Gene expression analysis at the onset of sex differentiation in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus)
(BioMed Central, 2015)Background Controlling sex ratios is essential for the aquaculture industry, especially in those species with sex dimorphism for relevant productive traits, hence the importance of knowing how the sexual phenotype is ... -
Gene expression comparison of resistant and susceptible Atlantic salmon fry challenged with Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis virus reveals a marked contrast in immune response
(BMC, 2016)Background Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis (IPN) is a highly contagious birnavirus disease of farmed salmonid fish, which often causes high levels of morbidity and mortality. A large host genetic component to resistance ... -
Gene flow and genetic structure in the Galician population (NW Spain) according to Alu insertions
(BMC, 2008)Background: The most recent Alu insertions reveal different degrees of polymorphism in human populations, and a series of characteristics that make them particularly suitable genetic markers for Human Biology studies. ... -
Genetic architecture of sex determination in fish: applications to sex ratio control in aquaculture
(Frontiers, 2014)Controlling the sex ratio is essential in finfish farming. A balanced sex ratio is usually good for broodstock management, since it enables to develop appropriate breeding schemes. However, in some species the production ... -
Genetic Characterization of the Fish Piaractus brachypomus by Microsatellites Derived from Transcriptome Sequencing
(Frontiers Media, 2018)The pirapitinga, Piaractus brachypomus (Characiformes, Serrasalmidae), is a fish from the Amazon basin and is considered to be one of the main native species used in aquaculture production in South America. The objectives ... -
Genetic characterization, based on microsatellite loci, of Solea senegalensis (Soleidae, Pleuronectiformes) in Atlantic coast populations of the SW Iberian Peninsula
(Universidad Autónoma de Baja California, 2012)The Senegalese sole, Solea senegalensis, is an important commercial flatfish species with major fisheries located off the Atlantic coast of the SW Iberian Peninsula. Past information about the genetic structure and ... -
Genetic identification of F1 and post-F1 Serrasalmid juvenile hybrids in brazilian aquaculture
(PLOS, 2014)Juvenile fish trade monitoring is an important task on Brazilian fish farms. However, the identification of juvenile fish through morphological analysis is not feasible, particularly between interspecific hybrids and pure ... -
Genetic structure and population connectivity of the blue and red shrimp Aristeus antennatus
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)The blue and red shrimp Aristeus antennatus is a demersal marine species harvested by bottom trawling in the Mediterranean Sea, the adjacent Atlantic Ocean (AO) waters, and the Mozambique Channel in the Indian Ocean (IO). ... -
A genome-wide association study, supported by a new chromosome-level genome assembly, suggests sox2 as a main driver of the undifferentiatiated ZZ/ZW sex determination of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus)
(Elsevier, 2021)Background: Understanding sex determination (SD) across taxa is a major challenge for evolutionary biology. The new genomic tools are paving the way to identify genomic features underlying SD in fish, a group frequently ... -
Genomic landscape and chronological reconstruction of driver events in multiple myeloma
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)The multiple myeloma (MM) genome is heterogeneous and evolves through preclinical and post-diagnosis phases. Here we report a catalog and hierarchy of driver lesions using sequences from 67 MM genomes serially collected ... -
Genomic organization, molecular diversification, and evolution of antimicrobial peptide myticin-C genes in the mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis)
(PLOS, 2011)Myticin-C is a highly variable antimicrobial peptide associated to immune response in Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis). In this study, we tried to ascertain the genetic organization and the mechanisms ... -
Genomic Signatures After Five Generations of Intensive Selective Breeding: Runs of Homozygosity and Genetic Diversity in Representative Domestic and Wild Populations of Turbot (Scophthalmus maximus)
(Frontiers, 2020)Massive genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) has opened opportunities for analyzing the way in which selection shapes genomes. Artificial or natural selection usually leaves genomic signatures associated ... -
Genomics advances for boosting aquaculture breeding programs in Spain
(Elsevier, 2017)Spain is among the main seafood consumer countries in the world and an important aquaculture industry has been developed to satisfy its demands. Rearing facilities of aquatic species exist in Spain since Roman times, and ... -
Glycosylated Cell Penetrating Peptides, GCPPs
(Wiley, 2019-01-23)The cell membrane regulates the exchange of molecules and information with the external environment. However, this control barrier hinders the delivery of exogenous bioactive molecules that can be applied to correct cellular ... -
GM and KM immunoglobulin allotypes in the Galician population: new insights into the peopling of the Iberian Peninsula
(BMC, 2007)Background: The current genetic structure of Iberian populations has presumably been affected by the complex orography of its territory, the different people and civilizations that settled there, its ancient and complex ... -
Gomesin inhibits melanoma growth by manipulating key signaling cascades that control cell death and proliferation
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018)Consistent with their diverse pharmacology, peptides derived from venomous animals have been developed as drugs to treat disorders as diverse as hypertension, diabetes and chronic pain. Melanoma has a poor prognosis due ... -
Highly dense linkage maps from 31 full-sibling families of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) provide insights into recombination patterns and chromosome rearrangements throughout a newly refined genome assembly
(Oxford University Press, 2018)Highly dense linkage maps enable positioning thousands of landmarks useful for anchoring the whole genome and for analysing genome properties. Turbot is the most important cultured flatfish worldwide and breeding programs ... -
