Sex-biased gene expression across tissues reveals unexpected differentiation in the gills of the threespine stickleback by Sylvestre, Florent, Aubin-Horth, Nadia, Bernatchez, Louis

“…Sexual dimorphism can evolve through sex-specific regulation of the same gene set. However, sex chromosomes can also facilitate this by directly linking gene expression to sex. …”

R-loops acted on by RNase H1 influence DNA replication timing and genome stability in Leishmania by Jeziel D. Damasceno, Emma M. Briggs, Marija Krasilnikova, Catarina A. Marques, Craig Lapsley, Richard McCulloch

“…Abstract Genomes in eukaryotes normally undergo DNA replication in a choreographed temporal order, resulting in early and late replicating chromosome compartments. Leishmania, a human protozoan parasite, displays an unconventional DNA replication program in which the timing of DNA replication completion is chromosome size-dependent: larger chromosomes complete replication later then smaller ones. …”

Fodder qualities of heterotic hybrids from intergeneric crosses between maize and eastern gamagrass by P. A. Panikhin, V. A. Sokolov

“…Zootechnical analysis of plant samples showed that the hybrids, in which chromosomes of the lines used in commercial seed production to obtain heterosis in F1 had been added to the 36 chromosomes of eastern gamagrass, exceeded in their biochemical indicators the plants, in which 20 chromosomes from one of the maize lines earlier used in hybridization at our laboratory had been added. …”
