Dear editor,In the 1960s,the use of semi-dwarf rice and wheat varieties ushered in the‘‘Green Revolution,’’leading to reduced lodging and increased harvest index.In rice,essentially all modern semidwarf varieties ...
Multiple gene knockouts are often employed in studies of microbial physiology and genetics. However, the selective markers that confer antibiotic resistance are generally limited, so it is necessary to remove these re...
Social network structures can crucially impact complex social processes such as collective behaviour or the transmission of information and diseases. However, currently it is poorly understood how social networks chan...

RecA family recombinases play essential roles in maintaining genome integrity. A group of RecA-like proteins named RadC are present in all archaea, but their in vivo functions remain unclear. In this study, we perform...
Gene targeting is the method of precise genome modification that utilizes the innate DNA repair mechanism in cells, known as homologous recombination. At its genesis, gene targeting in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cell...
Chloroplasts and bacterial cells divide by binary fission. The key protein in this constriction division is FtsZ, a self-assembling GTPase similar to eukaryotic tubulin. In prokaryotes, FtsZ is almost always encoded b...
