Niche Specialization and Functional Overlap of Bamboo Leaf and Root Microbiota

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Leaves and roots harbor taxonomically diverse bacterial assemblages which enhance plant growth and performance by increasing nutrient supply and resistance to stress. An extensive investigation of bacterial diversity and composition between leaf and root

Evaluation of Germline Structural Variant Calling Methods for Nanopore Sequencing Data

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Structural variants (SVs) are genomic rearrangements that involve at least 50 nucleotides and are known to have a serious impact on human health. While prior short-read sequencing technologies have often proved inadequate for a comprehensive assessment ...

Structural Data Recognition with Graph Model Boosting [PDF]

, 2017
This paper presents a novel method for structural data recognition using a large number of graph models. In general, prevalent methods for structural data recognition have two shortcomings: 1) Only a single model is used to capture structural variation ...

Divergent drivers of leaf trait variation within species, among species, and among functional groups. [PDF]

, 2018
Understanding variation in leaf functional traits-including rates of photosynthesis and respiration and concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus-is a fundamental challenge in plant ecophysiology. When expressed per unit leaf area, these traits typically

Compared analysis with a high-quality genome of weedy rice reveals the evolutionary game of de-domestication

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The weedy rice (Oryza sativa f. spontanea) harbors large numbers of excellent traits and genetic diversities, which serves as a valuable germplasm resource and has been considered as a typical material for research about de-domestication.

Louse (Insecta : Phthiraptera) mitochondrial 12S rRNA secondary structure is highly variable [PDF]

, 2002
Lice are ectoparasitic insects hosted by birds and mammals. Mitochondrial 12S rRNA sequences obtained from lice show considerable length variation and are very difficult to align.

Understanding genome structural variations

Oncotarget, 2015
Genome structural variations (SVs) in the human genome are defined as DNA sequence polymorphisms of at least a few dozen or few hundred bases in length and include deletions, duplications, inversions, translocation, retroelement insertions, and more complex rearrangements that could be thought of as consisting of multiple fragments from the just listed

Indels, structural variation, and recombination drive genomic diversity inPlasmodium falciparum [PDF]

, 2016
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum has a great capacity for evolutionary adaptation to evade host immunity and develop drug resistance. Current understanding of parasite evolution is impeded by the fact that a large fraction of the genome is ...
