Project description:Here we describe a genome-wide analysis of copy number variations (CNVs) in Chinese domestic cattle by using array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) and quantitative PCR (qPCR). We conducted array CGH analysis on 30 male cattle individuals, animals from consisting of 12 breeds of Bos taurus/Bos indicus, 1 Bos grunniens and and two ones of Bubalus bubalis breeds for with beef, and/or dairy or dual purpose. We identified over 470 candidate CNV regions (CNVRs) in Bos B. taurus/B. indicus; 118 candidate CNV regions (CNVRs) in B. grunniens, 139 CNVRs in B. bubalis. Furthermore, based on the Y haplotypes of B. taurus/ B. indicus, Wwe also identified 69, 337, and 251 candidate CNV regions (CNVRs) in the sub-groups of Y1, Y2 and Y3 haplotypes.
Project description:Triticum aestivum cultivars Scorpion 25 and Xi 19 were grown under both normal and hot/dry conditions. We compared the effect of these two growth conditions on these two closely related varieties. We sequenced two biological replicates each for both Scorpion 25 and Xi19 grown under normal conditions. One library for hot/dry growth conditions was sequenced for each of these two cultivars.
Project description:The three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) is an important model organism for understanding the genetic basis of adaptation in response to ecological change. We used single nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) to define brain cell type composition and gene expression in adult and juvenile three-spined stickleback. These data will faciliate improved understanding of how the nervous system responds/adapts to environmental factors.
