The BioColour Library

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The attraction of adopting natural and bio‐based colourants in applications has grown, but their use suffers from a lack of certification bodies, standards and reference data. In the BioColour project, we are developing an open database and tools for the characterisation, authentication and quality analysis of biocolourant sources ...

Use of natural trophic resources by Eastern oysters and Pacific oysters of different ploidy

Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2021
Ploidy manipulation, such as triploidy, in farmed oysters has been used as a tool to enhance oyster quality throughout all seasons because triploid oysters allocate less energy to gametogenesis, and therefore are deemed better performers than fertile ...

TRAPPC2l Participates in Male Germ Cell Development by Regulating Cell Division

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Trappc2l is crucial for maintaining the quiescent state of male gonocytes. In the absence of Trappc2l, the quiescent state of gonocytes is disrupted, leading to premature and abnormal initiation of meiosis, which consequently results in subsequent abnormalities in sperm development. ABSTRACT TRAPPC2L is a core subunit of the Transport Protein Particle (

In Vivo Fast Induction of Homogeneous Autopolyploids via Callus in Sour Jujube (Ziziphus acidojujuba Cheng et Liu)

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2016
Polyploidization has been demonstrated as a very effective approach in fruit tree improvement. Sour jujube (Ziziphus acidojujuba Cheng et Liu) is a promising diploid wild, traditional fruit species (2n = 2x = 24) that is rich in vitamin C, which is the ...

Chromosome-breakage genomic instability and chromothripsis in breast cancer [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Chromosomal breakage followed by faulty DNA repair leads to gene amplifications and deletions in cancers. However, the mere assessment of the extent of genomic changes, amplifications and deletions may reduce the complexity of genomic data ...

Reproductive biology of invasive grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) in two North American systems

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) are nonnative, herbivorous freshwater fish that represent an ecological threat in North American waters. However, data are limited on reproductive biology specific to wild populations in midwestern North America, despite recent concern for grass carp establishment within the Great Lakes.

A seasonal study on the microbiomes of Diploid vs. Triploid eastern oysters and their denitrification potential

iScience
Summary: Oyster reefs are hotspots of denitrification mediated removal of dissolved nitrogen (N), however, information on their denitrifier microbiota is scarce.

Transcriptional profiles underlying parent-of-origin effects in seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana

BMC Plant Biology, 2010
Background Crossing plants of the same species but different ploidies can have dramatic effects on seed growth, but little is known about the alterations to transcriptional programmes responsible for this.
