Organic farming and gene transfer from genetically modified crops [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
This is the final report of MAFF/Defra project OF0157. Genetically modified (GM) crops cannot be released into the environment and used as food, feed, medicines or industrial processing before they have passed through a rigorous and internationally ...

Development and application of KASP assays to differentiate between Sorghum bicolor, halepense, and their hybrids

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
A panel showing the morphological differences between Sorghum halepense (A), hybrids (B), and Sorghum bicolor (C) with a novel KASP‐based genetic assay capable of reliably distinguishing between them. Partially Created in BioRender. https://BioRender.com/1u30ukv Abstract BACKGROUND Sorghum bicolor and Sorghum halepense can readily hybridize, creating ...

Evolution of the Selfing Syndrome in Arabis alpina (Brassicaceae). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The transition from cross-fertilisation (outcrossing) to self-fertilisation (selfing) frequently coincides with changes towards a floral morphology that optimises self-pollination, the selfing syndrome.

Extending plant water‐use strategies to flowers: Evidence from trait correlations across plant organs

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Despite the importance of flowers to plant fitness, it remains unclear whether flowers display ecophysiological strategies and how floral traits are associated with leaf economic traits.

Gene flow in genetically modified wheat. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Understanding gene flow in genetically modified (GM) crops is critical to answering questions regarding risk-assessment and the coexistence of GM and non-GM crops. In two field experiments, we tested whether rates of cross-pollination differed between GM

The transformer gene controls sexual development in Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The transformer gene plays a key role in the genetic pathway for sexual development in Drosophila suzukii Abstract The genetic network of sex determination in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster was investigated in great detail. Such knowledge not only advances our understanding of the evolution and regulation of sexual dimorphism in insects ...

Duodichogamy and androdioecy in the Chinese Phyllanthaceae Bridelia tomentosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Flowering plants commonly separate male and female function in time, but rarely are the two stages synchronized within and among individuals. One such temporal mating system is duodichogamy in which each plant produces two batches of male flowers that ...

Functional validation of a white pupae minimal gene construct in Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
An intronless version of the white pupae (wp) gene was engineered to restore the wild type brown puparium color in white pupae phenotype mutants of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Functionality of the minimal gene version (mini‐wp) was verified in vivo, as one copy of mini‐wp successfully restored the wild type phenotype in homozygous ...

Quantitative exposure assessment for confinement of maize biogenic systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The development of transgenic crops as production platforms for biogenic agents will largely depend on the success of efforts to confine the genes and their expressed proteins in field environments.

Retinoic Acid Signalling Regulates Zebrafish Tooth Germ Repair Following Injury

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Retinoic acid signalling may regulate the repair processes in a tooth germ injury model using Tg(scpp5:Dendra2‐NTR) zebrafish and the nitroreductase (NTR)/metronidazole (MTZ) system. ABSTRACT Although the role of retinoic acid (RA) signalling in odontogenesis is well established, its involvement in the repair of injured tooth germs remains unclear.
