SNP variation in the promoter of the PRKAG3 gene and association with meat quality traits in pig
(BMC, 2012-07-25)
Background: The PRKAG3 gene encodes the γ3 subunit of adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase
(AMPK), a protein that plays a key role in energy metabolism in skeletal muscle. Non-synonymous ...
The genome of woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca)
(Nature Research, 2010-12-26)
The woodland strawberry, Fragaria vesca (2n = 2x = 14), is a versatile experimental plant system. This diminutive herbaceous
perennial has a small genome (240 Mb), is amenable to genetic transformat ...
Analysis of expressed sequence tags generated from full-length enriched cDNA libraries of melon
(BMC, 2011-05-20)
Background: Melon (Cucumis melo), an economically important vegetable crop, belongs to the Cucurbitaceae
family which includes several other important crops such as watermelon, cucumber, and pumpkin. ...
Comparative analysis of rosaceous genomes and the reconstruction of a putative ancestral genome for the family
(BMC, 2011-01-12)
Background: Comparative genome mapping studies in Rosaceae have been conducted until now by aligning
genetic maps within the same genus, or closely related genera and using a limited number of common ...
Gene and QTL detection in a three-way barley cross under selection by a mixed model with kinship information using SNPs
(Springer, 2011-03-04)
Quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection is
commonly performed by analysis of designed segregating
populations derived from two inbred parental lines, where
absence of selection, mutation and genetic ...
Role of AMPK signalling pathway during compensatory growth in pigs
(BioMed Central, 2018-09-17)
Background: The molecular basis of compensatory growth in monogastric animals has not yet been fully explored.
Herewith, in this study we aim to determine changes in the pig skeletal muscle transcriptome ...
Analysis of the melon (Cucumis melo) small RNAome by high-throughput pyrosequencing
(BMC, 2011-08-03)
Background: Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a commercially important fruit crop that is cultivated worldwide. The
melon research community has recently benefited from the determination of a complete draft ...
A consensus linkage map for molecular markers and Quantitative Trait Loci associated with economically important traits in melon (Cucumis melo L.)
(BMC, 2011-07-28)
Background: A number of molecular marker linkage maps have been developed for melon (Cucumis melo L.) over
the last two decades. However, these maps were constructed using different marker sets, thus, ...
Syntenic relationships between cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and melon (C. melo L.) chromosomes as revealed by comparative genetic mapping
(BMC, 2011-08-05)
Background: Cucumber, Cucumis sativus L. (2n = 2 × = 14) and melon, C. melo L. (2n = 2 × = 24) are two
important vegetable species in the genus Cucumis (family Cucurbitaceae). Both species have an Asian ...
Determination of the melon chloroplast and mitochondrial genome sequences reveals that the largest reported mitochondrial genome in plants contains a significant amount of DNA having a nuclear origin
(BMC, 2011-08-20)
Background: The melon belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family, whose economic importance among vegetable
crops is second only to Solanaceae. The melon has a small genome size (454 Mb), which makes it ...
