Hornworts, one of the three bryophyte phyla, show some of the deepest divergences in extant land plants, with some families separated by more than 300 million years. Previous hornwort genomes represented only one genus, limiting the ability to infer evolution within hornworts and their early land plant ancestors. Here we report ten new chromosome-scale genomes representing all hornwort families and most of the genera.

Background: The Roma population are an endogamous, genetically isolated, minority population who migrated from North-Western India to Europe from the 10th Century throughout the Byzantine period and continues to the present day. Approximately 10-12 million Romani people reside in segregated settlements in Europe, and smaller populations live in North America and China. In addition to the endogamy, they also practice consanguinity.

Introduction: Cancer has emerged as one of the leading causes of fatality all over the world. Phytoconstituents are being studied for their synergistic effects, which include disease prevention by altering molecular pathways and immunomodulation without side effects. The present experiment aims to explore the cancer preventive activities of Linn leaves extract in skin cancer cell lines (A431) and colon cancer cell lines (COLO 320DM)).

Article Synopsis
  • The disorder discussed leads to autosomal recessive microcephaly and chorioretinopathy, recently identified as a syndrome due to distinct eye-related symptoms and overlapping features like short stature and microcephaly.
  • A case study details the first Indian family displaying this disorder, where an affected child and fetal sibling shown to have microcephaly and brain abnormalities underwent extensive genomic testing confirming their condition.
  • The findings reveal novel genetic variants and underscore the complexity of diagnosis, emphasizing the importance of whole genome sequencing in rare conditions.

Background: One of the key steps in arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) is getting the femoral tunnel at the right position to attach the graft. While the correct position has been described as a low and posterior position behind the bifurcate ridge on the medial surface of lateral femoral condyle, to reproducibly achieve it more than one technique is being used by surgeons. There are no randomized studies in literature which have evaluated the efficacy of these in a surgeon's hand.
