Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertner, a perennial grass in the tribe Triticeae (Poaceae), is a wild relative of cereal crops that is suitable for genetic improvement. In this study, we first sequenced the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Ag. cristatum using Hiseq4000 PE150. The Ag. cristatum chloroplast genome is 135,554bp in length, has a typical quadripartite structure and contains 76 protein-coding...
Previous studies have highlighted the connections between neural tube defects (NTDs) and both thyroid hormones (TH) and vitamin A. However, whether the two hormonal signaling pathways interact in NTDs has remained unclear. We measured the expression levels of TH signaling genes in human fetuses with spinal NTDs associated with maternal hyperthyroidism as well as levels of retinoic acid (RA) signaling...
Our recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) has identified 105 genome-wide significant SNPs for milk production traits. Of these, one SNP (rs109661298) for milk fat percentage is located within the first intron of the bovine EEF1D gene on BTA14, thus that the EEF1D gene was considered as a novel candidate in dairy cattle. Until now, however, its genomic organization remains undetermined yet and...
Kengyilia Yen et J. L. Yang is a group of allohexaploid species with StYP genomic constitutions in the wheat tribe. To investigate the evolution and diversity of dimeric alpha-amylase inhibitor genes in the Kengyilia, forty-five homoeologous DAAI gene sequences were isolated from sampled Kengyilia species and analyzed together with those of its close relatives. These results suggested that (1) Kengyilia...
To estimate the phylogeny and molecular evolution of a single-copy gene encoding plastid acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Acc1) within the StH genome species, two Acc1 homoeologous sequences were isolated from nearly all the sampled StH genome species and were analyzed with those from 35 diploid taxa representing 19 basic genomes in Triticeae. Sequence diversity patterns and genealogical analysis suggested...
Δ6-Desaturase is the rate-limiting enzyme involved in highly unsaturated fatty acid (HUFA) biosynthesis. There is very little information on the evolution and functional characterization of Δ6Fad-a and Δ6Fad-b in common carp (Cyprinus carpio var. Jian). In the present study, the genomic sequences and structures of two putative Δ6-desaturase-like genes in common carp genome were obtained. We investigated...
