ABSTRACT The primary principle underlying the application of genomics is that it has the most value for difficult and expensive to measure traits. These traits will differ between species and probably also between market...

Os últimos vinte anos caracterizaram-se pela proliferação de tecnologias que tornaram possível decifrar o genoma das espécies, localizar e identificar particularidades na sua seqüência, elucidar as suas funções ...

The soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, remains the most damaging pathogen of soybean worldwide. Genomic advances over the past two decades have transformed our understanding of both the nematode and its ho...

Abstract In response to the emerging threat of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors, insecticides are being repurposed for vector control or developed de novo. The longevity of disease control programs will require ...

Abstract State-supported research funding agencies are critical to the scientific enterprise. However, it remains unclear how funding agencies cooperate with academic communities to realize common scientific goals. Here,...

Genética genômica é um termo utilizado para representar o estudo de processos genéticos controladores de caracteres fenotípicos de herança complexa, a partir da análise conjunta de informação relativa a fenótip...

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), along with many other economically valuable species, belongs to the Solanaceae family. Understanding how plants in this family defend themselves against pathogens offers the opportunity of ...

Genomics will improve the efficiency of beef cattle genetic improvement programs through the incorporation of genomic predictions into traditional genetic evaluations. The global dairy cattle breeding industry has been c...

The molecular bases for the symbiosis of the amphibian skin microbiome with its host are poorly understood. Here, we used the odor-producer Pseudomonas sp. MPFS and the treefrog Boana prasina as a model to explore bacter...

Muskox (Ovibos moschatus, Zimmermann 1780), or Umingmak (in Inuktitut), is a critical component of the terrestrial Arctic ecosystem. In many regions, muskoxen are key to Inuit food security and important to cultural iden...

The recent technologies that have led to the new field of functional genomics (how the genome of an organism regulates homeostasis and responds to stimuli) are providing a clearer understanding of how organisms interact ...

Abstract Integrated chem-bio characterization of microbial strain libraries can streamline natural product discovery by prioritizing candidate producers. Here, we employ language- and transformer-based models to extract ...

Abstract The nematode Ditylenchus destructor comprises multiple haplotypes with distinct host preferences, while the genetic basis remains unclear. We generate three genomes (Haplotypes A, B, and C) using hybrid assembly...

Abstract Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are commonly used as probiotics; however, not all LAB strains have the same beneficial effects. To successfully use LAB as probiotics in canines, LAB species should originate from the ...

In addition to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the cryotolerant yeast species S. uvarum is also used for wine and cider fermentation but nothing is known about its natural history. Here we use a population genomics approach ...

Livestock genomics is aimed at dissecting the genetic control of variation in economically important trait, such as disease resistance and product yield/quality. Unraveling the genetic control of such complex traits rema...

Os requisitos nutricionais de larvas de peixes são ainda mal compreendidos, o que leva a altas mortalidades e problemas de qualidade no seu cultivo. Este trabalho pretende fazer uma revisão de novas metodologias de inv...

A expectativa de o crescimento populacional atingir 9 bilhões de habitantes em 2050 em adição às questões da sustentabilidade e do aquecimento global nos desafiam a aumentar a oferta de alimentos. Uma metodologia al...

Abstract Background Venom cocktails of cone snails are characterized by their dynamic composition and the rapid evolution of toxin-encoding genes due to various selective pressures. The integration of comparative genomic...

Abstract Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating public health threat in Africa, driven by high infectious disease burden, unregulated antimicrobial use, limited laboratory capacity, and fragmented sur...

Landscape heterogeneity and the host plant use are factors suggested to play determinant roles in shaping the evolutionary history of herbivorous insects. However, the role of the reconfiguration of host plants distribut...

Abstract With rapid advances in meat science in recent decades, changes in meat quality during the pre-slaughter phase of muscle growth and the post-slaughter process from muscle to meat have been investigated. Commonly ...
