Introgressions lead to reference bias in wheat RNA-seq analysis
RNA-seq is a fundamental technique in genomics, yet reference bias, where transcripts derived from non-reference alleles are quantified less accurately, can undermine the accuracy of RNA-seq quantification and... (Source: BMC Biology)

A CTL − Lys immune function maintains insect metamorphosis by preventing gut bacterial dysbiosis and limiting opportunistic infections
Gut bacteria are beneficial to the host, many of which must be passed on to host offspring. During metamorphosis, the midgut of holometabolous insects undergoes histolysis and remodeling, and thus risks losing... (Source: BMC Biology)

Integrative systems biology of wheat susceptibility to Fusarium graminearum uncovers a conserved gene regulatory network and identifies master regulators targeted by fungal core effectors
Plant diseases are driven by an intricate set of defense mechanisms counterbalanced by the expression of host susceptibility factors promoted through the action of pathogen effectors. In spite of their central... (Source: BMC Biology)
