Gap Between the Earth's Ionosphere and Plasmasphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
Abstract Cold plasma distribution in the ionosphere‐plasmasphere system governs wave‐particle interactions, plasma energization and loss, and radio wave propagation. A longstanding observational gap at altitudes ∼ ${\sim} $800–8,000 km has largely prevented studying the coupled dynamics of the two regions.

Analysis of a c₀t-1 library enables the targeted identification of minisatellite and satellite families in Beta vulgaris

BMC Plant Biology, 2010
Background Repetitive DNA is a major fraction of eukaryotic genomes and occurs particularly often in plants. Currently, the sequencing of the sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) genome is under way and knowledge of repetitive DNA sequences is critical for the ...
