The flexible gene pool of Propionibacterium acnes
Propionibacterium acnes is a Gram-positive bacterium that is intimately associated with humans. The nature and consequences of this symbiosis are poorly understood; it might comprise both mutualistic and parasitic properties. Recent advances in distinguishing phylotypes of P. acnes have revealed that certain type I lineages are predominantly associated with acne vulgaris. Genome analyses reveal...
متن کاملThe gene pool
Any good journalist knows that, if you can’t deliver the facts, at least you can offer up a bit of entertainment. Genome scientists have co-opted that strategy when it comes to the seemingly immortal question of how many human genes there are. Frankly, nobody seems to have a clue. So at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory genome meeting this May, they decided to collect a different form of data —...
متن کاملPropionibacterium acnes.
Propionibacterium acnes, a common skin organism, is most notably recognized for its role in acne vulgaris. It also causes postoperative and device-related infections and has been associated with a number of other conditions such as sarcoidosis and synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis and osteitis (SAPHO), although its precise role as a causative agent remains to be determined. Propionibact...
متن کاملGene Pool Recombination in Genetic Algorithms
A new recombination operator, called Gene Pool Recombination (GPR) is introduced. In GPR, the genes are randomly picked from the gene pool defined by the selected parents. The mathematical analysis of GPR is easier than for two-parent recombination (TPR) normally used in genetic algorithms. There are n difference equations for the marginal gene frequencies that describe the evolution of a popul...
متن کاملScreening Coriander Gene Pool for Special Uses
Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) is an aromatic member of the Apiaceae with a wide diversity of uses (Diederichsen 1996). Its rapid life cycle allows it to fit into different growing seasons, making it possible to grow the crop under a wide range of conditions. Three subspecies and 10 botanical varieties of coriander have been proposed at the infraspecific level (Diederichsen and Hammer 2003) ...
