Candidate gene discovery for salt tolerance in rice ( L.) at the germination stage based on genome-wide association study.

Salt stress affects rice seed germination and seedling formation, seriously restricting rice production. Screening salt-tolerant rice varieties and analyzing the genetic mechanisms underlying salt tolerance are therefore very important to ensure rice production. In this study, 313 ssp.

A lymph node metastasis-related protein-coding genes combining with long noncoding RNA signature for breast cancer survival prediction.

Integrating protein-coding gene (PCG) with long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) expression profiles, our aim is to identify a multidimensional transcriptome model that can predict individual prognosis of patients with breast cancer (BRCA). After diverse bioinformatics and statistical analyses, we obtained gene expression profiles of 1,016 BRCA samples from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and constructed a prognostic signature, which is composed of four PCGs (TFCP2, LRRC75B, PROSER2, and STOML1) and one lncRNA (AL355592.1).
