Nutritional Modulation of Gene Expression: Insights from SNPs, CNVs, and Microsatellite Markers in Animal Systems
Abstract: Nutritional modulation of gene expression represents a critical interface between diet and the genome, shaping metabolic efficiency, health, and productivity in animal systems. Genetic variations such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), copy number variants (CNVs), and microsatellite markers contribute to differential gene regulation in response to dietary inputs. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how these molecular markers influence nutrient driven gene expression and phenotypic outcomes in livestock species. SNPs …

Current Perspectives of Prader -Willi Syndrome: A Multisystem Approach
Abstract: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disorder with multisystem involvement, caused by the lack of expression of genes on the paternally inherited chromosome 15q11.2-q13 region from paternal 15q11-q13 deletions (about 60%) or maternal uniparental disomy 15 or both. It is a complex and contiguous gene disorder which affects the multiple systems with many clinical presentations especially hypothalamic insufficiency. The clinical features are characterized by short stature position, developmental delay, cognitive …

Estimation of Genetic Diversity in Some Species of Meliaceae Family through RAPD Technique
Abstract: Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis has proved to be useful in determining genetic relationship and variation in many plant species, result of RAPD analysis can be used to determine genetic distances and relatedness within or among species, which can then be utilized in construction of phytogenetic. RAPD analysis could also provide useful insights into the phylogenetic relationship. RAPD is a polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is based on dominant …
