Taken together, we demonstrate that the auxin system can be applied to a vertebrate model organism thus is applicable beyond human cell lines.
Future implementation and development of massive sequencing applications and high density microarrays will fill the gap of genomic/transcriptomic information which is actually the major limitation in the use of Mytilus galloprovincialis as a model organism, thus providing more robust assessments into an ecologically relevant species ubiquitously present along the coastal marine environments.
High throughput sequencing is now an efficient approach for detecting the expression of genes in non-model organisms, thus providing valuable information in spite of the lack of the genome sequence.
Most of life sciences outside evolutionary biology, inclusive of phylogenetics and systematics, deal with a narrow selection of model organisms only, thus a paper in these disciplines will not often extend to comparisons between different organisms, one of which the author would be tempted to regard as lower or higher than others.
Unlike the mitoribosomal proteome, however, the mitoribosomal RNA content of model organisms was thus far not systematically analyzed.
N. crassa and S. cerevisiae are probably the most commonly used fungal model organisms and thus it is notable that with regard to genomic ORF redundancy they have the most exceptional genomes within the analysed large fungal genome set.
The difference in temperatures required for maximal thermoluminescence emissions from S2/QA− (Q band, 22°C) and S2,3/QB− (B band, 25°C) charge recombinations is considerably smaller in Microcoleus as compared to "model" photosynthetic organisms, thus indicating a significant alteration of the S2/QA− redox potential.
Our study using the model organism Drosophila thus starts to reveal a comprehensive sketch of dietary zinc absorption and its regulatory control, a process that is still incompletely understood in mammalian organisms.
Despite recent reports of TALEN- or CRISPR/Cas9- mediated HDR in culture cells (Bassett et al., 2014; Yang, H. et al., 2013), application in model organisms has been, thus far, poorly explored.
