Project description:Comparative genomics of widespread and narrow-range white-bellied rats in the Niviventer niviventer species complex sheds light on invasive rodent success
Project description:Analysis of gene expression profiles of epididymal fat from DIO rats We applied a comparative functional genomics approach to evaluate diet-induced obese (DIO) rats as an obesity model Keywords: single time point, comparison control animal vs. diet induced obese animal
Project description:White-rot basidiomycete fungi are potent degraders of plant biomass with the ability to mineralize all lignocellulose components. Recent comparative genomics studies showed that these fungi use a wide diversity of enzymes for wood degradation. In order to improve our understanding on the enzymatic mechanisms leading to lignocellulose breakdown, we analysed the early response of the white-rot fungus Pycnoporus coccineus CIRM-BRFM310 to various lignocellulosic substrates at two time points; Day 3 and Day 7.
Project description:An Infinium microarray platform (GPL28271, HorvathMammalMethylChip40) was used to generate DNA methylation data from blood samples from yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris). DNA methylation data from n=159 blood samples. All samples were collected as part of a long-term study of a free-living population of yellow-bellied marmots in the Gunnison National Forest, Colorado (USA), where marmots were captured and blood samples collected biweekly during the their active season (May to August). Genomic DNA was extracted with Qiagen DNeasy blood and tissue kit.
