Abstract Background Proteolytic Clostridium botulinum is the causative agent of botulism, a severe neuroparalytic illness.Given the severity of botulism, surprisingly little Dispense Parts is known of the population structure, biology, phylogeny or evolution of C.botulinum.The recent determination of the genome sequence of C.botulinum has allowed c
Summary: Eye color is highly variable in populations with European ancestry, ranging from low to high quantities of melanin in the iris.Polymorphisms in the Mugs HERC2/OCA2 locus have the largest effect on eye color in these populations, although other genomic regions also influence eye color.We performed genome-wide association studies of eye colo
Fusarium wilt (FW) disease is the key constraint to grain legume production worldwide.The projected climate change is likely to exacerbate the current scenario.Of the various plant protection measures, genetic improvement of the disease resistance of crop cultivars remains the most economic, straightforward and environmental-friendly option to miti
