Journal ArticleDOI
The Earth BioGenome project: opportunities and challenges for plant genomics and conservation.
TL;DR: This Perspective discusses the opportunities and potential limitations of the Earth BioGenome Project with a plant focus, and highlights the necessity of phylogenomic methods that are aware of differences in genome complexity and quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arabidopsis and relatives as models for the study of genetic and genomic incompatibilities
Kirsten Bomblies,Detlef Weigel +1 more
TL;DR: An important path to plant speciation is via formation of polyploids, and this can be investigated in the young allotetraploid species A. arenosa, and recent progress has been made in discovering the genes underlying both F1 and F2 breakdown.
Journal ArticleDOI
EMS Mutagenesis of Arabidopsis Seed.
Detlef Weigel,Jane Glazebrook +1 more
TL;DR: In this protocol, EMS is used at concentrations that induce multiple point mutations in each plant, such that mutant alleles of a specific locus are found at a rate of ~1 in 2000-5000 M(2) plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Proposal Regarding Best Practices for Validating the Identity of Genetic Stocks and the Effects of Genetic Variants
TL;DR: It is estimated that up to one-third of cell lines are contaminated with other cell lines or are misidentified; in addition, repeated passaging substantially changes cell line properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved Reference Genome Uncovers Novel Sex-Linked Regions in the Guppy (Poecilia reticulata).
Bonnie A. Fraser,James R. Whiting,Josephine R. Paris,Cameron J. Weadick,Paul J. Parsons,Deborah Charlesworth,Roberta Bergero,Felix Bemm,Margarete Hoffmann,Verena A. Kottler,Chang Liu,Chang Liu,Christine Dreyer,Detlef Weigel +13 more
TL;DR: A new guppy reference genome assembly from a male is presented, using long-read PacBio single-molecule real-time sequencing and chromosome contact information and closes gaps and corrects mis-assemblies found in the short-read female-derived guppy genome.
