Comparative transcriptomics in the Triticeae [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2009 Barley and particularly wheat are two grass species of immense agricultural importance. In spite of polyploidization events within the latter, studies have shown that genotypically and phenotypically these species are very closely related and, indeed, fertile hybrids can be created by interbreeding.

Comparative analysis of viral RNA signatures on different RIG-I-like receptors
eLife, 2016 The RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) play a major role in sensing RNA virus infection to initiate and modulate antiviral immunity. They interact with particular viral RNAs, most of them being still unknown.

Macromolecular crowding links ribosomal protein gene dosage to growth rate in Vibrio cholerae
BMC Biology, 2020 Background In fast-growing bacteria, the genomic location of ribosomal protein (RP) genes is biased towards the replication origin (oriC). This trait allows optimizing their expression during exponential phase since oriC neighboring regions are in higher

The Intestinal Microbiota Interferes with the microRNA Response upon Oral
mBio, 2013 The intestinal tract is the largest reservoir of microbes in the human body. The intestinal microbiota is thought to be able to modulate alterations of the gut induced by enteropathogens, thereby maintaining homeostasis.
