Abstract:
Several geographically isolated populations of Tibetan pigs inhabit the high-altitude environment of the Tibetan Plateau. Their genetic relationships, contribution to the pool of genetic diversity, and their origin of domestication are unclear. In this study, whole-genome re-sequencing data from 10 geographically isolated Tibetan pig populations were collected and analyzed. Population genetic analyses revealed limited genetic differentiation among the Tibetan pig populations. Evidence from deleterious variant analysis indicated that population-specific deleterious variants were the major compo

ABSTRACT Multiple reassortment events between different subtypes of endemic avian influenza viruses have increased the genomic diversity of influenza viruses circulating in poultry in southern China. Gene exchange from the natural gene pool to poultry has contributed to this increase in genetic diversity. However, the role of domestic ducks as an interface between the natural gene pool and terrestrial poultry in the influenza virus ecosystem has not been fully characterized.

Abstract:
In recent years, the genetic component of many general common diseases has been considered from the point of view of evolutionary context: asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cancer, obesity, diabetes. The genetic history of populations leads to the accumulation of specific frequencies. Modern susceptibility to common pathological phenotypes could have had a certain adaptive significance in the past during the dispersal of humans across the globe. Of particular interest are diseases with phenotypes associated with cognitive impairment, such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, bip

The Pm3 gene confers resistance against wheat powdery mildew. Studies of Pm3 diversity have shown that Pm3 alleles isolated from southern populations of wild emmer wheat located in Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, and Syria are more diverse and more distant from bread wheat alleles than alleles from the northern wild wheat populations located in Turkey, Iran, and Iraq. Therefore, southern populations from Israel were studied extensively to reveal novel Pm3 alleles that are absent from the cultivated gene pool. Candidate Pm3 genes were isolated via a polymerase chain reaction cloning approach. Known an

ABSTRACT Male mice lacking expression of Plzf, a DNA sequence-specific transcriptional repressor, show progressive germ cell depletion due to exhaustion of the spermatogonial stem cell population.

Here we show that Plzf directly represses the transcription of kit, a hallmark of spermatogonial differentiation. Plzf represses both endogenous kit expression and expression of a reporter gene under the control of the kit promoter region. A discrete sequence of th

North American strains UCDFST 52-225, UCDFST 61-359, UCDFST 61-220, 95-3, and UCDFST 62-186 had very high pectinolytic activity, comparable to or even higher than that of the experimentally obtained tetraploid strain S.
