DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7374
Abstract: Abstract The European swallowtail butterfly (Papilio machaon) is so named, because of the long and narrow prominences extending from the trailing edge of their hindwings and, although not a true tail, they are referred to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0022149x22000426
Abstract: Abstract Steinernema populi n. sp. was recovered by baiting from beneath poplar trees in China. Morphological and molecular features provided evidence for placing the new species into the Kushidai clade. The new species is characterized… read more here.

PolyAtailor: measuring poly(A) tail length from short-read and long-read sequencing data
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Briefings in bioinformatics"
DOI: 10.1093/bib/bbac271
Abstract: The poly(A) tail is a dynamic addition to the eukaryotic mRNA and the change in its length plays an essential role in regulating gene expression through affecting nuclear export, mRNA stability and translation. Only recently… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skad161
Abstract: Abstract Physical traits that improve welfare and disease outcomes for sheep are becoming increasingly important due to both increased climate challenges and societal expectations. Such traits include tail length, the amount of skin (vs. wool)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2024.07.20.604409
Abstract: In mammals, tail length is controlled by several genetic determinants, amongst which Hox13 genes located at the posterior extremities of Hox clusters, whose main function are to terminate the extension of the body axis. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1261/rna.079050.121
Abstract: Poly(A) tail length is regulated in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. One factor that controls polyadenylation in the cytoplasm is CPEB1, an RNA binding protein that associates with specific mRNA 3'UTR sequences to tether enzymes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1261/rna.080333.124
Abstract: Virtually all mRNAs acquire a poly(A) tail cotranscriptionally, but its length is dynamically regulated in the cytoplasm in a transcript-specific manner. The length of the poly(A) tail plays a crucial role in determining mRNA translation,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.01255
Abstract: Poly(A) tail length (PAL) has been implicated in the regulation of mRNA translation activities. However, the extent of such regulation at the transcriptome level is less understood in plants. Herein, we report the development and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/vetsci12030198
Abstract: Simple Summary Tail docking is a symptomatic yet effective and widely used, but animal unfriendly, method of reducing the prevalence of tail biting. This led to the idea of genetically shortening tail length through selection.… read more here.
