Thirteen new species are formally described:
Amorphophallus konjac, a perennial herb in the Araceae family, is cash crop that can produce large amount of konjac glucomannan. To explore mechanisms underlying such genomes genus as well gene regulation glucomannan biosynthesis, we present chromosome-level genome assembly A. with total size 5.60 Gb and contig N50 1.20 Mb. Comparative genomic analysis reveals has undergone two whole-genome duplication (WGD) events quick succession. Two recent bursts transposable elements are identified...
The heterogeneity of CARM1 controls first cell fate bias during early mouse development. However, how this is established unknown. Here, we show that Carm1 mRNA a variety specific exon-skipping splicing (ESS) isoforms in two-cell to four-cell embryos contribute heterogeneity. Disruption paraspeckles promotes the ESS precursor mRNAs (pre-mRNAs). LincGET, but not Neat1, required for paraspeckle assembly and inhibits pre-mRNAs embryos. We further find LincGET recruits gene locus through HNRNPU....
The durian (Durio zibethinus) genome has recently become available, and analysis of this reveals two paleopolyploidization events previously inferred as shared with cotton (Gossypium spp.). Here, we reanalyzed the in comparison other well-characterized genomes. We found that were actually affected by different polyploidization events: hexaploidization ∼19–21 million years ago (mya) decaploidization ∼13–14 mya. Previous interpretations may have resulted from elevated evolutionary rates genes...
Abstract Background Bombax ceiba L. (the red silk cotton tree) is a large deciduous tree that distributed in tropical and sub-tropical Asia as well northern Australia. It has great economic ecological importance, with several applications industry traditional medicine many Asian countries. To facilitate further utilization of this plant resource, we present here the draft genome sequence for B. ceiba. Findings We assembled relatively intact by using PacBio single-molecule sequencing BioNano...
Abstract Lindera obtusiloba Blume is the northernmost tree species in family Lauraceae, and it a key understanding evolutionary history of this family. The L. East Asia has diverged into Northern Southern populations, which are geographically separated by an arid belt. Though morphological differences between populations have been observed well documented, intraspecific variations at plastomic level not systematically investigated to date. Here, ten chloroplast genomes individuals were...
Morphological comparisons and multi locus phylogenetic analyses (base on the combined genes of ITS, LSU, rpb 2 tub ) demonstrated that three new saprobic taxa isolated from bamboo belong to Cainiaceae. These comprise a novel genus Paramphibambusa ( P. bambusicola sp. nov. two species, Arecophila xishuangbannaensis A. zhaotongensis . The Cainiaceae (Xylariales, Sordariomycetes) poorly studied family, which now comprises eight genera. can be distinguished other genera in having ascomata with...
Inactivation or mutations of FAM20C causes human Raine Syndrome, which manifests as lethal osteosclerosis bone dysplasia non-lethal hypophosphatemia rickets. However, it is only rickets that was reported in the mice with Fam20c deletion mutations. To further investigate local and global impacts mutation, we constructed a knock-in allele carrying mutation (D446N) found Syndrome. The Fam20cD446N replaced WT by 3.6Kb Col1a1-Cre to get conditional mice, Hprt-cre conventional respectively....
The genus Strobilomyces, representing a diverse and widespread group of ectomycorrhizal mushroom-forming fungi, plays crucial ecological economical role. However, until now, comprehensive description its mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) has been lacking. In our current study, we have successfully assembled analysed the mitogenomes five Strobilomyces species. These span range from 35,618 base pairs (bp) to 42,088 bp, exhibiting higher nucleotide abundance AT compared GC. All harbour 14...
Abstract Strobilomyces alpinus is a unique and significant mushroom endemic to southwestern central China, characterized by its exclusive subalpine distribution strong host preference for Abies spp. The biological genetic studies of this are scarce, which significantly hinders research on molecular breeding evolutionary patterns. In study, we report the de novo sequencing assembly S. genome using DNBSEQ-T7 third-generation Pacific Biosciences platform. total size was approximately 58.75 Mb,...
Mycotoxins are among the primary factors compromising food quality and safety. To investigate mycotoxin contamination, microbial diversity, functional profiles in maize across distinct geographic regions, this study analyzed samples from Xuanwei, Fuyuan, Zhanyi. Mycotoxin concentrations were quantified through standardized assays, while community structures characterized using metagenomics sequencing. Metabolic pathways, genes, enzymatic activities systematically annotated with KEGG, eggNOG,...
Circadian rhythms are fundamental for regulating physiological processes in organisms, with disruptions often linked to metabolic disorders. This study investigated the role of roraa gene zebrafish, particularly its influence on circadian and regulation. Using quantitative PCR situ hybridization, we confirmed rhythmic expression explored oscillatory mechanisms. The construction knockout mutants revealed that absence disrupts clock function, as evidenced by reduced core genes altered...
One new flavonoid named (2R,3R)-7-O-galloylplumbocatechin A (1) and three known flavonoids, (−)-5,3',4',5'-tetrahydroxyflavan-7-gallate (2), (+)-3,5,3',4',5'-penta-hydroxyflavan-7-gallate (3), (−)-7,4'-di-O-galloyltricetiflavan (4), were isolated from Pithecellobium clypearia Benth. Their structures elucidated based on spectroscopic analysis, including homonuclear heteronuclear correlation NMR (HSQC HMBC) experiments. In vitro assays, compounds 1 2 showed moderate inhibitory effects against...
Abstract Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are fundamental signal transduction modules in all eukaryotic organisms, controlling cell division, growth, development, and hormone signaling. Additionally, they can be activated response to a variety of biotic abiotic stressors. Although the evolution expression patterns MAPK cascade families have been systematically investigated several model plants (e.g., Arabidopsis , rice, poplar), we still know very little about MAPKK MAPKKK...
Amorphophallus paeoniifolius, is a commercially important vegetable crop because of its high production potential. In this study, we generated total 166 Gb genomic data from 16 wild and 20 cultivated A. paeoniifolius individuals in southwestern China using restriction site associated DNA sequencing (RAD-seq). We compared the genome-wide variations between populations. Wild populations exhibited higher genetic diversity than did based on private allele number, expected heterozygosity,...
Litsea, a non-monophyletic group of the tribe Laureae (Lauraceae), plays important roles in tropical and subtropical forests Asia, Australia, Central North America, islands Pacific. However, intergeneric relationships between Litsea Laurus, Lindera, Parasassafras Sinosassafras remain unresolved. In this study, we present phylogenetic analyses seven newly sequenced plastomes, together with 47 plastomes obtained from public databases, representing six genera Laureae. Our results highlight two...
Phylogenetic studies aim to discover evolutionary relationships and histories. These are based on similarities of morphological characters molecular sequences. Currently, widely accepted phylogenetic approaches multiple sequence alignments, which analyze shared gene datasets concatenate/coalesce these results a final phylogeny with maximum support. However, still have limitations, often conflicting each other. Reconstructing ancestral genomes helps us understand mechanisms corresponding...
