Efficient production of transgenic melon via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation
Authors: I. Bezirganoglu, S.Y. Hwang, J.F. Shaw and T.J. Fang
Oriental melon (Cucumis melo L. var. makuwa) is an important fruit for human consumption. However, this plant species is one of the most recalcitrant to genetic transformation. The lack of an efficient in vitro system limits the development of a reproducible genetic transformation protocol for Oriental melon. In this study, an.. Read More»

Bibliometric network analysis of glaucoma
Authors: L.-Y. Dong, M. Yin and X.-L. Kang
Elevated intraocular pressure is recognized as the principal risk factor for development of optic nerve head (ONH) injury. Lamina cribrosa (LC) cells and astrocytes are two types of cells in the ONH. We attempted to identify more target genes and predict their underlying molecular mechanisms. In this study, we performed meta-analysis of the data from two .. Read More»

Cytogenetic and anatomic behavior of cytochimeras and total polyploids in cassava
Authors: D.Y. Hashimoto-Freitas1 and N.M.A. Nassar2
Cassava periclinal cytochimeras, cultivars, and interspecific hybrid and polyploid types were studied in relation to embryonic, cytogenetic, and anatomical behavior. Their apical shoots, pollen grains, male and female buds, roots, stomata, and flowering period were analyzed. Chimeras exhibited increased size of L1 and L2 cells. Polyploidy led to enlargeme..

Genetic variability and phylogenetic aspects in species of the genus Macrobrachium
Authors: A.L. Guerra, A.V.B. Lima, R.V. Lucato J�ºnior, M.C. Chiachio, F.G. Taddei and L. Castiglioni
The genus Macrobrachium includes prawns, which are widely distributed in lakes, floodplains, and rivers in tropical and subtropical regions of South America. This genus presents nearly 210 known species with great ecological and economic importance. However, few studies are related to the biology of these crustaceans. In this .. Read More»

Geographical genetics of Pseudoplatystoma punctifer (Castelnau, 1855) (Siluriformes, Pimelodidae) in the Amazon Basin
Authors: M.P.C. Telles, R.G. Collevatti, R.S. Braga, L.B.S. Guedes, T.G. Castro, M.C. Costa, N.J. Silva-J�ºnior, R.B. Barthem and J.A.F. Diniz-Filho
Geographical genetics allows the evaluation of evolutionary processes underlying genetic variation within and among local populations and forms the basis for establishing more effective strategies for biodiversity conservation at the population level. In this study, we used explicit spatial analyses to investigate molecular ge.. Read More»

Proteomic response of Moniliophthora perniciosa exposed to pathogenesis-related protein-10 from Theobroma cacao
Authors: F.A.C. Silva1, C.P. Pirovani1, S. Menezes1, C. Pungartnik2, A.S. Santiago1, M.G.C. Costa1, F. Micheli3 and A.S. Gesteira4
TcPR-10, a member of the pathogenesis-related protein 10 family, was identified in EST library of interactions between Theobroma cacao and Moniliophthora perniciosa. TcPR-10 has been shown to have antifungal and ribonuclease activities in vitro. This study aimed to identify proteins that are differentially expressed in M. perniciosa in response to TcPR-10..

Dynamic changes in TAP1 expression levels in newborn to weaning piglets, and its association with Escherichia coli F18 resistance
Authors: J. Wang, Y. Liu, W.H. Dong, Y.J. Huo, X.G. Huang, S.L. Wu and W.B. Bao
The transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) transports peptides from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum for subsequent loading onto the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. This study showed the dynamic changes in the TAP1 expression level in newborn to weaning piglets. Tissue expressi.. Read More»

New microsatellite markers for the neotropical malaria vector Anopheles nuneztovari sensu lato A.S.
Authors: A.S. Cunha-Machado and V.M. Scarpassa
Anopheles nuneztovari sensu lato consists of cryptic species and genetic lineages, one of which is an important human malaria vector in the northern part of South America. Population structure and evolutionary genetics studies may help in the definition and delimitation of the species and lineages within this species complex, which is relevant information.. Read More»

Marker-assisted selection in breeding silkworm strains with high silk production and resistance to the densonucleosis virus
Authors: C.X. Hou1, P.J. Sun1, X.J. Guo1,2, Y.P. Huang3 and M.W. Li1,2
In the silkworm (Bombyx mori), resistance to the Zhenjiang (China) strain of the densonucleosis virus (DNV-Z) is controlled by the recessive gene nsd-Z (non-susceptible to DNV-Z), which is linked to 7 simple-sequence repeat markers. Marker-assisted evaluation and selection of DNV-Z-resistant silkworms were used for predicting DNV-resistance in backcrossed.. Read More»
