Dynamics of circulating tumour DNA in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma patients

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary The response to salvage chemotherapy in relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is poor, and data on circulating tumour deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) in this setting are limited. We evaluated ctDNA dynamics in 29 patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL who received platinum‐based salvage chemotherapy at the University

Parental ploidy strongly affects offspring fitness in heteroploid crosses among three cytotypes of autopolyploid Jacobaea carniolica (Asteraceae).

PLoS ONE, 2013
Reproductive interactions among cytotypes in their contact zones determine whether these cytotypes can co-exist and form stable contact zones or not. In autopolyploids, heteroploid cross-compatibilities might depend on parental ploidy, but tests of this ...

Analysis of horizontal genetic transfer in red algae in the post-genomics age [PDF]

, 2013
The recently published genome of the unicellular red alga revealed a gene-rich, intron-poor species, which is surprising for a free-living mesophile. Of the 8,355 predicted protein-coding regions, up to 773 (9.3%) were implicated in horizontal genetic ...

A century of theories of balancing selection

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Plant Domestication Affects the Oviposition Behavior and Performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a Parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry

A common pathway controls cell size in the sepal and leaf epidermis leading to a nonrandom pattern of giant cells.

PLoS Biology
Arabidopsis leaf epidermal cells have a wide range of sizes and ploidies, but the mechanisms patterning their size and spatial distribution remain unclear.

Pathways to polyploidy : indications of a female triploid bridge in the alpine species Ranunculus kuepferi (Ranunculaceae) [PDF]

, 2017
Polyploidy is one of the most important evolutionary processes in plants. In natural populations, polyploids usually emerge from unreduced gametes which either fuse with reduced ones, resulting in triploid offspring (triploid bridge), or with other ...

Genetic Determinants of Peanut‐Specific IgG4 Levels in the Context of Sustained Oral Peanut Exposure in the LEAP Study

Immunology, EarlyView.
A cumulative genetic score based on IgG4‐associated variants explains a substantial proportion of variance in psIgG4 levels during sustained peanut consumption, highlighting strong gene‐by‐environment interactions. Our findings suggest that early, sustained peanut consumption, in combination with genetic factors, promotes a protective immune response ...

Implications of hybridisation and cytotypic differentiation in speciation assessed by AFLP and plastid haplotypes : a case study of Potentilla alpicola La Soie [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Hybridisation is presumed to be an important mechanism in plant speciation and a creative evolutionary force often accompanied by polyploidisation and in some cases by apomixis. The Potentilla collina group constitutes a particularly suitable
