Genome-wide selection signal analysis reveals the adaptability of Tibetan sheep to high altitudes.

Altitude adaptation is a complex process involving multiple physiological and biochemical responses to hypoxia and other environmental stresses. In-depth genetic analysis of Tibetan sheep, which exhibit significant adaptations to high-altitude hypoxia, promises to elucidate hypoxia-tolerance mechanisms in plateau animals. Here, we conducted a genome-wide selection scan on three Tibetan sheep populations: low-altitude Tao (TS; 2887 m), medium-altitude Tianjun white (WT; 3331 m), and high-altitude Huoerba (HB; 4614 m).

Background: Because breast cancer (BC) is molecularly heterogeneous, diagnosis and treatment will likely benefit from comprehensive genetic profiling. However, routine, high-resolution sequencing is not feasible yet, due to implementation challenges associated with whole-genome sequencing of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) BC samples. Therefore, we explored the potential of an alternative low-resolution, genome-wide testing approach that is able to capture the copy number (CN) landscape, including actionable alterations, in FFPE derived DNA.

Identifying molecular drivers in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is crucial. While HER2-low expression predicts response to novel antibody-drug conjugates, its biological influence on TNBC biology is unknown. We performed a comprehensive multi-omics analysis, integrating genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic profiling to characterize HER2-low TNBC.

Seed traits underlying germination, by determining the environment experienced by plants throughout their lifetime, can play a key role in shaping plants' adaptive strategies. However, the genomic bases of adaptation in seed traits and its link with local biotic and abiotic environments remain largely unexplored. Here, we used a pool-sequencing approach combining genome-wide association (GWA), genome-environment association (GEA) and a genome wide scan of a spatial genomic differentiation index (XX) to identify putative signatures of adaptation in seed traits and to climate and pollinator community across 14 populations of the wild plant species Brassica incana.

Thunb. is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb whose floral buds are the primary source of pharmacological compounds that require manual harvesting. As a result, its floral bud duration, determined by the opening time, is a key determinant of both quality and economic value.
