Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats-Associated Protein System for Resistance Against Plant Viruses: Applications and Perspectives

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Different genome editing approaches have been used to engineer resistance against plant viruses. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas; CRISPR/Cas) systems to create pinpoint genetic ...

Genomic Analysis Highlights Putative Defective Susceptibility Genes in Tomato Germplasm

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most widely grown vegetables in the world and is impacted by many diseases which cause yield reduction or even crop failure.

The genetics of infectious disease susceptibility: has the evidence for epistasis been overestimated? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Interactions amongst genes, known as epistasis, are assumed to make a substantial contribution to the genetic variation in infectious disease susceptibility, but this claim is controversial.

IRGM variants and susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease in the German population. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Genome-wide association studies identified the autophagy gene IRGM to be strongly associated with Crohn's disease (CD) but its impact in ulcerative colitis (UC), its phenotypic effects and potential epistatic interactions with other IBD susceptibility ...

Identification of candidate genes for dyslexia susceptibility on chromosome 18 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Six independent studies have identified linkage to chromosome 18 for developmental dyslexia or general reading ability. Until now, no candidate genes have been identified to explain this linkage.

Polymorphisms in leucine-rich repeat genes are associated with autism spectrum disorder susceptibility in populations of European ancestry. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorders which are characteristically comprised of impairments in social interaction, communication and restricted interests/behaviours.

The contribution of OCTN1/2 variants within the IBD5 locus to disease susceptibility and severity in Crohn's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Recent data suggest that polymorphisms in the organic cation transporter (OCTN) genes OCTN1 (SLC22A4) and OCTN2 (SLC22A5) represent disease-causing mutations within the IBD5 locus (chromosome 5q31).

Inactivation of tomato WAT1 leads to reduced susceptibility to Clavibacter michiganensis through downregulation of bacterial virulence factors

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Tomato bacterial canker caused by Clavibacter michiganensis (Cm) is considered to be one of the most destructive bacterial diseases of tomato. To date, no resistance to the pathogen has been identified. While several molecular studies have identified (Cm)

A transcriptome-wide association study of high grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer identifies novel susceptibility genes and splice variants

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2019
We sought to identify susceptibility genes for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) by performing a transcriptome-wide association study of gene expression and splice junction usage in HGSOC-relevant tissue types (N = 2,169) and the largest genome ...
