Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2024 Jul; 357:114597. PMID: 39084320
Neuropeptides are essential neuronal signaling molecules that orchestrate animal behavior and physiology via actions within the nervous system and on peripheral tissues. Due to the small size of biologically active...

Pucker B, Walker-Hale N, Dzurlic J, Yim W, Cushman J, Crum A, et al.
New Phytol . 2023 Oct; 241(1):471-489. PMID: 37897060
In this study, we investigate the genetic mechanisms responsible for the loss of anthocyanins in betalain-pigmented Caryophyllales, considering our hypothesis of multiple transitions to betalain pigmentation. Utilizing transcriptomic and genomic...

Sharma A, Pham M, Reyes J, Chana R, Yim W, Heu C, et al.
iScience . 2022 May; 25(3):103781. PMID: 35535206
Despite their capacity to acquire and pass on an array of debilitating pathogens, research on ticks has lagged behind other arthropod vectors, such as mosquitoes, largely because of challenges in...

Guo Q, Liu L, Yim W, Cushman J, Barkla B
Int J Mol Sci . 2021 Jun; 22(9). PMID: 34065142
The study of subcellular membrane structure and function facilitates investigations into how biological processes are divided within the cell. However, work in this area has been hampered by the limited...

Wahrenburg Z, Benesch E, Lowe C, Jimenez J, Vulavala V, Lu S, et al.
Plant J . 2021 Apr; 107(1):77-99. PMID: 33860574
Wounding during mechanical harvesting and post-harvest handling results in tuber desiccation and provides an entry point for pathogens resulting in substantial post​-harvest crop losses. Poor wound healing is a major...

Morales-Briones D, Kadereit G, Tefarikis D, Moore M, Smith S, Brockington S, et al.
Syst Biol . 2020 Aug; 70(2):219-235. PMID: 32785686
Gene tree discordance in large genomic data sets can be caused by evolutionary processes such as incomplete lineage sorting and hybridization, as well as model violation, and errors in data...

Chen L, VanBuren R, Paris M, Zhou H, Zhang X, Wai C, et al.
Nat Genet . 2019 Oct; 51(10):1549-1558. PMID: 31570895
Domestication of clonally propagated crops such as pineapple from South America was hypothesized to be a 'one-step operation'. We sequenced the genome of Ananas comosus var. bracteatus CB5 and assembled...

Sheehan H, Feng T, Walker-Hale N, Lopez-Nieves S, Pucker B, Guo R, et al.
New Phytol . 2019 Aug; 227(3):914-929. PMID: 31369159
The evolution of l-DOPA 4,5-dioxygenase activity, encoded by the gene DODA, was a key step in the origin of betalain biosynthesis in Caryophyllales. We previously proposed that l-DOPA 4,5-dioxygenase activity...
