Dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes occurs mostly by conjugation, which mediates DNA transfer between cells in direct contact. Conjugative plasmids the IncA/C incompatibility group have become a substantial threat due to their broad host-range, extended spectrum antimicrobial they confer, prevalence enteric bacteria and very efficient spread conjugation. However, biology remains largely unexplored. Using conjugative plasmid pVCR94ΔX as prototype, we investigated regulatory circuitry...
Some tropical sea cucumbers of the family Holothuriidae can efficiently repel or even fatally ensnare predators by sacrificially ejecting a bioadhesive matrix termed Cuvierian organ (CO), so named French zoologist Georges Cuvier who first described it in 1831. Still, precise mechanisms for how adhesiveness genetically arose CO and perceive transduce danger signals expulsion during defense have remained unclear. Here, we report high-quality, chromosome-level genome assembly
To understand the seasonality of methane flux from alpine wetlands in Zoige Plateau, 30 plots were set to measure emissions growing and nongrowing seasons three environmental types: dry hummock (DH), Carex muliensis (CM), Eleocharis valleculosa (EV) sites. There clearly seasonal patterns different types seasons. Mean emission rate was 14.45 mg CH 4 m −2 h −1 (0.17 86.78 ) season, 0.556 (0.002 6.722 season. In main maximum values found July August, except for a peak value September CM similar...
Despite that Vibrio spp. have a significant impact on the health of humans and aquatic animals, molecular basis their pathogenesis is little known, mainly due to limited genetic tools for functional research genes in Vibrio. In some cases, deletion target DNAs can be achieved through use suicide vectors. However, these strategies are time-consuming lack universality, widely used counterselectable gene sacB does not work well cells. this study, we developed universal rapid efficient mutations...
The Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) is an important cultured crustacean species worldwide. However, little known about the molecular mechanism of this involved in response to cold stress. In study, four separate RNA-Seq libraries L. vannamei were generated from 13°C stress and control temperature. Total 29,662 Unigenes overall 19,619 annotated genes obtained. Three comparisons carried out among libraries, which 72 top 20% differentially-expressed obtained, 15 GO 5 KEGG...
Heat shock proteins (HSPs), a family of conserved that are produced by cells in response to stresses, known as molecular chaperones with range housekeeping and cellular protective functions. The 40 kD heat protein (HSP40) is co-chaperone for HSP70 the regulation ATP hydrolysis. Unlike its well-documented cofactor HSP70, little currently regarding biological functions HSP40 crustacean species such penaeid shrimp. In present study, cDNA encoding (Lv-HSP40) was identified from Pacific white...
Abstract Understanding the relative importance of factors driving patterns biodiversity is a key research topic in community ecology and biogeography. However, main drivers plant species diversity montane forests are still not clear. In addition, most existing studies make no distinction between direct indirect effects environmental spatial constraints on biodiversity. Using data from 107 forest plots Sichuan Giant Panda habitat, China, we quantified abiotic factors, constraints, functional...
Oocyte maturation and ovarian development are sequentially coordinated events critical to reproduction. In the ovaries of adult oviparous animals such as birds, bony fish, insects crustaceans, vitellogenin receptor (VgR) is a plasma membrane that specifically mediates (Vg) transport into oocytes. Accumulation Vg drives sexual female crustaceans by acting pivotal regulator nutritional accumulation within oocytes, process known vitellogenesis. However, mechanisms which VgR vitellogenesis still...
<title>Abstract</title> Vibriosis caused by various <italic>Vibrio</italic> species is the most serious bacterial disease of shrimp. Due to prevalence pathogenic vibrios, genetic breeding shrimps with pan-vibrios resistance (PVR) trait has more practical significance for successful shrimp farming. To explore loci associated PVR <italic>Litopenaeus vannamei</italic>, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) aiming at was conducted using 300 individuals from sources. After stringent screening,...
Litopenaeus vannamei is a key economic species in aquaculture, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its growth variability remain unclear. This study conducted transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of fast-growing (NL) slow-growing (NS) shrimp under identical conditions. A total 1280 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to protein processing, ribosomes, oxidative phosphorylation, along with 5297 abundant metabolites (DMs) involved arginine biosynthesis, amino acid metabolism,...
Vibrio alginolyticus is a Gram-negative bacterium and has been recognized as an opportunistic pathogen in humans well marine animals. However, the virulence mechanisms for this species of have not elucidated. This study characterized multiple that induce cell death fish cells upon infection with V. strain, ZJO. The required its type III secretion system (T3SS) to cause rapid infected cells. Dying exhibited some features apoptotic cells, such membrane blebbing, nuclear condensation DNA...
Abstract Predicting the impact of grazing on vegetation structure, and thus ecosystem services, is one main technical bottlenecks in alpine grassland conservation management. However, past researches based fixed, discrete, qualitative indicators limited our understanding for effect plant community assembly. Research quantitative competitor, stress tolerator, ruderal (CSR) theory increases possibilities analyzing this ecological process. To test hypothesis that dominant strategy meadow will...
Climate and human-driven changes play an important role in regional droughts. Northwest Yunnan Province is a key region for biodiversity conservation China, it has experienced severe droughts since the beginning of this century; however, extent contributions from climate remains unclear. We calculated ecosystem evapotranspiration (ET) water yield (WY) northwest Province, China 2001 to 2013 using meteorological remote sensing observation data Surface Energy Balance System (SEBS) model....
