- 1From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Despite a high genetic similarity to peach, almonds (Prunus dulcis) have a fleshless fruit and edible kernel, produced as a crop for human consumption. While the release of peach genome v1.0 provides an...
- 2From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground The nutrient-sensing Tor pathway governs cell growth and is conserved in nearly all eukaryotic organisms from unicellular yeasts to multicellular organisms, including humans. Tor is the target of the...
- 3From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) can be used as genetic markers for applications such as genetic diversity studies or genetic mapping. New technologies now allow genotyping hundreds to thousands of...
- 4From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground elicobacter pylori infection is associated with several gastro-duodenal inflammatory diseases of various levels of severity. To determine whether certain combinations of genetic markers can be used to...
- 5From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Pulmonary surfactant is required for lung function at birth and throughout life. Lung lipid and surfactant homeostasis requires regulation among multi-tiered processes, coordinating the synthesis of...
- 6From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Cucumber, Cucumis sativus L. is an important vegetable crop worldwide. Until very recently, cucumber genetic and genomic resources, especially molecular markers, have been very limited, impeding progress of...
- 7From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground The ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor has emerged as the primary pest of domestic honey bees (Apis mellifera). Here we present an initial survey of the V. destructor genome carried out to advance our...
- 8From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) persistently infects intestines and mesenteric lymph nodes leading to a prolonged subclinical disease. The MAP genome sequence was published in 2005, yet its...

Testes and brain gene expression in precocious male and adult maturing Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
Background The male Atlantic salmon generally matures in fresh water upon returning after one or several years at sea. Some fast-growing male parr develop an alternative life strategy where they sexually mature... - 10From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Two-way hierarchical clustering, with results visualized as heatmaps, has served as the method of choice for exploring structure in large matrices of expression data since the advent of microarrays. While...
- 11From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Mitochondrial genomes provide a rich source of molecular variation of proven and widespread utility in molecular ecology, population genetics and evolutionary biology. The tapeworm genus Taenia includes a...
- 12From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground The molecular mechanisms that modify genome structures to give birth and death to alleles are still not well understood. To investigate the causative chromosomal rearrangements, we took advantage of the...
- 13From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Rodents represent a high-risk reservoir for the emergence of new human pathogens. The recent completion of the 2.3 Mb genome of Bartonella grahamii, one of the most prevalent blood-borne bacteria in wild...
- 14From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Modern biomedical research depends on a complete and accurate proteome. With the widespread adoption of new sequencing technologies, genome sequences are generated at a near exponential rate, diminishing...
- 15From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground The Affymetrix GeneChip is a widely used gene expression profiling platform. Since the chips were originally designed, the genome databases and gene definitions have been considerably updated. Thus, more...
- 16From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Blood feeding evolved independently in worms, arthropods and mammals. Among the adaptations to this peculiar diet, these animals developed an armament of salivary molecules that disarm their host's...
- 17From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Discrimination between clinical and environmental strains within many bacterial species is currently underexplored. Genomic analyses have clearly shown the enormous variability in genome composition...
- 18From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground The size and repetitive nature of the Rhipicephalus microplus genome makes obtaining a full genome sequence fiscally and technically problematic. To selectively obtain gene-enriched regions of this tick's...
- 19From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Computational methods for identifying selenoproteins have been developed rapidly in recent years. However, it is still difficult to identify the open reading frame (ORF) of eukaryotic selenoprotein gene,...
- 20From: BMC Genomics. (Vol. 11) Peer-ReviewedBackground Drosophila females commit tremendous resources to egg production and males produce some of the longest sperm in the animal kingdom. We know little about the coordinated regulation of gene expression...
