Genomic selection for resistance to one pathogenic strain of in blue mussel .

Introduction: The blue mussel is one of the major aquaculture species worldwide. In France, this species faces a significant threat from infectious disease outbreaks in both mussel farms and the natural environment over the past decade. Diseases caused by various pathogens, particularly spp.

FlourishCare Model of Integrated Care: The Validation of the Flourish Index-Revised.

Background And Objectives: This study validates the Flourish Index-Revised (FI-R), a tool evaluating integrated healthcare models. The original Flourish Index (FI) was developed in 2018 and has been refined to align with the FlourishCare (FC) Model (Model) for geriatric primary care.

Research Design And Methods: The Model provides integrated biopsychosocial healthcare to older adults.

Genetic architecture of acute hyperthermia resistance in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and genetic correlations with production traits.

Background: Selective breeding is a promising solution to reduce the vulnerability of fish farms to heat waves, which are predicted to increase in intensity and frequency. However, limited information about the genetic architecture of acute hyperthermia resistance in fish is available. Two batches of sibs from a rainbow trout commercial line were produced: the first (N = 1382) was phenotyped for acute hyperthermia resistance at nine months of age and the second (N = 1506) was phenotyped for main production traits (growth, body length, muscle fat content and carcass yield) at 20 months of age.

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated phospholipase C 2 knock-out tomato plants are more resistant to Botrytis cinerea.

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Phospholipase C2 knock-out tomato plants are more resistant to Botrytis cinerea than wild-type plants, with less ROS and an increase and reduction of (JA) and (SA)-response marker genes, respectively. Genome-editing technologies allow non-transgenic site-specific mutagenesis of crops, offering a viable alternative to traditional breeding methods. In this study we used CRISPR/Cas9 to inactivate the tomato Phospholipase C2 gene (SlPLC2).
