Authors: M.T. Venturini, L.R. Santos, C.I.A. Vildoso, V.S. Santos and E.J. Oliveira
Tolerant varieties can effectively control post-harvest physiological deterioration (PPD) of cassava, although knowledge on the genetic variability and inheritance of this trait is needed. The objective of this study was to estimate genetic parameters and identify sources of tolerance to PPD and their stability in cassava acce.. Read More»

Authors: Z.B. Li1, G. Dai1, J.B. Shangguan, Y.F. Ning,Y.Y. Li, R.B. Chen, Y.S. Huang andY. Yuan
The sea cucumber Holothuria scabra is an endangered species. In this study, nine new polymorphic microsatellite loci were developed and tested in 30 individuals. The number of alleles ranged from 2 to 5, and the observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.1200 to 0.7391 and from 0.2408 to 0.5983, respectively. No loci significantly deviated from ..

IDH1 and IDH2 mutations in different histologic subtypes and WHO grading gliomas in a sample from Northern Brazil
Authors: I.A. Pess�´a, F.E.S. Sagica, N.P. Anselmo, J.R.N. Brito an E.H.C. de Oliveira
Glioma is a term used to describe tumors derived from glial cells. These tumors are divided into subgroups based on the histological morphology and similarity of their differentiated glia cells. Traditionally, they are classified according to the World Health Organization and include astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, ependymomas, and oligoastrocytomas. Li.. Read More»

Association between rs1049673 polymorphism in CD36 and premature coronary heart disease
Authors: J.J. Che, Y.X. Shao, G.P. Li
Risk factors for premature coronary heart disease in China can be multiple; we investigated Chinese Han patients with premature coronary heart disease and a possible association with CD36 polymorphism at rs1049673, rs7755, and rs321159 sites. Outpatients were recruited according to chest X-ray coronary arteriography results; t.. Read More»

IL-6 gene promoter polymorphisms and risk of coronary artery disease in a Chinese population
Authors: G.Q. Sun, G.D. Wu, Y. Meng, B. Du and Y.B. Li
We investigated the relationships between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the interleukin (IL)-6 gene 174 G>C (rs1800795), 572 G>C (rs1800796), and 597 G/A (rs1800797) and coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in a Chinese population. This case-control study recruited 296 CAD patients and 327 controls between Janu.. Read More»

Cloning and association analysis of KIT and EDNRB polymorphisms with dominant white coat color in the Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides)
Authors: S.Q. Yan, C.Y. Bai, S.M. Qi, M.L. Li, S. Si, Y.M. Li and J.H. Sun
The Chinese raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides procyonoides) is one of the most important fur-bearing animal species. The dominant white individual, a coat color variant in farmed Chinese raccoon dog, shows a completely white phenotype over the entire body. The KIT and EDNRB genes have been reported to be associated with the dominant white coat color i.. Read More»

Authors: X.Y. Liang, X.Q. Zhang, S.Q. Bai, L.K. Huang, X.M. Luo, Y. Ji and L.F. Jiang
Chicory is a crop with economically important roles and is cultivated worldwide. The genetic diversity and relationship of 80 accessions of chicories and endives were evaluated by sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers to provide a theoretical basis for future breeding programs in China. The polymorphic rate wa.. Read More»
