Background: High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is the most common and deadly subtype of ovarian cancer. Although most patients will initially respond to first-line treatment with a combination of surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy, up to a quarter will be resistant to treatment. We aimed to identify a new strategy to improve HGSC patient management at the time of cancer diagnosis (HGSC-1LTR).

Article Synopsis
  • Engineers in synthetic biology use diagrams to depict genetic sequences and their functional relationships, helping with organization and communication.
  • The Synthetic Biology Open Language Visual (SBOL Visual) serves as a standard to create a uniform way to represent these genetic designs.
  • Version 2.2 of SBOL Visual enhances the previous version by updating molecular glyphs to align with SBO terms, adding new glyphs for various biological components, and introducing different representations for simple chemicals.

Mating systems play a central role in determining population genetic structure and the methods to be used to develop new cultivars and preserve the variability of a crop. A Brassica napus crop called nabicol is grown in northwestern Spain. Knowledge on its mating system is needed in order to manage the germplasm correctly and design breeding strategies.

Kales (Brassica oleracea acephala group) are important vegetable crops in traditional farming systems in the Iberian Peninsula. They are grown throughout the year to harvest their leaves and flower buds. The glucosinolate content of kales is dependent upon the environmental factors, plant part examined, phenological stage of plant growth, and level of insect damage.
