Experimental Introgression from Nicotiana Species to Cultivated Tobacco
A number of breeding goals and strategies involving the use of different Nicotiana species can be envisaged. Yet it is only breeding for resistance...

Population genetics reveals new introgression in the nucleus herd of min pigs
ObjectiveMin pigs are a unique genetic resource among local pig breeds in China. They have more excellent characteristics in cold and stress...

Introgression Breeding in Brassica juncea
Introgression breeding refers to the transfer of one or more genomic segments from one genome to another, usually between species, for crop...

Neanderthal introgression in SCN9A impacts mechanical pain sensitivity
The Nav1.7 voltage-gated sodium channel plays a key role in nociception. Three functional variants in the SCN9A gene (encoding M932L, V991L, and...

Genetic introgression from commercial European pigs to the indigenous Chinese Lijiang breed and associated changes in phenotypes
BackgroundGene flow is crucial for enhancing economic traits of livestock. In China, breeders have used hybridization strategies for decades to...
-
Non-ultrametric phylogenetic trees shed new light on Neanderthal introgression
Ultrametric spaces are widely used to depict evolutionary times in phylogenetic trees since they assume that every population/species is located at...

Significant genomic introgression from grey junglefowl (Gallus sonneratii) to domestic chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus)
BackgroundChicken is one of the most numerous and widely distributed species around the world, and many studies support the multiple ancestral...

Hybridization and introgression of two sympatric Lycium species revealed by simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers
Hybridization and introgression are important ways to promote genetic variation and play important roles in the evolution of species. Two sympatric Lycium...

Antibiosis mechanism and bases of resistance to the whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) in upland cotton introgression lines
Screen house leaf cage experiments were conducted under no-choice conditions to ascertain the antibiosis mechanism operating in introgression cotton...

Map** restricted introgression across the genomes of admixed indigenous African cattle breeds
BackgroundThe genomes of indigenous African cattle are composed of components with Middle Eastern (taurine) and South Asian (indicine) origins,...

Harnessing potential grain traits from pre-breeding backcross introgression lines of wild emmer wheat
Grain size and grain weight are key productivity traits in wheat. The evolutionary lineage of cultivated wheat harbours haplotypes with fixed allele...

Ongoing Bidirectional Introgression and the Maintenance of Species Boundaries in Hemiculter Hybrid Zone
The proper delimitation of species plays an important role in taxonomy as well as in studies related to speciation. However, introgressive...

Genome-wide analyses of introgression between two sympatric Asian oak species
Introgression can be an important source of new alleles for adaption under rapidly changing environments, perhaps even more important than standing...

Recent increase in species-wide diversity after interspecies introgression in the highly endangered Iberian lynx
Genetic diversity is lost in small and isolated populations, affecting many globally declining species. Interspecific admixture events can increase...
-
Denisovan and Neanderthal archaic introgression differentially impacted the genetics of complex traits in modern populations
BackgroundIntrogression from extinct Neanderthal and Denisovan human species has been shown to contribute to the genetic pool of modern human...

Stability analysis and genetic map** for yield traits of rice wild introgression lines
The introgression lines (ILs) derived from interspecific crosses with wild accessions were subjected to stability analysis and QTL map** for yield...

Approaches to the Detection of Hybridization Events and Genetic Introgression upon Phylogenetic Incongruence
AbstractIntrogressive hybridization is a widespread phenomenon in the evolution of plants and animals. The conclusion of interspecific gene flow is...
