Studies of exon scrambling and mutually exclusive alternative splicing
… different from that predicated by the genomic sequence. The public expressed sequence tag (EST) database was searched for transcripts containing scrambled exons. Stringent criteria were used to exclude genome annotation or assembly artifacts. This search identified 172 human ESTs representing …

Functional genomics of a non-toxic Alexandrium lusitanicum culture
… (DIGE) identified proteins differentially expressed between the two subcultures. Identification of some of these proteins was possible by searching the expressed sequence tag (EST) database for dinoflagellates. Proteins shown to be down-regulated in the non-toxic, slower growing subculture …

Phylogenomic supertrees: integration of maximal data and assessment of input tree shape.
… three distinct studies were carried out to investigate various aspects pertaining to the properties and applicability of phylogenomic data used in a supertree context. While the availability of genomic scale data is rapidly diminishing as a problem in the field of phylogenomics, there is now a …

Coregulation of a Neighboring EST with RHOGAP
… in genetic map position, complementation tests, and similarity of phenotype between RhoGAP88C RNAi constructs and the phenotype of hypomorphic cv-c' mutant homozygotes, both of which eliminate posterior crossveins (Denholm et al. 2005). There are several genes that map to this region of …

Genomic Organization of Fatty Acid Desaturase-2 (Fad2 ) and Fatty Acid Desaturase-6 (Fad6) ESTs in Maize
… to linoleic acids in the plastids in plants. Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) clones from putative maize homologs for fad2 and fad6 have been identified. The maize fad2 ESTs showed an amino acid homology of 67--77% to fad2 of Soybean, Arabidopsis and Brassica species. The maize fad6 ESTs share 81% …

Characterization of malus germplasm and QTL mapping of fruit quality traits
… collection was genotyped using 17 robust simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers spanning all linkage groups. SSRs are particularly useful markers as they are co-dominant, highly variable, highly reproducible, and require a very small amount of DNA. Multiple alleles were amplified for all SSRs. …

Improving the Performance and Precision of Bioinformatics Algorithms
… in both the speed and cost of automated DNA sequencers have allowed scientists to sequence the DNA of an increasing number of organisms. One way biologists can take advantage of this genomic DNA data is to use it in conjunction with expressed sequence tag (EST) and cDNA sequences to find …

Gene discovery: Polymorphism association with obsessive-compulsive disorder and proteome analysis of Artemisia annua.
… (cDNA AFLP) and the construction of full length Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) cDNA libraries. We identified proteins that were differentially expressed between trichomes and whole leaf tissue. Proteins that are upregulated in the trichomes might be involved in artemisinin production. To narrow …

Towards Cloning the Leaf Rust Resistance Gene Rph5
… the molecular mapping of Rph5 is of great interest. Genetic studies were performed by analysis of 93 and 91 F2 plants derived from the crosses 'Bowman' (rph5) x 'Magnif 102' (Rph5) and 'Moore' (rph5) x Virginia 92-42-46 (Rph5), respectively. Linkage analysis positioned the Rph5 locus to the …

Comparative and Functional Analysis of Gene Expression in Ophiostoma Species
… cause discoloration of wood thus reducing its aesthetic value and subsequently price. Albino variants of the two species, in particular O. piliferum, are used as biological control agents to prevent sapstaining and have been used commercially for the past 15 years to reduce pitch/wood …
