In vivo detection of lamellocytes in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
, 2009 Drosophila has recently become a powerful model organism for studies of innate immunity. The cellular elements of innate immunity in Drosophila, the hemocytes, have been characterized by morphological criteria, molecular markers, and cell-type-specific ...

High-Throughput Sequencing Strategy for Microsatellite Genotyping Using Neotropical Fish as a Model
Frontiers in Genetics, 2018 Genetic diversity and population studies are essential for conservation and wildlife management programs. However, monitoring requires the analysis of multiple loci from many samples. These processes can be laborious and expensive.

Genetic and genomic approaches for the discovery of parasite genes involved in antimalarial drug resistance [PDF]
, 2013 The biggest threat to the war on malaria is the continued evolution of drug resistance by the parasite. Resistance to almost all currently available antimalarials now exists in Plasmodium falciparum which causes the most suffering among all human malaria

Analysis of a database of DNA profiles of 734 hybrid tea rose varieties [PDF]
, 2009 Over 10,000 Hybrid Tea rose varieties have been described. The large number of varieties and the size of the reference collections may cause problems in DUS (Distinctiveness, Uniformity, and Stability) testing.

Isolation of Psoroptes scab mite microsatellite markers (Acari: Psoroptidae) [PDF]
, 2003 Nine microsatellite markers have been isolated from the scab mite,Psoroptes ovis. These markers have been tested for polymorphism in individual Psoroptes mites originating from two hosts, the European rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus, and sheep, Ovis ...

Molecular markers in glioma [PDF]
Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2017 Gliomas are the most malignant and aggressive form of brain tumors, and account for the majority of brain cancer related deaths. Malignant gliomas, including glioblastoma are treated with radiation and temozolomide, with only a minor benefit in survival time.

Evaluation of white spot syndrome virus variable DNA loci as molecular markers of virus spread at intermediate spatiotemporal scales [PDF]
, 2010 Variable genomic loci have been employed in a number of molecular epidemiology studies of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), but it is unknown which loci are suitable molecular markers for determining WSSV spread on different spatiotemporal scales ...

Rac1 activation links tau hyperphosphorylation and Aβ dysmetabolism in Alzheimer’s disease
Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2018 One of the earliest pathological features characterizing Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the loss of dendritic spines. Among the many factors potentially mediating this loss of neuronal connectivity, the contribution of Rho-GTPases is of particular interest.
