From Arabidopsis to Zea mays, there’s a knowledgebase for that
In 2022, GENETICS debuted its first annual overview of selected knowledgebases. In continuance of that tradition, this year’s piece will discuss 12 knowledgebase updates with an emphasis on economically important plant Model Organism Databases (MODs). MODs, which first appeared in the 1990s, are sophisticated knowledgebases that aim to organize and integrate heterogeneous published knowledge for…

A new bioinformatic GWAS pipeline enables automated, multi-faceted analysis of the
combinatorial effect of multiple variants on a genetic trait. -
Science & PublishingNew study suggests Elg1-RLC strays from the beaten path to safeguard replication stress
A new study in GENETICS reveals how the PCNA unloader Elg1-RLC protects replication forks during DNA damage, operating in a noncanonical pathway that safeguards genome stability when checkpoint signaling is compromised.

Science & PublishingThe great genetic swap: Rethinking essentiality in fruit fly reproduction
The word “essential” carries weight in genetics: lose the gene, lose the function. Luke Arnce, Jaclyn Bubnell, and Charles Aquadro challenge this intuition in a recent focused comparative study of germline stem-cell (GSC) biology across Drosophila species in G3:Genes|Genomes|Genetics. They tested the famed bag-of-marbles (bam) gene for its conserved function as a switch for daughter…

Science & PublishingA new study highlights the need for considering spatial structure in detecting positive selection
Identifying the signatures of natural selection in a population is tricky. A new simulation-based model investigates how population structure affects our ability to accurately predict signatures of selective sweeps.
