Efficiency of indirect selection in sorghum breeding for target production environments in moisture deficit areas of Ethiopia

open access: yesScientific Reports
The success of crop breeding program ultimately hinges on developing, disseminating, and integrating suitable varieties into the production system. A critical challenge in variety development process is whether indirect selection in one environment is ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Mass selection in maize composites by means of selection indices [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
General considerationsA selection index may be applied to selection based either upon the performance of single plants or upon the performance of progenies.

Implications of avoiding overlap between training and testing data sets when evaluating genomic predictions of genetic merit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The aim of this study was to evaluate and quantify the importance of avoiding overlap between training and testing subsets of data when evaluating the effectiveness of predictions of genetic merit based on genetic markers.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Genetic heterogeneity of residual variance - estimation of variance components using double hierarchical generalized linear models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background The sensitivity to microenvironmental changes varies among animals and may be under genetic control. It is essential to take this element into account when aiming at breeding robust farm animals.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Genomic selection in dairy cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The objectives of this Ph.D. thesis were (1) to optimise genomic selection in dairy cattle with respect to the accuracy of predicting total genetic merit and (2) to optimise a dairy cattle breeding program using genomic selection. The study was performed

Non-random mating for selection with restricted rates of inbreeding and overlapping generations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Minimum coancestry mating with a maximum of one offspring per mating pair (MC1) is compared with random mating schemes for populations with overlapping generations. Optimum contribution selection is used, whereby ΔF is restricted.
