Pneumoviruses: Molecular Genetics and Reverse Genetics
Pneumoviruses are responsible for significant respiratory disease in their hosts and represent a major problemfor human and animal health. Pneumoviruses are members of the family Paramyxoviridae, subfamilyPneumovirinae and the virus particles consist of a negative-sense, nonsegmented RNA genome within a helical nucleocapsid structure enveloped in a lipid membrane derived from the ho...
متن کاملForward and Reverse Genetics in Crop Breeding
The ability to identify, study, create and utilize genetic variation are arguably fundamental aspects in the development of human beings. Traditional, or forward , genetics has its roots in man’s fi rst attempts at the domestication of plants and animals. Novel and preferred traits such as the lack of seed shattering were selected from large populations and maintained for future propagation, le...
متن کاملReverse Genetics in Ecological Research
By precisely manipulating the expression of individual genetic elements thought to be important for ecological performance, reverse genetics has the potential to revolutionize plant ecology. However, untested concerns about possible side-effects of the transformation technique, caused by Agrobacterium infection and tissue culture, on plant performance have stymied research by requiring onerous ...
متن کاملReverse genetics tools in zebrafish: a forward dive into endocrinology.
The zebrafish is a powerful genetic model organism. In recent years, zebrafish has been increasingly used to model human diseases. Due to a number of recent technological advancements, the genetic tool box is now also stocked with sophisticated transgenic and reverse genetic tools. Here, we focus on both commonly used and recently established reverse genetic and transgenic tools available in ze...
متن کاملMale competition fitness landscapes predict both forward and reverse speciation.
Speciation is facilitated when selection generates a rugged fitness landscape such that populations occupy different peaks separated by valleys. Competition for food resources is a strong ecological force that can generate such divergent selection. However, it is unclear whether intrasexual competition over resources that provide mating opportunities can generate rugged fitness landscapes that ...
