A cytogenetic analysis of 112 domestic dogs led to the detection of a new Robertsonian translocation (Robertsonian translocation 1/31). This translocation was restricted to the poodle breed; it occurred in high frequency and was encountered in the homozygous and heterozygous state.

Introduction: This study investigated the impact of the carrier on transferable blastocyst rate and live birth outcomes in couples with structural chromosomal abnormalities.

Methods: Couples were grouped into reciprocal translocation, Robertsonian translocation, or inversions groups, and clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Preimplantation genetic testing for chromosomal structural rearrangements (PGT-SR) was conducted, and pregnancy outcomes were compared.

GBS read coverage analysis identified a Robertsonian chromosome from two Thinopyrum subgenomes in wheat, conferring leaf and stripe rust resistance, drought tolerance, and maintaining yield stability. Agropyron glael (GLAEL), a Thinopyrum intermedium × Th. ponticum hybrid, serves as a valuable genetic resource for wheat improvement.

Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a multifactorial condition, encompassing genetic, anatomical, immunological, endocrine, as well as infectious and environmental factors; however, the etiology remains elusive in a substantial number of cases. Genetic factors linked to RPL include parental karyotype abnormalities (e.g.

Parental balanced translocation carriers do not have decreased usable blastulation rates or live birth rates compared with infertile controls.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the number of usable blastocysts between balanced translocation carriers and infertile controls undergoing IVF.
  • There were no significant differences in outcomes like usable blastulation rates, number of oocytes retrieved, or live birth rates between the two groups.
  • The primary finding showed that while blastulation rates were slightly lower for translocation carriers (59.5% vs. 62.1%), the rates of usable blastocysts remained similar at 47.2% for carriers and 50.0% for controls.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers tackled the challenge of studying structural variants (SVs) in repetitive genomic regions using advanced technologies like long-read sequencing and the gapless T2T assembly.
  • They successfully analyzed 13 complex cases, resolving 10 by identifying specific genomic breakpoints and structures that were previously difficult to sequence, including Robertsonian translocations and ring chromosomes.
  • The study highlighted new mechanisms for SV formation and provided insights into how these genome variations affect gene expression and potential implications for disease diagnosis and genome biology.
