A high-quality reference genome coupled with resequencing data is a promising strategy to address issues in conservation genomics. This has greatly enhanced the development of plans for endangered species. Pangolins are fascinating animals variety unique features. Unfortunately, they most trafficked wild animal world. In this study, we assembled chromosome-scale HiFi long reads and Hi-C short Chinese Malayan pangolin provided two new representative genomes We found great improvement...
In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of red-footed tortoise (Chelonoidis carbonarius). The compete C. carbonarius is 16,639 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA and two rRNA genes. mitogenome was deposited NCBI GenBank under accession number OQ789392. Furthermore, also constructed a phylogenetic tree Chelonoidis using eight species. These results will aid conservation from perspective genetic evolution.
Pangolin is one of the most endangered mammals with many peculiar characteristics, yet understanding its sensory systems still superficial. Studying genomic basis adaptation and evolution pangolin's system expected to provide further potential assistance for their conservation in future. In this study, we performed a comprehensive comparative analysis explore signature pangolins. By comparing aardvark, Cape golden mole, short-beaked echidna, 124 152 expanded gene families were detected...
In the process of species differentiation and adaption, relative influence natural selection on gene expression variation often remains unclear (especially its impact phenotypic divergence). this study, we used differentially expressed genes from brain, cochlea, liver samples collected two bats to determine forced by when comparing at interspecific (Rhinolophus siamensis R. episcopus episcopus) intraspecific (R. e. spp.) levels. both cases, was extensively adaptive (>66.0%) mainly...
Abstract Closely related species have been used as representative systems to investigate the genetic mechanisms involved in early stages of differentiation. Previous studies indicated that variation gene expression might be a sensitive indicator initial divergence, although role and especially associated with phenotypic remained relatively undefined. For three organs (cochlea, brain, liver) from two closely bat (Rhinolophus siamensis R. episcopus), interspecific intersubspecific profiles...
