Publications

GSA connects you to the field through a range of scholarly and community publications: our peer-reviewed journals offer two distinct platforms for communicating high-quality original research; our blog brings perspective to your research and career; and our newsletters keep you up to date with the latest opportunities and news from your community.

Microscope image from a cre-driver mouse strain developed with the MiniPromoter Ple155 (PCP2), which restricts expression to bipolar cells in the retina. This Ple155 (PCP2)-icre/ERT2 male mouse was fed a tamoxifen diet to induce icre expression, which removed a loxP flanked stop cassette, allowing expression of tdTomato (red). Bipolar cells were identified by co-staining with antibody against PCP2 (green), and merge (yellow). This is one of 27 cre-driver strains for the brain and eye that Korecki et al. have produced using knock-ins at the mouse genome docking site 5′ of Hprt and an improved cre tamoxifen inducible-first, constitutive ready allele (icre/f3/ERT2/f3). See Korecki et al., pp 1155–1177.

Journal: GENETICS

Rediscover GENETICS.

GENETICS publishes high-quality genetics and genomics research that expands scientific boundaries—we’ve been building the field since 1916. With its broad readership, rich history, and responsive editors, GENETICS brings the latest in publishing innovations to the communities it serves. We invite you to submit your research and discover the fast turnaround times and helpful review process for yourself.

Journal: G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics

Good data, shared widely.

Get your useful data out into the world by publishing in G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics. G3 publishes high quality foundational research, particularly studies that generate useful genetic information, such as mutant screens, single gene studies, genome maps, genome sequence data, GWAS and QTL studies, software, data resources, and new methods. The Editorial Board of G3 believes that rapid dissemination of such data lays the foundation for many important insights.

Why publish with GSA?

We treat authors as colleagues, not adversaries. Your time is important—and so is your research. Peer editors oversee the review process and give you clear guidance on how to address any reviewer comments; our helpful editorial staff keep the process moving and on time. We make it easy to submit: no formatting requirements on initial submission. Our dedicated editors work hard to keep time to first decision at around a month. And because we’re agile and community-driven, we’ve long been at the forefront of publishing innovations.

Promotional Toolkit for Authors

The GSA Journals are committed to helping authors get their work in front a wide audience. Our Promotional Toolkit for Authors contains pointers to help you promote your GENETICS or G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics paper, including how GSA and Oxford University Press can help.

Five new Caenorhabditis species from Indonesia provide exceptions to Haldane's rule and partial fertility of interspecific hybrids

AbstractGiven the interest in the biogeography and diversity of the Caenorhabditis genus, we established a collection of these nematodes from field surveys on four Indonesian islands. We isolated over 60 Caenorhabditis strains belonging to ten species. Five species were previously known from other locations: C. briggsae, which was predominant, C. tropicalis, C. nigoni, C. brenneri and C. elegans. The five other species are new discoveries for science, and we describe them here as Caenorhabditis indonesiana,...

Combining ability of banana triploid hybrid progenitors and genomic prediction of cross performance for agro-morphological traits

AbstractBreeding disease-resistant cultivars that meet commercial criteria is essential to sustain banana production threatened by major diseases. Edible bananas are seedless triploid hybrids which represent end-breeding products. Hence, the crucial step in banana breeding is to improve and combine the parents. Currently, little information is available on parental combining abilities and on the inheritance of major traits to effectively guide banana breeding strategies. In this study, a breeding population of 2723 triploids individuals resulting from...
