Preliminary genetic barcodes for ash (Fraxinus) species and generation of new wide hybrids

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement The world‐wide diversity of ash trees includes genetic information encoding resistance to the ash dieback fungus and the emerald ash borer beetle, which are currently devastating ash populations in Europe and North America. In order to mobilise this genetic diversity in conventional breeding programmes, we need to be able to ...

In vitro evidence for senescent multinucleated melanocytes as a source for tumor-initiating cells [PDF]

, 2015
Oncogenic signaling in melanocytes results in oncogene-induced senescence (OIS), a stable cell-cycle arrest frequently characterized by a bi- or multinuclear phenotype that is considered as a barrier to cancer progression.

Defining the parameters of comet assay for reliably detecting DNA damage as a marker of X‐ray based irradiation in insects treated with non‐lethal doses for export fruit sanitation

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Houseflies, clover root weevils, and mangoes were used to demonstrate the comet assay's adaptability. Our findings indicate that the comet assay can reliably detect irradiation‐induced DNA damage in both insects and fruit. However, the assay parameters require careful adjustment to account for differences in insect tissue types and life stages ...

Hybridization, polyploidy, and evolutionary transitions between monoecy and dioecy in Bryonia (Cucurbitaceae) [PDF]

, 2008
Correns’s 1903 (Berichte der Deutschen Botanischen Gesellschaft 21: 133 – 147) crosses between a monoecious and a dioecious species of Bryonia revealed the simple Mendelian inheritance of dioecy and provided the first instance of an XY sex determination ...

Insights into ALS‐inhibiting herbicide resistance in Poa annua in an arable cropping system

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Variable cross‐resistance to ALS inhibitors in five Poa annua populations from wheat fields in Ireland caused by different TSR mutations. Abstract BACKGROUND Dependence on a single herbicide type to control a broad‐spectrum of weeds has resulted in cases of resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitors in weeds normally considered lower priority

Aneuploidy and proteotoxic stress in cancer [PDF]

, 2015
Although nearly ubiquitous in cancer, aneuploidy exerts detrimental effects on human cells. We recently demonstrated that aneuploid human cells exhibit impaired heat shock factor protein 1 (HSF1) and HSP90 function, suggesting a functional link between ...

Taxonomy and nomenclature of Rubus ser. Glandulosi (Rosaceae) across its Eurasian range: Revised concepts and new approaches

TAXON, EarlyView.
Abstract Rubus ser. Glandulosi is one of the most taxonomically intricate taxa of the genus, which is by itself considered a taxonomical nightmare. Around 46 species are currently recognised in the group, but most of its morphological diversity could not be classified at the species level until recently due to unclear reproductive patterns, high ...

Production of triploid plants from endosperm cultures of Phlox drummondii

Biologia Plantarum, 2014
Triploid plants of ornamental Phlox drummondii Hook. were raised from cultures of endosperm excised from immature fruits having zygotic embryo at early dicotyledonous stage. Endosperm tissue was firstly cultured with the embryo on the Murashige and Skoog'

Context‐dependent relationships between genomic traits and plant performance in temperate grasslands

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Genome size and ploidy level affect fundamental processes in plants—including growth rate, stress tolerance and dispersal ability—and may play a critical role in shaping species responses to changing environmental conditions. Central European temperate grasslands, which
