We document type material of 41 nominal species from mainland China that were originally assigned to Diplommatina . This catalogue is based on inspection the Heude Type collection in National Zoological Museum China, Beijing and complemented with information types held by other international museums a comprehensive literature review. designate lectotypes five species, abbreviata Heude, 1890, D. confusa 1885, intermedia minuscula pupinella 1885 pyra 1885. In addition, new yipingica Zhang, sp....
Variant calling is a crucial step in identifying genetic variation DNA sequences reconstructed from assembled sequencer reads. This study investigates the effect of reference genome selection on reliability variant and assesses consequences choice phylogenomic analyses downstream. Employing an empirical exon capture sequence dataset, we used analysis pipeline implemented Reference Genome based Phylogeny Pipeline (RGBEPP) that includes steps quality control, read mapping, calling,...
Although Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI), very little information regarding the prevalence of MG among MSM (men who have sex with men) available in China. The objective this study was to determine city Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China, and identify potential risk factors associated population. Between January May 2010, total 409 were recruited An anonymous questionnaire used collect their sociological sexual behaviors. In addition, first-void...
Abstract The superfamily Helicoidei are a widely distributed and diverse infraorder of land snails slugs. Here, we constructed phylogenetic tree based on sequences the large subunit ribosomal RNA gene to investigate relationships within Helicoidei. Based our tree, family Camaenidae, as currently recognized, is not monophyletic, with Polygyridae falling group. Likewise, Hygromiidae defined monophyletic incorporates Geomitridae. Xanthoncyhidae form group that sister Pleurodontidae. Helicidae...
Abstract Cathaica is a genus of bradybaenid land snails occurring in China and widespread Shandong Province. Here we re-describe three species, C. pyrrhozona, fasciola leei, describe two new fohuiensis Zhang sp. nov. multicostata nov.. Geometric morphometric analyses demonstrate that fasciola, leei are conchologically similar. Based on differences their genitalia molecular data, consider pyrrhozona to be distinct species. This re-establishes as the type species Cathaica. can distinguished...
The genus PseudiberusAncey, 1887, in Shandong, China, distributed the mid to south mountainous areas of province, represents largest terrestrial mollusks this region. By molecular phylogenetic inference and genetic distance comparison based on ITS2 + 16S sequences, P. tectumsinense (Martens, 1873), zenonis (Gredler, 1882), anderssoni (Odhner, 1925) depressus (Yen, 1935), are confirmed be subspecies under 1873). Pseudiberus pingi, new subspecies, is proposed shell morphology, anatomy,...
Phylogenetic analyses based on morphological character and molecular data indicate that Platypetasus Pilsbry, 1895 should not be synonymized with Pseudiberus Ancey, 1887. These genera occur in different geographical areas; species are distributed the Qinling, Taihang, Yimeng, Taishan mountains, Daxueshan, Qionglaishan, Minshan, Dabashan mountains. Here we describe a new species, shanheicus n. sp., from Henan Province, China. Its shell is distinguished by its ribless surface hollow peripheral...
This study aimed to gain information on the antimicrobial susceptibility and molecular epidemiological typing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) isolates in China 2012.A total 244 NG were consecutively recovered from patients with uncomplicated gonorrhea attending sexually transmitted disease clinics 3 Chinese cities-Guangzhou, Nanjing, Tianjin-in 2012. susceptibilities penicillin tetracycline examined by detecting penicillinase-producing (PPNG) high-level tetracycline-resistant NG,...

Abstract Recombineering is a highly efficient DNA cloning and modification technique by using the recombinase-mediated homologous recombination. Selection/counterselection cassette often used in chromosomal or large episomal manipulation, which selection marker for first step selection, while counterselection second replacement of target gene. A variety selection/counterselection cassettes are reported, however, they suffer from shortcomings requirement pre-engineered strain specific culture...
Abstract Site-directed mutagenesis and saturation are essential means for gene protein studies. For plasmid-based mutation, PCR overlap-extension still the most often used methods; however, methods usually involve time-consuming labor-intensive cloning steps. When plasmid size is larger than 5 kb, may fail or yield be too low to meet demand. Still, PCR-mediated mutagenesis, one experiment not enough get all 20 variants. Recombineering sidesteps complicated process by electroporating...
