Article Abstract
Cloned DNA libraries in bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) are the most widely used form of large-insert DNA libraries. BAC libraries are typically represented by ordered clones derived from genomic DNA of a particular organism. In the case of large eukaryotic genomes, whole-genome libraries consist of a hundred thousand to a million clones, which make their handling and screening a daunting task. The labor and cost of working with whole-genome libraries can be greatly reduced by constructing a library derived from a smaller part of the genome. Here we describe construction of BAC libraries from mitotic chromosomes purified by flow cytometric sorting. Chromosome-specific BAC libraries facilitate positional gene cloning, physical mapping, and sequencing in complex plant genomes.

A BAC-guided haplotype assembly pipeline increases the resolution of the virus resistance locus CMD2 in cassava.
Genome Biol

Background: Cassava is an important crop for food security in the tropics where its production is jeopardized by several viral diseases, including the cassava mosaic disease (CMD) which is endemic in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Indian subcontinent. Resistance to CMD is linked to a single dominant locus, namely CMD2. The cassava genome contains highly repetitive regions making the accurate assembly of a reference genome challenging.

ICAR-Indian Institute of Wheat and Barley Research, Karnal 132001, India.
A comparative transcriptomic analysis was conducted for the nitrogen-efficient (BNI-Munal) and derivative parent Munal wheat genotypes to unravel the gene expression patterns across four nitrogen levels (0%, 50%, 75%, and 100%). Analyzing the genes of BNI-enabled wheat helps us understand how they are expressed differently, which heavily influences BNI activity. Grain yield and 1000-grain weight were higher in BNI Munal than in Munal.

EClinicalMedicine
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.
Background: Timely management of sepsis with early targeted antimicrobial therapy improves patient outcomes. Rapid molecular assays (RMAs) have emerged, enabling the detection of bloodstream infection (BSI) with a shorter turnaround time than blood cultures (BCs). The accuracy of several RMAs has not been comprehensively reviewed.
