Genome mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling domestication traits of intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium). [PDF]

, 2019
Allohexaploid (2n = 6x = 42) intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium), abbreviated IWG, is an outcrossing perennial grass belonging to the tertiary gene pool of wheat.

A high-density genetic map developed by specific-locus amplified fragment (SLAF) sequencing and identification of a locus controlling anthocyanin pigmentation in stalk of Zicaitai (Brassica rapa L. ssp. chinensis var. purpurea)

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Caixin and Zicaitai (Brassica rapa) belong to Southern and Central China respectively. Zicaitai contains high amount of anthocyanin in leaf and stalk resulting to the purple color.

A Recursive Model Approach to Include Epigenetic Effects in Genetic Evaluations Using Simulated DNA Methylation Effects

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The advancement of epigenetics has highlighted DNA methylation as an intermediate‐omic influencing gene regulation and phenotypic expression. With emerging technologies enabling the large‐scale and affordable capture of methylation data, there is growing interest in integrating this information into genetic evaluation models for animal ...

A Similarity Matrix for Preserving Haplotype Diversity Amongst Parents in Genomic Selection

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In genomic selection, balancing genetic gain with the preservation of genetic diversity is a critical challenge, requiring innovative approaches to parent selection. Traditional methods risk losing valuable genetic diversity by not fully accounting for the complex patterns of haplotype distribution.

The silicon efflux transporter BEC1 is essential for bloom formation and stress tolerance in cucumber

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Mutation of the silicon efflux transporter gene BEC1 in cucumber impaired silicon uptake, resulting in fruits lacking bloom, the white powdery layer on fruits, and compromising stress resistance. Grafting bec1 scions onto bloom‐competent rootstocks restored the silicon accumulation and stress resistance, while maintaining the bloomless phenotype ...

Adjusting for Treatment Effects in Studies of Quantitative Traits [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
A population-based study of a quantitative trait, e.g. Blood Pressure(BP) may be seriously compromised when the trait is subject to the effects of a treatment. Without appropriate corrections this can lead to considerable reduction of statistical power. Here we demonestrate this in the scenario of QTL mapping through Single-Marker Analysis.

A Major Quantitative Trait Locus for Resistance to Potato leafroll virus Is Located in a Resistance Hotspot on Potato Chromosome XI and Is Tightly Linked to N-Gene-Like Markers

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) causes one of the most widespread and important virus diseases in potato. Resistance to PLRV is controlled by genetic factors that limit plant infection by viruliferous aphids or virus multiplication and accumulation ...

TaSED interacts with TaSPA synergistically regulating SDS‐sedimentation volume in bread wheat

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Wheat TaSED is a positive regulator of SDS‐sedimentation volume, an indicator of gluten strength and thus baking properties. TaSED interacts with the transcription factor TaSPA regulating wheat storage protein gene expression, altering protein composition and affecting SDS‐sedimentation volume, providing a valuable genetic resource for improving wheat ...

Hybridization and gene expression: Beyond differentially expressed genes

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gene expression has a key role in reproductive isolation, and studies of hybrid gene expression have identified mechanisms causing hybrid sterility. Here, we review the evidence for altered gene expression following hybridization and outline the mechanisms shown to contribute to altered gene expression in hybrids. Transgressive gene expression,

Documenting homoploid hybrid speciation

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Homoploid hybrid speciation is challenging to document because hybridization can lead to outcomes other than speciation. Thus, some authors have argued that establishment of homoploid hybrid speciation should include evidence that reproductive barriers isolating the hybrid neo‐species from its parental species were derived from hybridization ...
