A crossbred lineage was developed through introgressive backcross breeding techniques and combines the high growth performance of the Chitralada (CHIT) lwith attractive reddish color of the Red Stirling (REDS) strains. Since the crossbreed has an unknown genetically improved background, the objective of this work was to characterize expression signatures that portray the advantageous phenotype of the crossbreeds. We characterized the microRNA transcriptome by high throughput sequencing (RNA-seq) and the proteome through mass spectrometry (ESI-Q-TOF-MS) and applied bioinformatics for the comparative analysis of such molecular data on the three strains. Crossbreed expressed a distinct set of miRNAs and proteins compared to the parents. They comprised several microRNAs regulate traits of economic interest. Proteomic profiles revealed differences between parental and crossbreed in expression of proteins associated with glycolisis. Distinctive miRNA and protein signatures contribute to the phenotype of crossbreed.}, language = {en} } @article{HerkenhoffBattistiniPraiaetal.2023, author = {Herkenhoff, Marcos Edgar and Battistini, Carolina and Praia, Ana Beatriz and Rossini, Bruno Cesar and dos Santos, Lucilene Delazari and Br{\"o}del, Oliver and Frohme, Marcus and Saad, Susana Marta Isay}, title = {The combination of omics strategies to evaluate starter and probiotic strains in the Catharina sour Brazilian-style beer}, series = {Food Research International}, volume = {167}, journal = {Food Research International}, publisher = {Elsevier}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:526-opus4-19858}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Catharina sour, the first internationally recognized Brazilian beer, is characterized by fermentation with lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which may have probiotic potential, and the addition of fruit juice. This study aimed to evaluate the use of the starter Streptococcus thermophilus TH-4 (TH-4) and the probiotics Lacticaseibacillus paracasei F19 and 431, associated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae US-05, in the absence (control)/presence of passion fruit or peach juices. Evaluation proceeded during fermentation and storage by enumeration using pour-plate and qPCR; gene expressions of hop resistance; proteome by Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS); and odor, flavor, and metabolome by Headspace Solid-Phase Microextraction (HS-SPME), coupled with the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. We concluded that the strains studied are recommended for applications in sour beers, due to the presence of defense mechanisms like membrane adhesion and H+ pump. Furthermore, HS-SPME/GC-MS indicated that the strains may contribute to the beer flavor and odor.}, language = {en} }
