Plant genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity specifically in plants. [1][2] It is generally considered a field of biology and botany, but intersects frequently with many other life sciences and is strongly linked with the study of information systems.
The genes of most plant and some animal (e.g., insects and fish) species carry transposons, which are short, naturally occurring pieces of DNA with the ability to move from one location to another in the genome.
3 cze 2024 · Here, we present activities to introduce some of the basic concepts of plant DNA and sequencing data to explore the curriculum topics of evolution, inheritance and variation, and bioinformatics. Students extract genetic material and explore the process of assembling genome sequences.
20 lip 2020 · Here we review the growth of pan-genomics in plants, explore the origins of gene presence and absence variation, and show how pan-genomes can support plant breeding and evolution studies.
20 lut 2024 · In this section, we describe three applications of pangenomes in crop plant genetics: mapping or selecting for beneficial alleles, the generation of inventories of resistance genes (also known...
2 lut 2021 · This review discusses the features of cis-regulatory sequences in plants, technologies enabling their identification, characterization, and validation, their organization into functional cis-regulatory modules, their genomic distributions with respect to target genes, and the role of transposable elements in their evolution.
13 mar 2015 · The DNA in plant cells is found in the nucleus, the mitochondria and the chloroplasts. The latter two organelles are descendants of bacteria that were captured by a eukaryotic cell and have become endosymbionts. DNA is a coded set of instructions for making RNA.
