A Pan‐Methylome Framework for Population‐Scale Bacterial Epigenomics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A scalable quantitative framework unlocks population‐level comparative epigenomics in bacteria. By transforming site‐level data into standardized traits, this approach reconstructs methylation‐informed phylogenies and defines the core epigenome.

Heritability of Horn Size in Thinhorn Sheep

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Understanding the genetic basis of fitness-related trait variation has long been of great interest to evolutionary biologists. Secondary sexual characteristics, such as horns in bovids, are particularly intriguing since they can be potentially affected ...

Genetics of the Inverse Relationship between Grain Yield and Grain Protein Content in Common Wheat

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Grain protein content (GPC) is one of the most important criteria to determine the quality of common wheat (Triticum aestivum). One of the major obstacles for bread wheat production is the negative correlation between GPC and grain yield (GY).

An eQTL analysis of partial resistance to Puccinia hordei in barley [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background - Genetic resistance to barley leaf rust caused by Puccinia hordei involves both R genes and quantitative trait loci. The R genes provide higher but less durable resistance than the quantitative trait loci. Consequently, exploring quantitative

Large‐scale Whole‐Exome Sequencing Defines the Protein‐Coding Architecture of Retinal Structure, Visual Function, and Major Blinding Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Large‐scale whole‐exome sequencing in 356,982 UK Biobank participants defines the protein‐coding architecture of retinal structure, visual function, and major blinding diseases. Pleiotropic genes, including CFI, C3, and RIOX1, bridge multiple retinal phenotypes, while experimental validation of FYB2 implicates RPE barrier dysfunction, providing ...

Spring Is Coming: Genetic Analyses of the Bud Break Date Locus Reveal Candidate Genes From the Cold Perception Pathway to Dormancy Release in Apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Chilling requirement (CR) for bud dormancy completion determines the time of bud break in apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.). The molecular control of bud dormancy is highly heritable, suggesting a strong genetic control of the trait. An available Infinium

Number and mode of inheritance of QTL influencing backfat thickness on SSC2p in Sino-European pig pedigrees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background In the pig, multiple QTL associated with growth and fatness traits have been mapped to chromosome 2 (SSC2) and among these, at least one shows paternal expression due to the IGF2-intron3-G3072A substitution. Previously published results on the

Herbicide Metabolic Resistance in Poaceae Plants via the GA‐GID1/DELLA‐DOF2‐P450s Module

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant hormone signaling modulates herbicide resistance in Echinochloa crus‐galli. The GA–DELLA–DOF2 cascade directly activates P450 detoxification genes in two Poaceae species, uncovering a core mechanism of metabolic herbicide resistance. ABSTRACT Barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus‐galli) is one of the world's most important weeds, and the evolution of ...

HERITABILITY OF A QUANTITATIVE COTTON TRAIT IN HYBRID POPULATIONS F2

open access: yes, 2023
The article presents analysis of heritability estimate by a raw cotton boll mass in a population of geographically separated cotton F2 hybrids. Efficacy of selection by a raw cotton boll mass was demonstrated to depend on individual peculiarities of the genotypes hybridized.
