POPULATION-WIDE MODELLING REVEALS PROSPECTS OF MARKER-ASSISTED SELECTION FOR PARASITIC MITE RESISTANCE IN HONEY BEES

Population-wide modelling reveals prospects of marker-assisted selection for parasitic mite resistance in honey bees

Abstract In 2019, a joint eight-variant model was published in which eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in seven Apis mellifera genes were associated with Varroa destructor drone brood resistance (DBR, i.e.mite non-reproduction in drone brood).As this model was derived from only one Darwinian Black Bee Box colony, it could not directly be

TRPS1 modulates chromatin accessibility to regulate estrogen receptor alpha (ER) binding and ER target gene expression in luminal breast cancer cells.

Common genetic variants in the repressive GATA-family transcription factor (TF) TRPS1 locus are sequal eclipse 5 battery associated with breast cancer risk, and luminal breast cancer cell lines are particularly sensitive to TRPS1 knockout.We introduced an inducible degron tag into the native TRPS1 locus within a luminal breast cancer cell line to i

Effect of single superphosphate fertilizer on survival and respiratory dynamics of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Cichlidae)

Background.Increasing global usage of inorganic fertilizers, including phosphate-based fertilizers has its negative google pixel 7 freedom consequences on the aquatic environment.Effects of single superphosphate fertilizer (SPF) remain unknown, particularly its influence on the respiratory dynamics of fish under continuous exposure.We investigated
