TL;DR: High-throughput DNA sequencing was used to estimate genome-wide heterozygosity based on over 10,000 loci and found it to accurately reflect inbreeding, providing the strongest evidence to date of an HFC being due to inbreeding depression in a natural population lacking a pedigree.
Abstract: Proxy measures of genome-wide heterozygosity based on approximately 10 microsatellites have been used to uncover heterozygosity fitness correlations (HFCs) for a wealth of important fitness traits in natural populations. However, effect sizes are typically very small and the underlying mechanisms remain contentious, as a handful of markers usually provides little power to detect inbreeding. We therefore used restriction site associated DNA (RAD) sequencing to accurately estimate genome-wide heterozygosity, an approach transferrable to any organism. As a proof of concept, we first RAD sequenced oldfield mice (Peromyscus polionotus) from a known pedigree, finding strong concordance between the inbreeding coefficient and heterozygosity measured at 13,198 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). When applied to a natural population of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina), a weak HFC for parasite infection based on 27 microsatellites strengthened considerably with 14,585 SNPs, the deviance explained by heterozygosity increasing almost fivefold to a remarkable 49%. These findings arguably provide the strongest evidence to date of an HFC being due to inbreeding depression in a natural population lacking a pedigree. They also suggest that under some circumstances heterozygosity may explain far more variation in fitness than previously envisaged.

TL;DR: The suitability of the p SG5 vector family for mutating chromosomal genes by gene disruption was demonstrated: pBN10, a pSG5 derivative containing an internal fragment of the phosphinothricyl-alanyl-alanine (PTT) resistance gene pat, was integrated into the chromosomal pat gene of the PTT-producer Streptomyces viridochromogenes thus inactivating PTT resistance.
Abstract: Replication of the Streptomyces ghanaensis plasmid pSG5 was shown to be temperature sensitive. The pSG5 replicon is stably inherited at temperatures below 34° C, but is lost at incubation temperatures above this. A family of cloning vectors was constructed using the pSG5 minimal replicon and different marker genes. The vectors obtained are small in size, have an intermediate copy number, possess a broad host range and are compatible with some other streptomycete vector systems. By increasing the incubation temperature, these vectors can be eliminated from their host cells very efficiently. The suitability of the pSG5 vector family for mutating chromosomal genes by gene disruption was demonstrated: pBN10, a pSG5 derivative containing an internal fragment of the phosphinothricyl-alanyl-alanine (PTT) resistance gene pat, was integrated into the chromosomal pat gene of the PTT-producer Streptomyces viridochromogenes thus inactivating PTT resistance. The integrated pBN10 plasmid was rescued from the chromosome, together with an adjacent fragment carrying DNA of the PTT biosynthetic cluster.

TL;DR: The missense mutation L967Q in Vps54 in the wobbler mouse, an animal model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is identified and a lethal allele, Vps 54β-geo is characterized, indicating that VPS54 has an essential role in these processes.
Abstract: Vacuolar-vesicular protein sorting (Vps) factors are involved in vesicular trafficking in eukaryotic cells. We identified the missense mutation L967Q in Vps54 in the wobbler mouse, an animal model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and also characterized a lethal allele, Vps54(beta-geo). Motoneuron survival and spermiogenesis are severely compromised in the wobbler mouse, indicating that Vps54 has an essential role in these processes.
