Bayesian forecasting of temporal gene expression by using an auto regressive panel data approach
Authors: M. Nascimento, F.F. e Silva, T. S�¡fadi, A.C.C. Nascimento, L.M.A. Barroso, L.S. Gl�³ria and B. de S. Carvalho
We propose and evaluate a novel approach for forecasting gene expression over non-observed times in longitudinal trials under a Bayesian viewpoint. One of the aims is to cluster genes that share similar expression patterns over time and then use this similarity to predict relative expression at time points of interest. Express.. Read More»

Differential gene expression patterns in the autogamous plant Hordeum euclaston (Poaceae)
Authors: J.E. Georg-Kraemer, C.A.S. Ferreira and S.S. Cavalli
Sib-seedlings of 95 strains of the strictly autogamous grass Hordeum euclaston were analyzed by horizontal polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis for four isoenzyme systems at a specific ontogenetic stage. We found differences in the activity of some genes among individuals of this species. Hence, an ontogenetic analysis was carri.. Read More»

Large-scale tissue-specific and temporal gene expression profiles in Pengze crucian carp
Authors: Y. Zheng, J.Z. Chen, H.P. Wang, M. Li, H.W. Liang, X.W. Bing and Z.Z. Wang
In the present study, the tissue-specific and temporal gene expression profiles of four catalogues of gonadal development-related genes (sex differentiation-related, steroid receptor, steroidogenic, and structural genes) were detected in nine tissues and during 11 successive developmental stages in the Pengze crucian carp (Pcc..

Expression patterns of the STAG gene in intact and regenerating planarians (Dugesia japonica)
Authors: Z.Q. Yuan, B.S. Zhao and J.Y. Zhang
We examined the spatial and temporal expression of the planarian Dugesia japonica STAG-related gene (DjStag), in both intact and regenerating planarians, by whole-mount in situ hybridization and relative quantitative real-time PCR. The first localized transcripts of DjStag were detected in the blastemas three days after amputa.. Read More»

Hair follicle transcriptome profiles during the transition from anagen to catagen in Cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
Authors: Y.X. Fan, R.B. Wu, X. Qiao, Y.J. Zhang, R.J. Wang, R. Su, J.H. Wu, Y. Dong and J.Q. Li
Previous molecular genetic studies of the goat hair life cycle have focused primarily on a limited number of genes and proteins. To identify additional genes that may play important roles in hair follicle cycle regulation, Illumina sequencing technology was used to catalog differential gene expression profiles in the hair growth cycle (anagen to catagen) ..

Age-dependent expression of the BPI gene in Sutai piglets
Authors: J. Zhu, C. Zi, Z.C. Wu, L. Liu, X.R. Zheng, X.M. Su, G.Q. Zhu, X.G. Huang, S.L. Wu and W.B. Bao
We compared and analyzed expression of the BPI gene of Sutai piglets ranging from newborn to post-weaning days 8, 18, 30, and 35 by the real-time PCR method, in order to determine if it is involved in protection against disease caused by ETEC F18. There was a significant difference between 18- and 35-day expression in the jejunum. There were also signific.. Read More»

De novo assembly, functional annotation, and marker development of Asian pear (Pyrus pyrifolia) fruit transcriptome through massively parallel sequencing
Authors: J.F. Li, Z. Gao, Y.S. Lou, M. Luo, S.R. Song, W.P. Xu, S.P. Wang and C.X. Zhang
This study investigated the Asian pear transcriptome using the RNA-Seq normalized fruit cDNA library to create a transcriptomic resource for unigene and marker discovery. Following the removal of lowquality reads, 127,085,054 trimmed reads were assembled de novo to yield 37,649 non-redundant unigenes with an average length of 599 bp. Alternative splicing .. Read More»

Selection of reference genes for expression analyses of red-fleshed sweet orange (Citrus sinensis)
Authors: T.T. Pinheiro, D.S. Nishimura, F.B. De Nadai, A. Figueira and R.R. Latado
Red-fleshed oranges (Citrus sinensis) contain high levels of carotenoids and lycopene. The growing consumer demand for products with health benefits has increased interest in these types of Citrus cultivars as a potential source of nutraceuticals. However, little is known about the physiology of these cultivars under Brazilian conditions. Transcriptome an.. Read More»

Differential expression of TLP, ERF1, and R2R3MYB in annual Medicago species under salinity conditions
Authors: F. Gharaghani, F. Rafiei, N. Mirakhorli and E. Ebrahimie
The present study was conducted to evaluate the responses of three annual Medicago species (M. truncatula, M. laciniata, and M. polymorpha) to salinity. We analyzed publicly available microarray data in NCBI pertaining to salinity-response genes in M. truncatula. Our data search identified Tubby C2 (TLP) and ethylene responsive transcription factor 1 (ERF.. Read More»

Transcriptomic differences of genes in the avian target of rapamycin (avTOR) pathway in a divergent line of meat-type chickens selected for feed efficiency
Authors: J. Lee and S.E. Aggrey
Avian target of rapamycin (avTOR) is a highly conserved serine-threonine kinase that serves as an intracellular energy and nutrient sensor and regulates cell division, growth, and apoptosis. The role of avTOR in mediating feed intake and growth in poultry is unknown. We studied avTOR signaling activities in duodenum and liver .. Read More»
