Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstructing an ancestral genotype of two hexachlorocyclohexane-degrading Sphingobium species using metagenomic sequence data

TL;DR: The evolutionary acquisition mechanism of a xenobiotic degradation phenotype in response to environmental pollution is described, and for the first time the use of metagenomic data in ancestral genotype reconstruction is demonstrated, highlighting its potential to provide significant insight into the development of such phenotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cryptochrome 1 regulates growth and development in Brassica through alteration in the expression of genes involved in light, phytohormone and stress signalling.

TL;DR: It is shown that overexpression of CRY1 from Brassica napus (BnCRY1), an oilseed crop, results in short-statured Brassica transgenics, likely to be less prone to wind and water lodging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterization of transparent testa (tt) mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Estland) impaired in flavonoid biosynthetic pathway

TL;DR: Detailed analysis of four transparent testa (tt) mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana that lack anthocyanin pigments indicated that three are allelic to known mutants tt3, tt4 and ttg1 (mutants of DFR, CHS and TTG1 genes), while the fourth represents a new tt mutant (tt17).
Journal ArticleDOI

Arsenic rich Himalayan hot spring metagenomics reveal genetically novel predator-prey genotypes.

TL;DR: Metagenomic assembly analysis of the microbial mats of an arsenic rich, hot spring was performed to describe the genotypes of the predator Bdellovibrio and the ecogenetically adapted taxa Enterobacter, and analysed the population level evolutionary dynamics (taxonomical and functional) of reconstructed genotypes.
