Background: In this study, we present an in-depth analysis of the Eurasian minnow (Phoxinus phoxinus) genome, highlighting its genetic diversity, structural variations, and evolutionary adaptations. We generated an annotated haplotype-phased, chromosome-level genome assembly (2n = 50) by integrating high-fidelity (HiFi) long reads and chromosome conformation capture data (Hi-C).

Results: We achieved a haploid size of 940 megabase pairs (Mbp) for haplome 1 and 929 Mbp for haplome 2 with high scaffold N50 values of 36.

Purpose: To investigate fetal cardiac functions and remodeling in pregnancies conceived via in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Methods: This prospective case-control study included 40 singleton IVF pregnancies and 46 uncomplicated control pregnancies at 28-36 weeks of gestation. The IVF group consisted of pregnancies applied to the outpatient clinic, excluding those with anatomical or chromosomal abnormalities.

The cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae, is a major pest on Brassicaceae plants, causing significant yield losses annually. However, the lack of genomic resources has hindered progress in understanding this pest at the molecular level. Here, we present a high-quality, chromosomal-level genome assembly for B.

Cloning a Chloroplast Genome in and .

Biochemistry Department, Western University, London, Canada.

Chloroplast genomes present an alternative strategy for large-scale engineering of photosynthetic eukaryotes. Prior to our work, the chloroplast genomes of (204 kb) and (140 kb) had been cloned using bacterial and yeast artificial chromosome (BAC/YAC) libraries, respectively. These methods lack design flexibility as they are reliant upon the random capture of genomic fragments during BAC/YAC library creation; additionally, both demonstrated a low efficiency (≤ 10%) for correct assembly of the genome in yeast.

Insights into the genetics of body size in the Bull Terrier.

School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Sydney, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

The Bull Terrier (Miniature) and Bull Terrier are two varieties of a dog breed historically divided by size. We identify variety-associated chromosomal regions identified using stratified genome-wide association analysis of 69 Bull Terriers (Miniature) and 33 Bull Terriers. Next, we assess the significance of possible functional variants for body size using height (N = 1458) and weight (N = 1282) of Dog10K individuals with breed-representative metrics available.
