Tandem duplications lead to novel expression patterns through exon shuffling in Drosophila yakuba.

PLoS Genetics, 2017
One common hypothesis to explain the impacts of tandem duplications is that whole gene duplications commonly produce additive changes in gene expression due to copy number changes.

A recent duplication revisited: phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancestral duplication highly-conserved throughout the Oryza genus and beyond

BMC Plant Biology, 2009
Background The role of gene duplication in the structural and functional evolution of genomes has been well documented. Analysis of complete rice (Oryza sativa) genome sequences suggested an ancient whole genome duplication, common to all the grasses ...

Size isn’t everything:rates of genome size evolution, not C value, correlate with speciation in angiosperms [PDF]

, 2015
Angiosperms represent one of the key examples of evolutionary success, and their diversity dwarfs other land plants; this success has been linked, in part, to genome size and phenomena such as whole genome duplication events.

LINC01116, a hypoxia‐lncRNA marker of pathological lymphangiogenesis and poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The LINC01116 long noncoding RNA is induced by hypoxia and associated with poor prognosis and high recurrence rates in two cohorts of lung adenocarcinoma patients. Here, we demonstrate that besides its expression in cancer cells, LINC01116 is markedly expressed in lymphatic endothelial cells of the tumor stroma in which it participates in hypoxia ...

Spontaneous whole-genome duplication restores fertility in interspecific hybrids

Nature Communications, 2019
Hybridization across species can lead to offspring with reduced fertility. Here, the authors experimentally evolve yeast and show that whole-genome duplication during asexual reproduction can restore fertility in hybrids over a relatively short ...

The Phenotype Paradox: Lessons From Natural Transcriptome Evolution on How to Engineer Plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Plants have evolved genome complexity through iterative rounds of single gene and whole genome duplication. This has led to substantial expansion in transcription factor numbers following preferential retention and subsequent functional divergence of ...

Genomic variations associated with attenuation in Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis vaccine strains [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) whole cell vaccines have been widely used tools in the control of Johne's disease in animals despite being unable to provide complete protection. Current vaccine strains derive from stocks

Crucial parameters for precise copy number variation detection in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded solid cancer samples

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that copy number variations (CNVs) can be reliably detected in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) solid cancer samples using ultra‐low‐pass whole‐genome sequencing, provided that key (pre)‐analytical parameters are optimized.

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Whole-Genome Duplication and Host Genotype Affect Rhizosphere Microbial Communities

mSystems, 2022
The composition of microbial communities found in association with plants is influenced by host phenotype and genotype. However, the ways in which specific genetic architectures of host plants shape microbiomes are unknown.
