Introduction: The tribes Cophomantini, Scinaxini, and Dendropsophini are anurans that belong to Hylidae, with wide distribution in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. The taxonomy and systematics of this family remain in a state of ongoing revision. Previous cytogenetic analyses of genera Boana, Bokermannohyla, Ololygon, Scinax, and ...

peer reviewed / Mice are the most widely used mammalian animal model worldwide. Their use presents many advantages, including our ability to manipulate their genome. Unfortunately, transgenic mice often need to be introgressed to transfer the transgene of interest in a specific mouse line. This time-consuming process can be shortened using the spee...

Background Mosquito control is needed to prevent dengue fever, which is mainly spread by Aedes albopictus in China. Application of insecticides is one of the main mosquito control methods; however, this approach can fail due to the knockdown resistance ( kdr ) gene mutation that causes decreased sensitivity to insecticides in Ae. albopictus . The k...

The Chinese monal (Lophophorus lhuysii, Galliformes) is a vulnerable and endemic bird from southwestern China. To better protect this species and increase its population size, genetic markers are urgently needed for investigation and conservation of both wild and captive populations. By using next-generation sequencing, we developed and characteriz...

Techniques for identifying varieties of crops used as spices and food additives have important implications for the safety of food production, prevention of false labeling, protection of breeders' rights, and prevention of theft or outflow to other countries. Presently, there are 16 varieties of Perilla frutescens in the variety registration system...

Background Microsatellites are a ubiquitous occurrence in prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes. Microsatellites have become one of the most popular classes of genetic markers due to their high reproducibility, multi-allelic nature, co-dominant mode of inheritance, abundance and wide genome coverage. We characterised microsatellites in the genomes and...

Biological invasions
Clear delimitation of management units is essential for effective management of invasive species. Analysis of population genetic structure of target species can improve identification and interpretation of natural and artificial barriers to dispersal. In Aotearoa New Zealand where the introduced ship rat (Rattus rattus) is a major threat to native ...

Human pathology
Microsatellite instability (MSI)/defective DNA mismatch repair (dMMR) represents an important molecular alteration with diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive value. The increasing interest toward this genetic alteration is given to the high response rate of MSI/dMMR tumors to immunotherapy. There are different cancers in the periampullary region t...
