p. atlantica subsp. kurdica, with the local name of baneh, is a wild medicinal plant which grows in kurdistan, iran.  the identification of resistance gene analogs holds great promise for the development of resistant cultivars. a pcr approach with degenerate primers designed according to conserved nbs-lrr (nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat) regions of known disease-resistance (r) gene...

The RcmdrPlugin.SCDA plug-in package is discussed. It integrates three R packages in the R commander interface: SCVA (for Single-Case Visual Analysis), SCRT (for Single-Case Randomization Tests), and SCMA (for Single-Case Meta-Analysis). This way the plug-in package covers three important steps in the analysis of single-case data.

UNLABELLED Top scoring pairs (TSPs) are pairs of genes whose relative rankings can be used to accurately classify individuals into one of two classes. TSPs have two main advantages over many standard classifiers used in gene expression studies: (i) a TSP is based on only two genes, which leads to easily interpretable and inexpensive diagnostic tests and (ii) TSP classifiers are based on gene ra...

hopA mutants, which have been suggested to be defective in mini-F plasmid partitioning (H. Niki, C. Ichinose, T. Ogura, H. Mori, M. Morita, M. Hasegawa, N. Kusukawa, and S. Hiraga, J. Bacteriol. 170:5272-5278, 1988), were found to carry mutations in the gyrB gene, coding for the B subunit of DNA gyrase. In gyrB(HopA) mutants, relaxation of the superhelicity of plasmids, increased IncG incompati...

This additional file accompanies our main article Eigengene networks for studying the relationships between co-expression modules. Here we give a more detailed description of the simulation of gene expression data we used in the simulation study of consensus module detection. The simulation code, written in R, can be downloaded from our website http://www.genetics.ucla.edu/labs/horvath/Coexpres...

Plant resistance genes (R-genes) drive the immune responses of crops against specific pathotypes disease-causing organisms. Over time, genetic diversity in R-genes and R-pseudogenes has arisen among different rice varieties. This bioinformatics study was carried out to (i) predict full sets candidate nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat (NLR) present six genomes; (ii) detect variation wi...
