Obesity is heritable and predisposes to many diseases. To understand the genetic basis of obesity better, here we conduct a genome-wide association study and Metabochip meta-analysis of body mass index (BMI), a measure commonly used to... more
Recent enhancement of the pool of known molecular markers for avocado has allowed the construction of the first moderately dense genetic map for this species. Over 300 SSR markers have been characterized and 163 of these were used to... more
In humans, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been shown to be an effective and thorough approach for identifying polymorphisms associated with disease phenotypes. Here, we describe the first study to perform a genome-wide... more
("For sample chapter and browsing see: http://www.palgrave.com/products/title.aspx?pid=530423). In this project I reflect on how the Southern Cone postdictatorship generations reshape the collective memory of the dictatorial past through... more
The mission of the Lake Ontario Coastal Initiative (LOCI), encompassing all New York State North Coast stakeholders from the Niagara River to the St. Lawrence River, is to enlist and retain broad public commitment for remediation,... more
Die Ars memorativa war im spätmittelalterlichen Krakau sehr populär. Das Fach wurde vertreten von ausländischen und polnischen Gelehrten, zum Beispiel: Jacobus Publicius, Konrad Celtis, Thomas Murner, Johannes Enclen de Cusa (Cusanus),... more
Staphylococcus aureus has been recognized as a major human pathogen and is the major cause of nosocomial infections. Gamma-toxin, leukocidin and other bi-component toxins are a family of proteins encoded by the hlg and luk-PV,... more
Premessa un’analisi dei termini stereotipo e pregiudizio, si cercherà di collegare questi concetti (d’ambito anzitutto psicologico e sociologico) all’ambito retorico-linguistico e giuridico. Qui si verificherà come determinate tecniche di... more
We report the development of nine microsatellite markers in globe artichoke (Cynara cardunculus L. var. scolymus). Four markers were obtained from sequences available in GenBank and five were isolated using a biotin/streptavidin capture... more
Molecular Breeding 6: 553568, 2000. © 2000 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. ... A retrospective analysis of spring barley germplasm development from 'foundation genotypes' to currently successful... more
A total of 12,080 sequences, including 5,851 transcriptome contigs developed at NBRI and 5,002 singlets and 1,227 contigs assembled from 13,201 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) of Jatropha curcas from National Center for Biotechnology... more
The nutritional value and yield potential of US Western Shipping melon (USWS; Cucumis melo L.) could be improved through the introgression of genes for early fruit maturity (FM) and the enhancement of the quantity of β-carotene (QβC) in... more

Background Cultivated cotton is an annual fiber crop derived mainly from two perennial species, Gossypium hirsutum L. or upland cotton, and G. barbadense L., extra long-staple fiber Pima or Egyptian cotton. These two cultivated species... more
