An expression profiling analysis of hybrid millet and its parents at grain filling stage

Authors: Z.H. Liu, H.M. Zhang, G.L. Li, Y.M. Zhang, H.C. Li and X.L. Guo

Heterosis has been widely used in crop breeding and production. However, a shortage of genes known to function in heterosis significantly limits our understanding of the molecular basis underlying heterosis. Here, we report 740 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the leaves of the hybrid millet Zhang No.5 and its parents at the grain filling stage de.. Read More»

Development of novel simple sequence repeat markers from a genomic sequence survey database and their application for diversity assessment in Jatropha curcas germplasm from Guatemala

Authors: R.S. Raposo, I.G.B. Souza, M.E.C. Veloso, A.K. Kobayashi, B.G. Laviola and F.M. Diniz

The last few years have seen a significant increase in the number of large-scale sequencing projects generating whole genome databases. These sequence databases can be surveyed (genome sequence survey) for tandem repeats as an alternative means to develop microsatellites for monitoring and selecting natural populations and cul..

Replication timing regulation in adults with chromosomal balance rearrangements

Authors: Y. Xie, J. Wu, S. Lin, Y. Zhou, Q. Fang and X. Sun

The alternative forms of the alleles in biallelic genes display a synchronous pattern of replication that is different from genes subjected to monoallelic expression, which exhibit an asynchronous mode of replication. The present study sought to gain insight into changes in the allele-specific replication timing in phenotypically normal humans with balanc.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and relatedness between Canind�© and British Alpine goat breeds in Northeastern Brazil accessed by microsatellite markers

Authors: T.S. C�¢mara, J.F. Nunes, F.M. Diniz, G.R. Silva, A.M. Ara�ºjo

The aim of this study was to access the genetic diversity and relatedness between CanindÃ?© and British Alpine goat breeds in the States of PiauÃ?­ and CearÃ?¡ using microsatellite markers. Genomic DNA was isolated from hair samples of 99 goats belonging to six different flocks. A panel of polymorphic heterologous microsatellite loci was used to genotype .. Read More»

Molecular characterization and phylogenetic relationships among species of the genus Brycon (Characiformes: Characidae) from four hydrographic basins in Brazil

Authors: R.S.P. Antunes, V.N. Gomes, S.M.A.P. Prioli , R.A. Prioli, H.F. J�ºlio Jr., L.M. Prioli, C.S. Agostinho and A.J. Prioli

Brycon is one of the main genera of Neotropical freshwater fish. In Brazil, Brycon species have been found in many hydrographic basins, such as the Amazon, Paraná, Paraguay, and Araguaia-Tocantins basins. We examined the phylogenetic relationships among the species Brycon orbignyanus, B. hilarii, B. cf. pesu, B. cephalu.. Read More»

Correlation between sheep YAP1 temporal and spatial expression trends and MSTN and MyoG gene expression

Authors: X.Y. Lv, W. Sun, R. Su, D. Li, Q.Z. Wang, H.H. Musa, L. Chen, Y.F. Zhang and W.Z. Wu

The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) gene expression after birth on the development of muscle and the relationship between YAP1 and myostatin (MSTN) and myogenin (MyoG). Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to analyze the trends in YAP1, MSTN, and MyoG temporal and spatial expre.. Read More»

Relationship between a lipoprotein lipase gene polymorphism in placental tissue and insulin resistance in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus

Authors: D.D. Li, D.Y. Su, L. Xue, W. Gao and W.Y. Pang

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between a lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene polymorphism in placental tissue and insulin resistance (IR) in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus. Using polymerase chain reaction-restriction enzyme fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis, the LPL HindIII RFLP was examined in the placenta.. Read More»

pelB gene in isolates of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides from several hosts

Authors: L.V. Medeiros, D.B. Maciel, V.V. Medeiros, L.M. Houllou Kido and N.T. Oliveira

Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is an important pathogen for a great number of economically important crops. During the necrotrophic phase of infection by Colletotrichum spp, the degradative enzymes of plant cell walls, such as pectate lyase, clearly increase. A gene pelB that expresses a pectate lyase was identified in isolate.. Read More»

Comprehensive identification and expression analysis of Hsp90s gene family in Solanum lycopersicum

Authors: W.S. Zai, L.X. Miao, Z.L. Xiong, H.L. Zhang, Y.R. Ma, Y.L. Li, Y.B. Chen and S.G. Ye

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a protein produced by plants in response to adverse environmental stresses. In this study, we identified and analyzed Hsp90 gene family members using a bioinformatic method based on genomic data from tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). The results illustrated that tomato contains at least 7 Hsp90 genes distributed on 6 chrom.. Read More»
