LocoGSE, a sequence-based genome size estimator for plants
Extensive research has focused on exploring the range of genome sizes in eukaryotes, with a particular emphasis on land plants, where significant variability has been observed. Accurate estimation of genome size is essential for various research purposes,

A century of theories of balancing selection
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.

Hybridity of mainly asexually propagating duckweeds in genus Lemna – dead end or breakthrough?
Summary The cosmopolitan, mainly vegetatively propagating, organ‐reduced monocotyledonous aquatic duckweeds are the smallest and fastest growing angiosperms, distributed world‐wide and flower rarely in nature. Recently, we reported intra‐ and interspecific hybrids and ploidy variants in the genus Lemna.

What's new? PARP inhibitors are effective in patients with inactivating alterations in the BRCA1/2 genes across tumor types. However, the efficacy of PARP inhibitors in patients with other inactivated homologous recombination repair genes remains unclear. This knowledge gap and discrepancies in EMA/FDA approvals highlight the need for better biomarkers.

ABSTRACT Background Several genomic risk stratification tests are available to predict the risk of metastasis and mortality for prostate cancer patients at the time of diagnosis. However, the evidence supporting the clinical utility of genomic risk stratification tools is fragmented, posing challenges in assessing their real‐world clinical impact and ...

Abstract Solanum tuberosum L. (potato) is the world's most important vegetable crop, and developing improved cultivars is paramount for global food security. The efficacy of the genomic prediction models that accelerate breeding and genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) depends on large, high‐quality phenotypic datasets, which are often associated ...

Rapid Adaptation to Road Salts in a Freshwater Microbial Eukaryote
Road salt application is causing increased salinization of freshwater ecosystems. Using experimental evolution, we demonstrate that ciliates can quickly adapt to tolerate high salinities, but this adaptation may come at a cost to survival in the absence of salt.

Pathogenesis‐related Protein 1 (PR1) is a core component of plant innate immunity. We identified 33, 50, and 36 PR1 genes in Ipomoea batatas, Ipomoea trifida, and Ipomoea triloba. Phylogenetic analysis clustered them into 5 groups. Two diploid wild species show high flower/flower‐buds expression, and most sweet potato PR1s are downregulated under ...
