Multi‐omics analyses shed lights on the evolution and fruit development of Chinese raspberries (Rubus spp.)

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
High‐quality genomes of four wild raspberry species, analysis of their genetic relationships, identification of centromeres as markers for tracing their hybrid origins, exploration of fruit quality regulation, and discovery of a gene blocking anthocyanin transport and thus causing yellow fruits provides valuable resources for raspberry breeding ...

Processing of insect retrotransposons by self-cleaving ribozymes [PDF]

, 2010
We show that several classes of insect non-LTR retrotransposons harbor self-cleaving ribozymes of the HDV family at their 5′ termini. In Drosophila the R2 ribozymes exhibit highly differential in vivo expression and robust in vitro activity ...

The genome-defence gene Tex19.1 suppresses LINE-1 retrotransposons in the placenta and prevents intra-uterine growth retardation in mice [PDF]

, 2013
DNA methylation plays an important role in suppressing retrotransposon activity in mammalian genomes, yet there are stages of mammalian development where global hypomethylation puts the genome at risk of retrotransposition-mediated genetic instability ...

Near‐complete genome assembly of a transformation‐efficient elite inbred line LH244 and its comparison with B73

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Analysis of a near‐complete assembly of the genome of the highly transformable maize inbred line LH244 revealed its high genetic similarity to B73 and will serve as a much‐needed resource for functional genomics and genome editing of maize. ABSTRACT The highly transformable maize inbred line LH244 represents an attractive model for gene discovery and ...

The preferred nucleotide contexts of the AID/APOBEC cytidine deaminases have differential effects when mutating retrotransposon and virus sequences compared to host genes

PLoS Comput. Biol., 2017
The AID / APOBEC genes are a family of cytidine deaminases that have evolved in vertebrates, and particularly mammals, to mutate RNA and DNA at distinct preferred nucleotide contexts (or “hotspots”) on foreign genomes such as viruses and retrotransposons.

Widespread horizontal transfer of retrotransposons [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
In higher organisms such as vertebrates, it is generally believed that lateral transfer of genetic information does not readily occur, with the exception of retroviral infection. However, horizontal transfer (HT) of protein coding repetitive elements is the simplest way to explain the patchy distribution of BovB, a long interspersed element (LINE ...

Haplotype‐resolved telomere‐to‐telomere genome of the jade vine (Strongylodon macrobotrys) provides novel insights into the turquoise flower coloration

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A haplotype‐resolved telomere‐to‐telomere genome reveals that the bird‐shaped turquoise flowers of Strongylodon macrobotrys (jade vine) arise from co‐pigmentation between the anthocyanin malvin and the flavonoid saponarin, shaped by genome dynamics and geological event‐associated expansions of long terminal repeat ...

Overexpression of a Tonoplast Malate Transporter Gene Leads to Enhanced Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthocyanins, a group of secondary metabolites synthesised in the phenylpropanoid pathway, largely determine the peel colour of fleshy fruits, but it is not known if their synthesis is linked to vacuolar malate accumulation that underlies fruit acidity.

Assessment of genetic diversity in Iranian confectionary sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) populations using retrotransposon based IRAP markers [PDF]

مجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2014
Genetic diversity is necessary for plant breeders to obtain new cultivars either with high yield, better quality, more adapted to abiotic stress or more resistant to pest and pathogens. Retrotransposons are current component of plant genomes. Ubiquitous,
