Evolution of genome space occupation in ferns: linking genome diversity and species richness
(Oxford University Press, 2021-07)
Background and Aims:The dynamics of genome evolution caused by whole genome duplications and other processes are hypothesized to shape the diversification of plants and thus contribute to the astonishing variation in species ...
The Genome Sequence of Taurine Cattle: A Window to Ruminant Biology and Evolution
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2009-04)
To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced to about sevenfold coverage. The cattle genome contains a minimum of 22,000 genes, with a core set of 14,345 orthologs shared among seven ...
Large vs small genomes in Passiflora: The influence of the mobilome and the satellitome
(Springer, 2021-04)
While two lineages of retrotransposons were more abundant in larger Passiflora genomes, the satellitome was more diverse and abundant in the smallest genome analysed. Abstract: Repetitive sequences are ubiquitous and ...
The complete organelle genomes of Physochlaina orientalis: Insights into short sequence repeats across seed plant mitochondrial genomes
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2019-08)
Short repeats (SR)play an important role in shaping seed plant mitochondrial genomes (mtDNAs). However, their origin, distribution, and relationships across the different plant lineages remain unresolved. We focus on the ...
A Shift in Paradigms: Spatial Genomics Approaches to Reveal Single-Cell Principles of Genome Organization
(Frontiers Media, 2021-11)
The genome tridimensional (3D) organization and its role towards the regulation of key cell processes such as transcription is currently a main question in biology. Interphase chromosomes are spatially segregated into ...
Mitochondrial genome architecture in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2016-12)
Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, a decreased liver mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) content, and impaired energy metabolism. To understand the clinical implications of mtDNA ...
Crucial role of the accessory genome in the evolutionary trajectory of Acinetobacter baumannii International Clone 1
(Frontiers Media, 2020-03)
Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the most important nosocomial pathogens able to rapidly develop extensive drug resistance. Here, we study the role of accessory genome in the success of the globally disseminated clone 1 ...
Biotechnological challenges: The scope of genome editing
(Sociedade Brasileira de Reproducao Assistida, 2021-02)
CRISPR/Cas9 can be considered as the biotechnological breakthrough of the century. Genome editing technologies have developed in a vertiginous way. While the genome editing of species, including animals, plants and bacteria ...
Genetic potential of the biocontrol agent pseudomonas brassicacearum (Formerly P. trivialis) 3Re2-7 unraveled by genome sequencing and mining, comparative genomics and transcriptomics
(MDPI AG, 2019-08-09)
The genus Pseudomonas comprises many known plant-associated microbes with plant growth promotion and disease suppression properties. Genome-based studies allow the prediction of the underlying mechanisms using genome mining ...
Draft genome sequence of lactobacillus curvatus FLEC03, a meat-borne isolate from beef carpaccio packaged in a modified atmosphere
(American Society for Microbiology, 2017-06-29)
In this study, we present the draft genome sequence for Lactobacillus curvatus FLEC03. This strain was isolated from beef carpaccio packaged in a modified atmosphere. The draft genome will contribute to understanding the ...
