Uncovering patterns of the evolution of genomic sequence entropy and complexity
(2021-03-01)
The lack of consensus concerning the biological meaning of entropy and complexity of genomes and the different ways to assess these data hamper conclusions concerning what are the causes of genomic entropy variation among ...
Genome size versus genome assemblies: Are the genomes truly expanded in polyploid fungal symbionts?
(2020-01-01)
Each day, as the amount of genomic data and bioinformatics resources grows, researchers are increasingly challenged with selecting the most appropriate approach to analyze their data. In addition, the opportunity to undertake ...
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 ...
Origin and Evolution of B Chromosomes in the Cichlid Fish Astatotilapia latifasciata Based on Integrated Genomic Analyses
(Oxford Univ Press, 2014-08-01)
Approximately 15% of eukaryotes contain supernumerary B chromosomes. When present, B chromosomes frequently represent as much as 5% of the genome. Despite thousands of reports describing the distribution of supernumeraries ...
Organization of Repeated DNA Elements in the Genome of the Cichlid Fish Cichla kelberi and Its Contributions to the Knowledge of Fish Genomes
(Karger, 2009-01-01)
Repeated DNA elements have been extensively applied as physical chromosome markers in comparative studies for the identification of chromosomal rearrangements, the identification of sex chromosomes, chromosome evolution ...
Comparative Genomics of Tenacibaculum dicentrarchi and "Tenacibaculum finnmarkense" Highlights Intricate Evolution of Fish-Pathogenic Species
(Oxford University Press, 2018-02)
The genus Tenacibaculum encompasses several species pathogenic for marine fish. Tenacibaculum dicentrarchi and "Tenacibaculum finnmarkense" (Quotation marks denote species that have not been validly named.) were retrieved ...
Functional Annotation of All Salmonid Genomes (FAASG): an international initiative supporting future salmonid research, conservation and aquaculture
(BIOMED Central Ltd., 2017)
We describe an emerging initiative - the 'Functional Annotation of All Salmonid Genomes' (FAASG), which will leverage the extensive trait diversity that has evolved since a whole genome duplication event in the salmonid ...
Evolution and genomic organization of muscle microRNAs in fish genomes
(Biomed Central Ltd, 2014-09-25)
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules with an important role upon post-transcriptional regulation. These molecules have been shown essential for several cellular processes in vertebrates, including ...
Genomic content and new insights on the origin of the B chromosome of the cichlid fish Astatotilapia latifasciata
(Springer, 2011-10-01)
B chromosomes are additional chromosomes widely studied in a diversity of eukaryotic groups, including fungi, plants and animals, but their origin, evolution and possible functions are not clearly understood. To further ...
Genome dynamics, genetic complexity and macroevolution
