Modular Skeletal Evolution in Sticklebacks Is Controlled by Additive and Clustered Quantitative Trait Loci

Genetics, 2014
Understanding the genetic architecture of evolutionary change remains a long-standing goal in biology. In vertebrates, skeletal evolution has contributed greatly to adaptation in body form and function in response to changing ecological variables like ...

Genomic Insights into Post‐Domestication Expansion and Selection of Body Size in Ponies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The authors’ research delves into the history of ponies by assembling a pony genome and integrating horse genomes. This unveils genetic connections between Asian and European pony breeds. Cis‐regulatory elements of key genes impacting body size are also identified.

Quantitative trait loci affecting reproductive phenology in peach

BMC Plant Biology, 2014
BackgroundThe reproductive phenology of perennial plants in temperate climates is largely conditioned by the duration of bud dormancy, and fruit developmental processes.

Hierarchical Regulatory Networks Reveal Conserved Drivers of Plant Drought Response at the Cell‐Type Level

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a comprehensive multi‐omics framework to uncover cell‐type‐specific regulatory networks in plant drought responses. By integrating transcriptomic, proteomic, and epigenetic data from nearly 30 000 samples, key regulators such as CIPK23 and NLP7 are identified, revealing insights into conserved drought tolerance mechanisms and ...

Development of single nucleotide polymorphism markers and genetic diversity in guava (Psidium guajava L.)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 58-69, January 2023., 2023
There are many understudied fruits of great economic and productive importance for regional agricultural hubs. Guava is an American fruit species with attractive nutritional and adaptability characteristics. However, in many countries like Mexico, its cultivation is still limited to small‐to‐medium size plantings and home gardens and depends on poorly ...

A meta-analysis of gene expression quantitative trait loci in brain

Translational Psychiatry, 2014
Current catalogs of brain expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) are incomplete and the findings do not replicate well across studies. All existing cortical eQTL studies are small and emphasize the need for a meta-analysis.

Paternal Obesity‐Induced H3K27me3 Elevation Leads to MANF‐Mediated Transgenerational Metabolic Dysfunction in Female Offspring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Paternal lifestyle and environmental exposures play a critical role in the offspring's health. The present study established a paternal obesity model and demonstrated that elevated H3K27me3 levels in sperm persist through the 8‐cell embryo stage. This epigenetic modification triggers transgenerational decrease of MANF, inducing ER stress and activating

Epistatic modifiers influence the expression of continual flowering in strawberry

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 70-81, January 2023., 2023
Until the 1970s, the majority of commercial strawberry varieties produced a single bloom of flowers. However, continuously flowering, everbearing strawberries are now routinely cultivated and use is increasing. Indeed, introgression of the everbearing flowering trait can lead to economic benefits for growers through the production of a continual crop ...

An eQTL Analysis of Partial Resistance to Puccinia hordei in Barley [PDF]

, 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
