Mango () is an economically and nutritionally important tropical/subtropical tree fruit crop. Most of the current commercial cultivars are selections rather than the products of breeding programs. To improve the efficiency of mango breeding, molecular markers have been used to create a consensus genetic map that identifies all 20 linkage groups in seven mapping populations. Polyembryony is an important mango trait, used for clonal propagation of cultivars and rootstocks. In polyembryonic mango cultivars, in addition to a zygotic embryo, several apomictic embryos develop from maternal tissue surrounding the fertilized egg cell. This trait has been associated with linkage group 8 in our consensus genetic map and has been validated in two of the seven mapping populations. In addition, we have observed a significant association between trait and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers for the vegetative trait of branch habit and the fruit traits of bloom, ground skin color, blush intensity, beak shape, and pulp color.

Homeobox genes (HOX), the master regulators, deploy a unique set of target genes to coordinate and orchestrate the spatiotemporal development of an organism. HOX encoded transcriptional factors regulate the expression of target genes by binding to the specific sequences on the genome. Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and Chromatin Immunoprecipitation with Sequencing (ChIP-Seq) are widely used to map and understand specific gene locus and global regulatory regions on the genome.

Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinases (MAP4Ks) are a class of highly conserved serine/threonine-protein kinases in eukaryotes. They participate in the typical MAPK cascade system and various signal transduction pathways regulating biological processes in plants, during stressful conditions. To date, genome-wide identification of MAP4Ks in cotton has not been reported.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which YWHAG (Tyrosine 3-Monooxygenase/Tryptophan 5-Monooxygenase Activation Protein Gamma) promotes metastasis in bladder cancer. Specifically, it seeks to elucidate the role of YWHAG in driving cancer cell invasion and its potential as a prognostic marker for bladder cancer progression.
Methods: The expression pattern of YWHAG in both primary and metastatic bladder cancer tissues was analyzed using immunohistochemistry (IHC) to determine its correlation with clinical stage and prognosis in bladder cancer patients.
