Accounting for the nuclear and mito genome in dairy cattle breeding—A simulation study [PDF]
Mitochondria play a significant role in numerous cellular processes through proteins encoded by both the nuclear genome (nDNA) and mito genome (mDNA), and increasing evidence shows that traits of interest might be affected by mito-nuclear interactions ...

Accounting for nuclear- and mito-genome in genetic evaluation and breeding of dairy cattle [PDF]
Studies indicate that mito-genome variation impacts phenotypes in a range of species. In dairy cattle up to 5% of phenotypic variation for milk production has been associated to mito-genome variation. Bearing in mind that milk production is a very energy demanding process that inflicts systemic physiological changes, it is logical to expect that it ...

Gatekeepers of the Germ Line: How Mitochondria Shape Reproductive Evolution in Metazoans [PDF]
Mitochondria play essential roles for animal reproduction, influencing not only cellular energetics but also gamete quality, inheritance and evolutionary patterns.

AbstractMitochondria play a significant role in numerous cellular processes through proteins encoded by both nuclear genome (nDNA) and mito genome (mDNA). While the variation in nDNA is influenced by mutations and recombination of parental genomes, the variation in mDNA is solely driven by mutations.

COMPARATIVE MITO-GENOMIC ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENT SPECIES OF GENUS CANIS BY USING DIFFERENT BIOINFORMATICS TOOLS [PDF]
In the current study, the mitochondrial genes sequence for COI, Cyt b and 16s rRNA of seven species found in different parts of the world were retrieved from NCBI Gene Bank while, PCR products of COI, Cyt b and 16s rRNA genes obtained from C. lupus and C.aureus present in Pakistan were sequenced and aligned for comparison.

Direct evidence of CRISPR-Cas9-mediated mitochondrial genome editing
Pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations can cause a variety of human diseases. The recent development of genome-editing technologies to manipulate mtDNA, such as mitochondria-targeted DNA nucleases and base editors, offer a promising way for ...

Evolved genetic and phenotypic differences due to mitochondrial-nuclear interactions. [PDF]
The oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) pathway is responsible for most aerobic ATP production and is the only pathway with both nuclear and mitochondrial encoded proteins. The importance of the interactions between these two genomes has recently received
