The genome of black cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa (Torr. & Gray)

Gerald A. Tuskan, +115 more
- 15 Sep 2006 - 
TL;DR: The draft genome of the black cottonwood tree, Populus trichocarpa, has been reported in this paper, with more than 45,000 putative protein-coding genes identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome of Nectria haematococca: contribution of supernumerary chromosomes to gene expansion.

TL;DR: Although the origin(s) of the extra genes and the supernumerary chromosomes is not known, the gene expansion and its large genome size are consistent with this species' diverse range of habitats.

The genome of black cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa (Torr. & Gray) - eScholarship

TL;DR: Analyzing the draft genome of the black cottonwood tree, Populus trichocarpa, revealed a whole-genome duplication event; about 8000 pairs of duplicated genes from that event survived in the Populus genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

A fungal gene for antibiotic resistance on a dispensable ("B") chromosome.

TL;DR: A family of cytochrome P-450 (Pda) genes in the pathogenic fungus Nectria haematococca is responsible for the detoxification of the phytoalexin pisatin, an antimicrobial compound produced by garden pea (Pisum sativum L) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of Fusarium circinatum

TL;DR: A strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGL1(pPK2) transformed three different isolates of F. circinalum with an efficiency of 2-150 transformants 10 −5 conidia, and the T-DNA was integrated into the genome and was stable through mitotic and meiotic cell divisions.
