Article Synopsis
- Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is influenced by genetics, but traditional methods only partially explain its hereditary factors.
- Advances in genomic sequencing and transcriptomic studies, like RNA-sequencing and single-cell technologies, can help identify new biomarkers for T2D risk and complications.
- The article reviews recent transcriptomic research methods and discoveries related to T2D, while addressing challenges faced in these experiments.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the genetic factors influencing COVID-19 severity using a cohort of 840 patients from Russia, aiming to address challenges of cohort size and genome coverage in previous research.
- While no significant gene or pathway-level associations were found, the researchers identified eleven candidate loci linked to various quantitative traits in COVID-19 patients.
- Notably, a risk score derived from certain genetic variants was able to predict hospitalization severity and outcomes, showcasing the potential of using quantitative traits for identifying genetic risk factors in COVID-19 research.
Guar gum, a polysaccharide derived from guar seeds, is widely used in a variety of industrial applications, including oil and gas production. Although guar is mostly propagated in India, interest in guar as a new industrial legume crop is increasing worldwide, demanding the development of effective tools for marker-assisted selection. In this paper, we report a wide-ranging set of 4907 common SNPs and 327 InDels generated from RADseq genotyping data of 166 guar plants of different geographical origin.
