The effect of the H -1 scaling factors τ and ω on the structure of H in the single-step procedure
(BioMed Central, 2018-04)
Background: The single-step covariance matrix H combines the pedigree-based relationship matrix A with the more accurate information on realized relatedness of genotyped individuals represented by the genomic relationship ...
Molecular bases of responses to abiotic stress in trees
(Oxford University Press, 2020-06)
Trees are constantly exposed to climate fluctuations, which vary with both time and geographic location. Environmental changes that are outside of the physiological favorable range usually negatively affect plant performance ...
β-Galactosidases from a Sequence-Based Metagenome: Cloning, Expression, Purification and Characterization
(MDPI, 2021)
Stabilization ponds are a common treatment technology for wastewater generated by dairy industries. Large proportions of cheese whey are thrown into these ponds, creating an environmental problem because of the large volume ...
Molecular bases of responses to abiotic stress in trees
(Oxford University Press, 2020-06)
Trees are constantly exposed to climate fluctuations, which vary with both time and geographic location. Environmental changes out of the physiological favorable range usually negatively affect plant performance, triggering ...
Genomic screening in dioecious "yerba mate" tree (Ilex paraguariensis A. St. Hill., Aquifoliaceae) through representational difference analysis
(Springer, 2010-06)
The "yerba mate" tree, Ilex paraguariensis, is a functionally dioecious crop species with economic relevance in several South American countries. We report a genomic screening accomplished through representational difference ...
Comparative and functional triatomine genomics reveals reductions and expansions in insecticide resistance-related gene families
(Public Library of Science, 2017-02)
Background: Triatomine insects are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, a protozoan parasite that is the causative agent of Chagas’ disease. This is a neglected disease affecting approximately 8 million people in Latin America. ...
VDR activation of intracellular signaling pathways in skeletal muscle
(Elsevier Ireland, 2011-12)
The purpose of this article is to review the activation of signal transduction pathways in skeletal muscle cells by the hormone 1α,25(OH) 2-vitamin D 3 [1α,25(OH) 2D 3], focusing on the role of the vitamin D receptor (VDR). ...
A collection of Ds insertional mutants associated with defects in male gametophyte development and function in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Genetics Society of America, 2009-04-01)
Functional analyses of the Arabidopsis genome require analysis of the gametophytic generation, since ∼10% of the genes are expressed in the male gametophyte and ∼9% in the female gametophyte. Here we describe the genetic ...
Extensive Expansion of A1 Family Aspartic Proteinases in Fungi Revealed by Evolutionary Analyses of 107 Complete Eukaryotic Proteomes
(Oxford University Press, 2014-05)
The A1 family of eukaryotic aspartic proteinases (APs) forms one of the 16 AP families. Although one of the best characterized families, the recent increase in genome sequence data has revealed many fungal AP homologs with ...
Exploring the role of the NO‑detoxifying enzyme HmpA in the evolution of domesticated Alfalfa Rhizobia
(Springer, 2022-02)
We have previously shown the extensive loss of genes during the domestication of alfalfa rhizobia and the high nitrous oxide emission associated with the extreme genomic instability of commercial inoculants. In the present ...
