Abstract: ETCHbox genes are fast-evolving homeobox genes present only in eutherian (placental) mammals which originated by duplication and divergence from a conserved homeobox gene, Cone-rod homeobox (CRX). While expression and function of CRX are restricted to… read more here.

Abstract: Flowering is a vulnerable, but crucial phase in building crop yield. Proper timing of this period is therefore decisive in obtaining optimal yields. However, genetic regulation of flowering integrates many different environmental signals and is… read more here.

Abstract: Gene duplication leads to subfunctionalization of paralogs. In mammals, IFN-γ is the sole member of the type II IFN family and binds to a receptor complex consisting of IFN-γR1 and IFN-γR2. In teleost fish, IFN-γ… read more here.
