Structural variants (SVs) are a major source of genetic and phenotypic variation, but remain
challenging to accurately type and are hence poorly characterized in most species. We …

Background Whole genome duplication (WGD) events have played a major role in eukaryotic
genome evolution, but the consequence of these extreme events in adaptive genome …

Chitin is one of the most abundant polysaccharides in nature, forming important structures
in insects, crustaceans, and fungal cell walls. Vertebrates on the other hand are generally …

Microorganisms use a host of enzymes, including processive glycoside hydrolases, to
deconstruct recalcitrant polysaccharides to sugars. Processive glycoside hydrolases closely …

Background Chitin is a common component in the natural diet of many fish, and a range of
chitinases with the potential to down chitin have been identified. Yet whether chitin is …

The enzymatic degradation of recalcitrant polysaccharides is accomplished by synergistic
enzyme cocktails of glycoside hydrolases (GHs) and accessory enzymes. Many GHs are …

Whole genome duplication (WGD) events have played a major role in eukaryotic genome
evolution, but the consequence of these extreme events in adaptive genome evolution is still …

Chitin is an insoluble polysaccharide and important component in the extracellular matrix of
invertebrates such as arthropods, algae, and fungi. In vertebrates, the role and significance …

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) possesses a genome containing 10 genes encoding chitinases,
yet their functional roles remain poorly understood. In other fish species, chitinases have …

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of trace mineral nutrition on sow
performance, mineral content, and intestinal gene expression of neonate piglets when inorganic …
