The human intelligence evolved from proximal cis‐regulatory saltations
Abstract The divergence rate between the alignable genomes of humans and chimpanzees is as little as 1.23%. Their phenotypical difference was hypothesized to be accounted for by gene regulation. We construct the cis‐regulatory element frequency (CREF) matrix to represent the proximal regulatory sequences for each species.

A survey of variability in LTR-retrotransposon abundance and proximity to genes between wild and cultivated sunflower genotypes [PDF]
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is an important crop species of the Asteraceae family. Recent characterization of sunflower repetitive fraction has shown that the genome of this species contains a very large proportion of transposable elements ...

Overexpression of the GmERF071 gene confers resistance to soybean cyst nematode in soybean
Abstract Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is one of the most harmful pests, causing major reductions in soybean yield globally. The validation and functional characterization of SCN resistance genes are crucial to improving soybean yield worldwide. Herein, we describe an SCN resistance gene, GmERF071 (Glyma.19g262700).

Evolving Lessons on Metazoan Primordial Germ Cells in Diversity and Development
ABSTRACT Germ cells are pivotal for the continuation of biological species. The metazoan germline develops from primordial germ cells (PGCs) that undergo multiple rounds of mitotic divisions. The PGCs are specified by either maternal inheritance of asymmetrically polarized cytoplasmic mRNAs/proteins (found in roundworms, flies, fishes, frogs, and fowl)
