High-quality genomes are rapidly increasing across seagrasses. However, it remains limited for tropical seagrasses of the Hydrocharticae family, with most research focused on temperate seagrasses such as Posidonia spp. and Zostera spp. We present the complete genome sequences of two species of tropical Caribbean seagrasses, Syringrodium filiforme and Halophila stipulacea. Illumina sequencing was performed on genetic material from wild-collected specimens. The reads were assembled using a de novo...

Gene Duplication in a Patient With Usher Syndrome Type 2C: A Case Report

Sebastián J Ruiz Matos
Variants of the ADGRV1 gene cause Usher syndrome type 2C (USH2C). There are three types of Usher syndrome, all inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. USH2C classically causes sensorineural hearing loss and progressive retinitis pigmentosa (RP) occurring in adolescence or adulthood. In this study, we report the case of a 34-year-old male with congenital sensorineural and progressive hearing loss and peripheral vision loss with a fundus examination of pale optic nerve with a cup-to-disk...

Collaborative research efforts benefit both Primarily Undergraduate Institution faculty and students and a biotechnology company in reproducibility project

2 weeks 6 days ago
Kristen C Johnson
Undergraduate students often have limited access to industry-focused research opportunities. To address this, faculty and students from 10 primarily undergraduate institutions collaborated with Sampling Human, a biotechnology company, to test a biocytometry workflow for single-cell analysis. The project engaged 15 students with varying levels of research experience and demonstrated that prior research expertise was not essential for successfully using the workflow. Participants followed...
