Poaceae (the grasses) includes rice, maize, wheat, and other crops, is the most economically important angiosperm family. also one of largest plant families, consisting over 11 000 species with a global distribution that contributes to diverse ecosystems. are classified into 12 subfamilies, generally strong phylogenetic support for their monophyly. However, many relationships within among tribes and/or subtribes, remain uncertain. To better resolve phylogeny, we generated 342 transcriptomic...
Abstract Poaceae members shared a whole-genome duplication called rho. However, little is known about the evolutionary pattern of rho-derived duplicates among lineages and implications in adaptive evolution. Here we present phylogenomic/phylotranscriptomic analyses 363 grasses covering all 12 subfamilies report nine previously unknown duplications. Furthermore, duplications from single were mapped to multiple nodes on species phylogeny; was likely by woody bamboos with possible gene flow...
Abstract The Himalaya–Hengduan Mountains encompass two global biodiversity hotspots with high levels of and endemism. This area is one the diversification centres genus Rhododendron , which recognized as most taxonomically challenging plant taxa due to recent adaptive radiations rampant hybridization. In this study, four DNA barcodes were evaluated on 531 samples representing 173 species seven sections subgenera in a sampling density from employing three analytical methods. varied approaches...
Adaptation to cool climates has occurred several times in different angiosperm groups. Among them, Pooideae, the largest grass subfamily with ∼3,900 species including wheat and barley, have successfully occupied many temperate regions play a prominent role ecosystems. To investigate possible factors contributing Pooideae adaptive evolution cooling climates, we performed phylogenetic reconstruction using five gene sets (with 1,234 nuclear genes their subsets) from 157 transcriptomes/genomes...
Solanaceae, the nightshade family, have ∼2700 species, including important crops potato and tomato, ornamentals, medicinal plants. Several sequenced Solanaceae genomes show evidence for whole-genome duplication (WGD), providing an excellent opportunity to investigate WGD its impacts. Here, we generated 93 transcriptomes/genomes combined them with 87 public datasets, a total of 180 species representing all four subfamilies 14 15 tribes. Nearly 1700 nuclear genes from these...
Abstract Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a crucial role in promoting plant stress resistance and seed dormancy. However, how ABA regulates rice quality remains unclear. This study identifies key transcription factor SLR1-like2 (SLRL2), which mediates the ABA-regulated amylose content (AC) of rice. Mechanistically, SLRL2 interacts with NF-YB1 to co-regulate Wx , determinant AC quality. In contrast SLR1, is inducible but insensitive GA. addition, exhibits DNA-binding activity directly expression...
α-Synuclein (α-syn), a presynaptic protein believed to play an important role in neuropathology Parkinson's disease (PD), is known bind Cu(2+). Cu(2+) has been shown accelerate the aggregation of α-syn form various toxic aggregates vitro. Copper also redox-active metal whose complexes with amyloidogenic proteins/peptides have linked oxidative stress major neurodegenerative diseases. In this work, formation complex or N-terminal peptide, α-syn(1-19), was confirmed electrospray-mass...
Abstract Many species depend on multiple habitats at different points in space and time. Their effective conservation requires an understanding of how when each habitat is used, coupled with adequate protection. Migratory shorebirds use intertidal supratidal wetlands, both which are affected by coastal landscape change. Yet the extent to artificial habitats, particularly highly developed stopover sites, remains poorly understood leading potential deficiencies management. We surveyed their...
Background Salt stress interferes with plant growth and production. Plants have evolved a series of molecular morphological adaptations to cope this abiotic stress, overexpression salt response genes reportedly enhances the productivity various crops. However, little is known about responsive in energy physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.). Thus, excavate are informative uncovering mechanisms for nut. Methodology/Principal Findings We applied next-generation Illumina sequencing technology analyze...
Abstract Lettuce downy mildew caused by Bremia lactucae is the most important disease of lettuce globally. This oomycete highly variable and rapidly overcomes resistance genes fungicides. The use multiple read types results in a high-quality, near-chromosome-scale, consensus assembly. Flow cytometry plus resequencing 30 field isolates, 37 sexual offspring, 19 asexual derivatives from single multinucleate sporangia demonstrates high incidence heterokaryosis B . Heterokaryosis has phenotypic...
Abstract Aim As a prominent geographical distribution centre for the dark coniferous forests, mountains of Southwest China (MSWC) is experiencing an unprecedented warming trend, posing severe challenges to survival dominant fir ( Abies ) species. Although plant's migration ability prerequisite its in changing environments, it has often been ignored species models (SDMs). This study aimed quantify magnitude and direction range changes by year 2080 six species, that recurvata , faxoniana...
Abstract Although the camera-type eyes of cephalopods and vertebrates are a canonical example convergent morphological evolution, cellular molecular mechanisms underlying this convergence remain obscure. We used genomics single cell transcriptomics to study these in visual system bobtail squid Euprymna berryi , an emerging cephalopod model. Analysis 98,537 transcriptomes from nervous identified dozens types that cannot be placed simple correspondence with those vertebrate or fly systems, as...
Importance Sleep disorders and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) commonly coexist in older adults, increasing their risk of developing dementia. Long-term tai chi chuan has been proven to improve sleep quality adults. However, adherence extended training regimens can be challenging. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a neuromodulation technique that may enhance the benefits exercise. Objective To investigate whether 1-Hz rTMS right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex could...
Angiosperms are the largest group of land plants with ~375,000 species, which classified into ~416 families and ~13,000 genera; they exhibit tremendous morphological physiological diversities important members diverse terrestrial aquatic ecosystems. have attracted continuous efforts to describe understand these in a framework interrelationships—the phylogeny, provides strong support for angiosperm classifications relies on morphological, anatomical, increasing molecular markers. Today, great...
The vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for binary systems of acetone + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolebromine ([EMIM][Br]), methanol 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolebromine ([BMIM][Br]), and ternary VLE 1-ethyl-3-butylimidazolebromine ([BMIM][Br]) were detected at 101.3 kPa in an all-glass dynamic recirculating still. With the addition bromine–based ionic liquids, relative volatility to was enhanced azeotropy eventually eliminated. As separating effect, [EMIM][Br] is better than [BMIM][Br]. measured...

Chronic interstitial nephritis in agricultural communities (CINAC) is a severe and widespread disease that has been associated with environmental occupational exposure to glyphosate hard water. However, the potential underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Melatonin reported exert protective effects on kidney, but whether melatonin can attenuate renal tubular injury mice exposed combined water unclear. Here, were treated high doses environmentally relevant of (100 mg/kg·bw 0.7...
