GENOME ASSEMBLY AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A COMPLEX ZFBED-NLR GENE-CONTAINING DISEASE RESISTANCE LOCUS IN CAROLINA GOLD SELECT RICE WITH NANOPORE SEQUENCING.

Genome assembly and characterization of a complex zfBED-NLR gene-containing disease resistance locus in Carolina Gold Select rice with Nanopore sequencing.

Long-read sequencing facilitates assembly of complex genomic regions.In plants, loci containing nucleotide-binding, leucine-rich repeat TV Stand (NLR) disease resistance genes are an important example of such regions.NLR genes constitute one of the largest gene families in plants and are often clustered, evolving via duplication, contraction, and t

Eliminating gender bias in biomedical research requires fair inclusion of pregnant women and gender diverse people

Abstract Systematic under-representation of pregnant women and gender diverse pregnant people in Ash Catchers clinical research has prevented them from benefitting fairly from biomedical advances.The resulting lack of pharmacological safety and efficacy data leads to medicine discontinuation, sub-optimal dosing, and reliance on repurposed therapies
