Abstract Understanding the genetic composition and mating systems of edge populations provides important insights into environmental demographic factors shaping species’ distribution ranges. We analysed samples mangrove Avicennia marina from Vietnam, northern Philippines Australia, with microsatellite markers. compared diversity structure in (Southeast Asia, Southern Australia) core (North Eastern populations, also our results previously published data southern populations. Comparisons...
Most modern citrus cultivars have an interspecific origin. As a foundational step towards deciphering the genome structures, reference whole sequence was produced by International Citrus Genome Consortium from haploid derived Clementine mandarin. The availability of saturated genetic map identified as essential prerequisite to assist assembly. is believed be 'Mediterranean' mandarin × sweet orange hybrid, and likely arose hybridizations between pummelo gene pools. primary goals present study...
Abstract Biodiversity, phylogeography and population genetic studies will be revolutionized by access to large data sets thanks next‐generation sequencing methods. In this study, we develop an easy cost‐effective protocol for in‐solution enrichment hybridization capture of complete chloroplast genomes applicable at deep‐multiplexed levels. The uses cheap in‐house species‐specific probes developed via long‐range PCR the entire chloroplast. Barcoded libraries are constructed, chloroplasts is...
Large ex situ collections require approaches for sampling manageable amounts of germplasm in-depth characterization and use. We present here a large diversity survey in sorghum with 3367 accessions 41 reference nuclear SSR markers. Of 19 alleles on average per locus, the largest numbers were concentrated central eastern Africa. Cultivated appeared structured according to geographic regions race within region. A total 13 groups variable size distinguished. The peripheral western Africa,...
Sustainable food production in the context of climate change necessitates diversification agriculture and a more efficient utilization plant genetic resources. Fonio millet (Digitaria exilis) is an orphan African cereal crop with great potential for dryland agriculture. Here, we establish high-quality genomic resources to facilitate fonio improvement through molecular breeding. These include chromosome-scale reference assembly deep re-sequencing 183 cultivated wild Digitaria accessions,...

Population structure, extent of linkage disequilibrium (LD) as well signatures selection were investigated in sorghum using a core sample representative worldwide diversity. A total 177 accessions genotyped with 1122 informative physically anchored DArT markers. The properties DArTs to describe genetic structure compared those SSRs and previously published RFLP Model-based (STRUCTURE software) Neighbor-Joining diversity analyses led the identification 6 groups confirmed previous evolutionary...
Bolivia is one of the most endemic countries for Chagas disease. Data 2005 shows that incidence around 1.09‰ inhabitants and seroprevalence in children under 15 ranged from 10% urban areas to 40% rural areas. In this article, we report results obtained during implementation congenital program, biggest casuistry disease, led by National Program Belgian cooperation 2004 2009. The program strategy was based on serological pregnancy follow up born positive mothers until year old; if positive,...
Background Acid soils comprise up to 50% of the world's arable lands and in these areas aluminum (Al) toxicity impairs root growth, strongly limiting crop yield. Food security is thereby compromised many developing countries located tropical subtropical regions worldwide. In sorghum, SbMATE, an Al-activated citrate transporter, underlies AltSB locus on chromosome 3 confers Al tolerance via release. Methodology Population structure was studied 254 sorghum accessions representative diversity...

Modern rice cultivars are adapted to a range of environmental conditions and human preferences. At the root this diversity is marked genetic structure, owing multiple foundation events. Admixture recurrent introgression from wild sources have played upon base produce myriad adaptations existing today. Genome-wide studies bring support idea, but understanding history nature particular requires identification specific patterns exchange. In study, we explore haplotype similarity along genomes...
• Premise of the study: Discrepancies in terms genotyping data are frequently observed when comparing simple sequence repeat (SSR) sets across technologies and laboratories. This technical concern introduces biases that hamper any synthetic studies or comparison genetic diversity between collections. To prevent this for Sorghum bicolor , we developed a control kit 48 SSR markers. Methods Results: One hundred seventeen markers were selected along genome to provide coverage length all 10...
Abstract Sorghum has shown the adaptability necessary to sustain its improvement during time and geographical extension despite a genetic foundation constricted by domestication bottlenecks. Initially domesticated in northeastern part of sub-Saharan Africa several millenia ago, sorghum quickly spread throughout Africa, Asia. We performed phylogeographic analysis sequence diversity for six candidate genes grain quality (Shrunken2, Brittle2, Soluble starch synthaseI, Waxy, Amylose extender1,...
Background Community engagement is recognized as a vital component of health-related research and programs, particularly during infectious disease outbreaks epidemics. Despite the importance engaging communities in response to COVID-19, relatively little has examined how this was (or not) achieved, even less low- middle-income countries. This article describes community that accompanied efforts strengthen COVID-19 diagnosis treatment part ECO Project Cochabamba, Bolivia highlights lessons...
