Phylogenetic and syntenic data support a single horizontal transference to a Trypanosoma ancestor of a prokaryotic proline racemase implicated in parasite evasion from host defences
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Abstract
Background
Proline racemase (PRAC) enzymes of Trypanosoma cruzi (TcPRAC), the agent of Chagas disease, and Trypanosoma vivax (TvPRAC), the agent of livestock ...
Integrating cytogenetics and genomics in comparative evolutionary studies of cichlid fish
(Biomed Central Ltd., 2012-09-09)
Background: The availability of a large number of recently sequenced vertebrate genomes opens new avenues to integrate cytogenetics and genomics in comparative and evolutionary studies. Cytogenetic mapping can offer ...
A High-Density Linkage Map of the Forage Grass Eragrostis curvula and Localization of the Diplospory Locus
(Frontiers, 2019-07-12)
Eragrostis curvula (Schrad.) Nees (weeping lovegrass) is an apomictic species native to Southern Africa that is used as forage grass in semiarid regions of Argentina. Apomixis is a mechanism for clonal propagation through ...
The nuclear and mitochondrial genomes of Frieseomelitta varia - a highly eusocial stingless bee (Meliponini) with a permanently sterile worker caste
(Bmc, 2020-06-03)
BackgroundMost of our understanding on the social behavior and genomics of bees and other social insects is centered on the Western honey bee, Apis mellifera. The genus Apis, however, is a highly derived branch comprising ...
Evolutionary, structural and functional relationships revealed by comparative analysis of syntenic genes in Rhizobiales
(2012-11-23)
