The American cranberry ( Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) is an iconic North fruit crop of great cultural and economic importance. Cranberry can be considered a model due to its unique nutrient composition, overlapping generations, recent domestication, both sexual asexual reproduction modes, the existence cross-compatible wild species. Development molecular resources started very recently; however, further genetic studies are now being limited by lack high-quality genome assembly. Here, we...
The environmental deterioration produced by heavy metals derived from anthropogenic activities has gradually increased. worldwide dissemination of toxic in crop soils represents a threat for sustainability and biosafety agriculture requires strategies the recovery metal-polluted soils. biorestoration using technologies that combine plants microorganisms gained attention recent decades due to beneficial synergistic effects its biotic interactions. In this context, native metal-resistant plant...
RNA-seq experiments estimate the number of genes expressed in a transcriptome as well their relative frequencies. However, an undetermined can remain undetected due to low expression sample size (sequence depth). Estimation true is essential order determine which are exclusively specific tissues or under particular conditions. A reliable also required accurately measure changes and predict sequencing depth needed increase proportion detected genes. This problem analogous ecological sampling...
Abstract Yeasts are a diverse group of fungal microorganisms that widely used to produce fermented foods and beverages. In Mexico, open fermentations obtain spirits from agave plants. Despite the prevalence this traditional practice throughout country, yeasts have only been isolated studied limited number distilleries. To systematically describe diversity yeast species fermentations, here we generate YMX‐1.0 culture collection by isolating 4524 strains 68 sites with climatic, geographical,...
Epigenetic regulation is a key component of stress responses, acclimatization and adaptation processes in plants. DNA methylation stable mark plausible for the inheritance epigenetic traits, such that it potential scheme plant breeding. However, effect modulators as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), methylome status has not been elucidated. A transgenic tobacco model to CchGLP gene displayed high H2O2 endogen levels correlated with biotic abiotic stresses resistance. The present study aimed...

Candida maltosa is closely related to important pathogenic species, especially C. tropicalis and albicans, but it has been rarely isolated from humans. For this reason, through comparative studies, could be a powerful model understand the genetic underpinnings of pathogenicity species. Here, we generated cohesive assembly genome developed engineering tools that will facilitate studying species at molecular level. We used combination short long-read sequencing build polished genomic draft...
From yeasts to humans, introgressive hybridization significantly influences the evolutionary history of living organisms by introducing new genetic diversity. Strains Saccharomyces cerevisiae worldwide exhibit introgressions from sister species S. paradoxus , despite average sequence identity between these being lower than 90%. While isolates Neotropics are known for their high levels introgression, events leading unusually prevalence them remain unclear. Here, we sequenced 216 in open agave...
SARS-CoV-2 variants surveillance is a worldwide task that has been approached with techniques such as Next Generation Sequencing (NGS); however, this technology not widely available in developing countries because of the lack equipment and limited funding science. An option to deploy RT-qPCR screening test which aids analysis higher number samples, shorter time at lower cost. In study, present samples positive for were identified mutation kit later confirmed by NGS. A sample an abnormal...

Polyamines are organic and aliphatic molecules essential for the growth, development, survival of both eukaryotes prokaryotes. In fungi, polyamines play a crucial role in cellular differentiation pathogenesis. Since fungi animals closely related evolutionarily, can be easily genetically manipulated lab, they serve as excellent models studying polyamine metabolism molecular mechanisms controlled by these biomolecules. Although has been extensively studied model such Saccharomyces cerevisiae...
Candida dubliniensis is the most closely related species to C. albicans , one of leading causes fungal infections in humans. However, despite sharing many characteristics, significantly less pathogenic. To better understand molecular underpinnings these dissimilarities, we focused on regulation filamentation, a developmental trait fundamental for host colonization. We generated collection 44 null mutants transcription regulators whose orthologs had been previously implicated filamentous...
Plants require effective sensing and responses to environmental stimuli, for example in the case of biotic abiotic stresses. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are well-recognised key signal molecules stress response. In previous work our group, several transgenic tobacco lines were generated constitutively expressing a germin-like gene from Capsicum chinense (CchGLP), producing higher endogen levels hydrogen peroxide that correlated with tolerance geminivirus infections drought stress....
