    Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that post-transcriptionally repress gene expression by binding generally to the 3'-untranslated regions of their target mRNAs. miRNAs regulate a large fraction of the genome, playing a key role in most physiological and pathological processes. The thyroid hormones (T4 and T3) are major regulators of development, metabolism and cell growth. The thyroid hormones (THs) are synthetized in the thyroid gland and enter the cells through transporter proteins. In the cells, T4 and T3 are metabolized by deiodinase enzymes and bind to nuclear receptors (TRs), which have a higher affinity by T3. TRs act as hormone dependent transcription factors by binding to thyroid hormone response elements (TREs) in the target genes and recruiting transcriptional coregulators. There is increasing evidence that a variety of miRNAs target deiodinases and the receptor, thus regulating TH signaling is different tissues. In turn, the THs have been shown to modulate the expression of specific miRNAs and their mRNA targets in different cell types and organs. In many cases, the existence of TREs in the regulatory regions of these miRNAs has been identified, and the hormone bound receptors transcriptionally regulate expression of these molecules. Changes in the levels of miRNAs have been demonstrated to mediate some of the important actions of the THs in processes such as muscle and heart function, lipid liver metabolism or skin physiology. In addition, miRNA regulation is involved in the effects of TRs on cell proliferation and cancer.

    Abstract In this chapter, we describe a computational pipeline for the in silico detection of plant viruses by high-throughput sequencing (HTS) from total RNA samples. The pipeline is designed for the analysis of short reads generated using an Illumina platform and free-available software tools. First, we provide advice for high-quality total RNA purification, library preparation, and sequencing. The bioinformatics pipeline begins with the raw reads obtained from the sequencing machine and performs some curation steps to obtain long contigs. Contigs are blasted against a local database of reference nucleotide viral sequences to identify the viruses in the samples. Then, the search is refined by applying specific filters. We also provide the code to re-map the short reads against the viruses found to get information on sequencing depth and read coverage for each virus. No previous bioinformatics background is required, but basic knowledge of the Unix command line and R language is recommended.

    Abstract Mixed infections of pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) isolates from the EU and CH2 strains are frequent in tomato crops. An asymmetric antagonistic relationship has been described between these strains, making their in planta interaction worthy of study. The aim of this work was to verify if PepMV isolates labelled with fluorescent proteins recapitulate the interactions described for wild type isolates and, if so, to determine the proportion of cells infected with each isolate in single and mixed infected plants. Infectious clones were prepared for PepMV-CH2-GFP and -EU-TagRFP, and also for their reciprocal combination, PepMV-CH2-TagRFP and -EU-GFP, and used to inoculate Nicotiana benthamiana plants. The accumulation of viral RNA followed trends that differed from wild type viruses, with the PepMV-EU-GFP and -CH2-TagRFP pair reproducing more closely the wild type interaction. Protoplasts were isolated from leaves that were systemically infected with PepMV-EU-GFP, -CH2-TagRFP, or both, and flow cytometry was used to determine the proportion of cells infected with each tagged isolate. A significant proportion (16.6%) of cells were found to be infected with both, without strong evidence of virus exclusion in coinfections, as could have been expected for related viruses; in fact, cellular structures reminiscent of viral replication complexes were found to be labelled with both fluorescent reporters.

    Abstract Crops have resource-acquisitive leaf traits, which are usually attributed to the process of domestication. However, early choices of wild plants amenable for domestication may also have played a key role in the evolution of crops' physiological traits. Here we compiled data on 1,034 annual herbs to place the ecophysiological traits of 69 crops' wild progenitors in the context of global botanical variation, and we conducted a common-garden experiment to measure the effects of domestication on crop ecophysiology. Our study found that crops' wild progenitors already had high leaf nitrogen, photosynthesis, conductance and transpiration and soft leaves. After domestication, ecophysiological traits varied little and in idiosyncratic ways. Crops did not surpass the trait boundaries of wild species. Overall, the resource-acquisitive strategy of crops is largely due to the inheritance from their wild progenitors rather than to further breeding improvements. Our study concurs with recent literature highlighting constraints of crop breeding for faster ecophysiological traits.

    Abstract Objectives: Caregivers play a key role in supporting older Mexican Americans, who are less likely to enter nursing facilities than other racial/ethnic groups in the US. However, there is little research on how Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) affect relationship quality between caregivers and care recipients.
    Method: Using data from the 2015 wave of the Hispanic Established Populations for Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly (H-EPESE) (
    Results: Hyperactivity symptoms were associated with appreciation, arguing, and nerves. Psychosis symptoms were associated with arguing and nerves. Spousal caregivers were more likely to report arguing and nerves and less likely to report feeling appreciated. Enjoyment assessments were not associated with NPS.
    Conclusion: Relationship quality is related to behavioral changes in late life. Mexican American caregivers negatively evaluate their relationships, not in response to care tasks per se, but when the older person exhibits behavioral problems. The relationship between NPS and negative relationship assessments may be due to unanticipated behavior changes in late life and stigma around psychiatric symptomatology.
