A re-sequencing based assessment of genomic heterogeneity and fast neutron-induced deletions in a common bean cultivar

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
A small fast neutron mutant population has been established from Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Red Hawk. We leveraged the available P. vulgaris genome sequence and high throughput next generation DNA sequencing to examine the genomic structure of five ...

Exploring the Relationship Among Divergence Time and Coding and Non-coding Elements in the Shaping of Fungal Mitochondrial Genomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The order Hypocreales (Ascomycota) is composed of ubiquitous and ecologically diverse fungi such as saprobes, biotrophs, and pathogens. Despite their phylogenetic relationship, these species exhibit high variability in biomolecules production, lifestyle,

Structural and genomic variation in preterm birth [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Research, 2016
Runs of homozygosity (ROH) are consecutive homozygous genotypes, which may result from population inbreeding or consanguineous marriages. ROH enhance the expression of recessive traits.We mapped ROH in a case control study of women delivering at term compared with women delivering at or before 34 wk gestation. Gene sets known to be important in risk of

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Structural Variations of Agriculture in the Pacific [PDF]

open access: yesAgricultural Economics, 1987
AbstractAgricultural shares of output and employment in thirteen Pacific basin countries are analyzed with reference to a global baseline for 1980. Per‐capita output parity ratios are lower in the ASEAN, ANICs, and Japan as compared to their trading partners in North America and Oceania. Wide differences in land‐labor ratios influence the directions of

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Copy Number Variation Mapping and Genomic Variation of Autochthonous and Commercial Turkey Populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
This study aims at investigating genomic diversity of several turkey populations using Copy Number Variants (CNVs). A total of 115 individuals from six Italian breeds (Colle Euganei, Bronzato Comune Italiano, Parma e Piacenza, Brianzolo, Nero d’Italia ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Novel Genetic Rearrangements Termed “Structural Variation Polymorphisms“ Contribute to the Genetic Diversity of Orthohepadnaviruses

open access: yesViruses, 2019
The genetic diversity of orthohepadnaviruses is not yet fully understood. This study was conducted to investigate the role of structural variations (SVs) in their diversity. Genetic sequences of orthohepadnaviruses were retrieved from databases.

Genomics of Clinal Local Adaptation in Pinus sylvestris Under Continuous Environmental and Spatial Genetic Setting

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Understanding the consequences of local adaptation at the genomic diversity is a central goal in evolutionary genetics of natural populations. In species with large continuous geographical distributions the phenotypic signal of local adaptation is ...
