Complete Genome Sequencing of Polar Arthrobacter sp. PAMC25284, Copper Tolerance Potential Unraveled with Genomic Analysis by Jayram Karmacharya, Prasansah Shrestha, So-Ra Han, Hyun Park, Tae-Jin Oh

“…In addition, our strain PAMC25284 has the same MmcO gene as M. tuberculosis, with a locus tag KY499_RS04055 similarity of 40.61%, which is the highest among the Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria studied for this gene. Our cold-adapted Arthrobacter sp. strain PAMC25564 was published previously but did not contain a multi-copper oxidase domain-containing gene, but strain PAMC25284 was studied in this study.…”

Floristic status of the Himalayan foothills in Haryana – vegetation composition, diversity and population structure by Dhiman Himanshi, Saharan Harikesh, Punia Harish, Jakhar Somveer

“…Floristic assessment is critical for a plant community, reflecting both the gene pool and adaptability of the community. For this, different parameters like density, frequency, basal area, IVI, and various diversity indices were calculated by dividing the area into two altitudinal ranges, i.e. 400–600 m AMSL (AR_1) and 600–800 m AMSL (AR_2). …”

Microevolutionary differentiation of cereal tetraploid species by formation of recombinant genomes by N. I. Dubovets, Ye. A. Sycheva

“…Experimen tal data suggest that newly developed tetraploid forms interbreed easily forming a single hybrid zone, where permanent redistribution of genetic material of differential genomes and further range expansion of genotypic variability available to selection take place during alternation of generations whereby such a zone becomes a poten tial centre of speciation. Subsequent adaptive radiation of hybrid material in an ecologically separated environment occurs by selection of forms with different variants of the recombinant genome in various ecological niches.…”
