Conclusive evidence for hexasomic inheritance in chrysanthemum based on analysis of a 183 k SNP array

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background Cultivated chrysanthemum is an outcrossing hexaploid (2n = 6× = 54) with a disputed mode of inheritance. In this paper, we present a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) selection pipeline that was used to design an Affymetrix Axiom array with

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Isozymes in plant breeding

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1982
Not available – first paragraph follows: Isozymes are multiple molecular forms of an enzyme derived from a tissue of an organism. They are usually separated when an electric charge causes their migration through a gel, and they are visualized when the ...

Mutation of PUB21 in tomato leads to reduced susceptibility to necrotrophic fungi

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Background Cultivated tomato is susceptible to necrotrophic pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Alternaria solani. No dominant resistance against these pathogens has been reported in wild relatives of tomato.

Copy number variation of Ppd-B1 is the major determinant of heading time in durum wheat

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2019
Background Heading time is an important adaptive trait in durum wheat. In hexaploid wheat, Photoperiod-1 (Ppd) loci are essential regulators of heading time, with Ppd-B1 conferring photoperiod insensitivity through copy number variations (CNV).

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Stability and Adaptability of Triticale (Triticosecale Wittm. ex A. Camus) Varieties Across Environmental Conditions in the Highlands of Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy
Triticale combines the yield and quality of wheat with the disease resistance of rye. To choose stable and reasonably high-yielding varieties and to estimate the degree of variation and environmental interactions, five triticale varieties and one local ...
