A Phylogenetic Analysis of the Genus Fragaria (Strawberry) Using Intron-Containing Sequence from the ADH-1 Gene [PDF]
The genus Fragaria encompasses species at ploidy levels ranging from diploid to decaploid. The cultivated strawberry, Fragaria×ananassa, and its two immediate progenitors, F. chiloensis and F. virginiana, are octoploids.

License to Replicate: Mechanisms of Licensing Eukaryotic Origins for DNA Replication
Origin licensing constitutes the first step in initiating eukaryotic genome replication. Licensed origins are marked by an MCM double hexamer complex. This article reviews the molecular mechanisms of MCM double hexamer loading in yeast and higher eukaryotes, based on insights gained from biochemical reconstitution and structural analyses.

Polyploidy plays a significant role in loquat breeding, particularly in triploid breeding for seedless fruit production. Currently, loquat polyploid breeding primarily relies on natural seedling selection and sexual hybridization approaches.

Zipping up the Synaptonemal Complex: Pathways to Homologous Chromosome Synapsis
The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a conserved protein structure that assembles between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Here, we review pathways promoting homologous synapsis across model organisms, examining coordination with homolog pairing and recombination, spatiotemporal regulation of SC assembly, and the conserved molecular modules coupling ...

Abstract Elderberries (Sambucus spp.) have been valued as food and medicine around the world for millennia. Elderberry products are experiencing an increase in demand as ongoing research substantiates their putative health benefits. European elderberries (Sambucus nigra subsp. nigra) are an established industry in Europe and are often imported into the

Operational sex ratio bias due to sex‐specific cohort splitting in response to predation
Abstract The operational sex ratio (OSR), that is, the local ratio of fertilizable females to sexually active males at any given time, is of key importance for the strength of sexual selection and the reproduction of populations. We hypothesize that sex‐specific cohort splitting, that is, when one sex mostly metamorphoses while the other mostly enters ...

Conservation challenges and opportunities for native apple (Malus) species in Canada
Apple, one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important fruit crops, has two wild relatives native to Canada. In this review, we describe the importance of these native apple species to Indigenous heritage and the current threats the species faces due to pests, diseases, and habitat loss.
