Bemisia tabaci Gennadius biotypes B and Q are two of the most important worldwide agricultural insect pests. Genomic sequences of Type-2 B. tabaci chemosensory protein (BtabCSP2) were cloned and sequenced in B and Q biotypes, revealing key biotype-specific variations in the intron sequence. A Q260 sequence was found specifically in Q-BtabCSP2 and Cucumis melo LN692399, suggesting ancestral horizontal...
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...
Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and Bursaphelenchus mucronatus are migratory endoparasitic nematodes that live in pine trees. To gain insight into their molecular similarities and differences, transcriptomes of the two nematodes were analysed. A total of 23,765 and 21,782 contigs (>300bp) were obtained from B. xylophilus and B. mucronatus, respectively. More than 80% of the contigs could map to each...
Dicer, Argonaute and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase form the core components to trigger RNA silencing. Although tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a dicotyledon model plant, no systematic analysis and expression profiling of these genes in tomato has been undertaken previously. In this study, seven Dicer-like (SlDCLs), 15 Argonaute (SlAGOs) and six RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (SlRDRs) genes were identified...
The APOA5 −1131 T/C polymorphism (rs662799) exhibits a very strong association with elevated TG levels in different racial groups. High resolution melting (HRM) analysis with the use of unlabeled probes has shown to be a convenient and reliable tool to genotyping, but not yet been used for detecting rs662799 polymorphism. We applied the unlabeled probe HRM analysis and direct DNA sequencing to assay...
