Gene editing in the context of an increasingly complex genome
(BioMed Central, 2018)
The reporting of the first draft of the human genome in 2000 brought with it much hope for the future in what was felt as a paradigm shift toward improved health outcomes. Indeed, we have now mapped the majority of variation ...
Genome sequence reveals that Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 possesses a large and diverse array of systems for rhizosphere function and host interaction
(BioMed Central, 2013)
Background: Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) isolated from the
sugar-beet rhizosphere. This bacterium has been extensively studied as a model strain for genetic regulation ...
Using the biocheck.ugent™ scoring tool in Irish farrow-to-finish pig farms: assessing biosecurity and its relation to productive performance
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2019-03-01)
Background
Biosecurity is one of the main factors affecting disease occurrence and antimicrobial use, and it is associated with performance in pig production. However, the importance of specific measures could vary depending ...
Characterisation of the complete mitochondrial genome of the insect-parasitic nematode heterorhabditis bacteriophora: an idiosyncratic gene order and the presence of multiple long non-coding regions
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2021-06)
We present here the complete mtDNA genome (mitogenome) of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, an important biological control agent of soil-dwelling insect pests in agriculture and horticulture. This is the first description ...
