Identification of suitable reference genes for studying gene expression in cucumber plants subjected to abiotic stress and growth regulators

TL;DR: The authors of this study assume that the novel cucumber reference genes determined will enable better normalization and quantification of transcript levels in future expression studies on cucumber plants.

Cucumber: Cucumis sativus L.

T. Tatlioglu
TL;DR: The use of this vegetable is highlighted and its cytology, genetics, germplasm resources, and reproductive biology are reviewed and techniques applicable to the improvement of cucumber are described.

Balancing selection in species with separate sexes: insights from fisher's geometric model

TL;DR: It is shown that balancing selection is common under biologically plausible conditions and that sex differences in selection or sex-by-genotype effects of mutations can each increase opportunities for balancing selection.

Centromere repositioning in cucurbit species: Implication of the genomic impact from centromere activation and inactivation

TL;DR: Both centromere activation and inactivation in cucurbit species were associated with a gain/loss of a large amount of pericentromeric heterochromatin.
