Parallel divergent adaptation along replicated altitudinal gradients in Alpine trout

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
Background The European trout (Salmo trutta species complex) occurs across a very wide altitudinal range from lowland rivers to alpine streams. Historically, the major European river systems contained different, evolutionarily distinct trout lineages ...

Finite Element Analysis and Biomechanical Comparison of Short Posterior Spinal Instrumentation with Divergent Bridge Construct versus Parallel Tension Band Construct for Thoracolumbar Spine Fractures

Global Spine Journal, 2013
The ideal treatment for unstable thoracolumbar fractures remains controversial with posterior reduction and stabilization, anterior reduction and stabilization, combined posterior and anterior reduction and stabilization, and even nonoperative management

AlignMiner: a Web-based tool for detection of divergent regions in multiple sequence alignments of conserved sequences

Algorithms for Molecular Biology, 2010
Background Multiple sequence alignments are used to study gene or protein function, phylogenetic relations, genome evolution hypotheses and even gene polymorphisms. Virtually without exception, all available tools focus on conserved segments or residues.

Fimbriae reprogram host gene expression - Divergent effects of P and type 1 fimbriae.

PLoS Pathogens, 2019
Pathogens rely on a complex virulence gene repertoire to successfully attack their hosts. We were therefore surprised to find that a single fimbrial gene reconstitution can return the virulence-attenuated commensal strain Escherichia coli 83972 to ...

A divergent variant of Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 3 is present in California

Virology Journal, 2012
Background Grapevine leafroll-associated viruses are a problem for grape production globally. Symptoms are caused by a number of distinct viral species.

Genetic characterization of the complete genome of a highly divergent simian T-lymphotropic virus (STLV) type 3 from a wild Cercopithecus mona monkey

Retrovirology, 2009
Background The recent discoveries of novel human T-lymphotropic virus type 3 (HTLV-3) and highly divergent simian T-lymphotropic virus type 3 (STLV-3) subtype D viruses from two different monkey species in southern Cameroon suggest that the diversity and

Rates of Divergent Pharmacogenes in a Psychiatric Cohort of Inpatients with Depression—Arguments for Preemptive Testing

Journal of Xenobiotics, 2022
Background: The international drug agencies annotate pharmacogenes for many years. Pharmacogenetic testing is thus far only established in few settings, assuming that only few patients are actually affected by drug-gene interactions.

Detection of divergent genes in microbial aCGH experiments

BMC Bioinformatics, 2006
Background Array-based comparative genome hybridization (aCGH) is a tool for rapid comparison of genomes from different bacterial strains. The purpose of such analysis is to detect highly divergent or absent genes in a sample strain compared to an index ...

Divergent vs Parallel Screw Configurations for Subtalar Arthrodesis: Comparing Clinical Outcomes

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2022
Category: Ankle Arthritis; Hindfoot Introduction/Purpose: Subtalar arthrodesis is a frequently performed surgery used to treat several hindfoot pathologies. Rigid fixation is essential for successful fusion and percutaneous screws are most commonly used.
