TALENs—an indispensable tool in the era of CRISPR: a mini review
Background Genome of an organism has always fascinated life scientists. With the discovery of restriction endonucleases, scientists were able to make targeted manipulations (knockouts) in any gene sequence of any organism, by the technique popularly ...

Selfing is the safest sex for Caenorhabditis tropicalis
Mating systems have profound effects on genetic diversity and compatibility. The convergent evolution of self-fertilization in three Caenorhabditis species provides a powerful lens to examine causes and consequences of mating system transitions.

Genetic variation at hair length candidate genes in elephants and the extinct woolly mammoth [PDF]
Background Like humans, the living elephants are unusual among mammals in being sparsely covered with hair. Relative to extant elephants, the extinct woolly mammoth, Mammuthus primigenius, had a dense hair cover and extremely long hair, which likely were

Mitochondrial genome evolution in species belonging to the Phialocephala fortinii s.l. - Acephala applanata species complex [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial (mt) markers are successfully applied in evolutionary biology and systematics because mt genomes often evolve faster than the nuclear genomes.
