The oral microbiome, the complex ecosystem of microbes inhabiting human mouth, harbors several thousands bacterial types. proliferation pathogenic bacteria within mouth gives rise to periodontitis, an inflammatory disease known also constitute a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. While much is about individual species associated with pathogenesis, system-level mechanisms underlying transition from health are still poorly understood. Through sequencing 16S rRNA gene and whole community...

Abstract Polyploidy is an evolutionary innovation for many animals and all flowering plants, but its impact on selection domestication remains elusive. Here we analyze genome evolution diversification five allopolyploid cotton species, including economically important Upland Pima cottons. Although these polyploid genomes are conserved in gene content synteny, they have diversified by subgenomic transposon exchanges that equilibrate size, rate heterogeneities positive between homoeologs...

Brassica rapa comprises several important cultivated vegetables and oil crops. Current reference genome assemblies of are quite fragmented not highly contiguous, thereby limiting extensive genetic genomic analyses. Here, we report an improved assembly the B.

Polyploidization, both ancient and recent, is frequent among plants. A "two-step theory" was proposed to explain the meso-triplication of Brassica "A" genome: rapa. By accurately partitioning this genome, we observed that genes in less fractioned subgenome (LF) were dominantly expressed over more subgenomes (MFs: MF1 MF2), while slightly MF2. The results indicated tended be resistant against gene fractionation. re-sequencing two B. rapa accessions: a vegetable turnip (VT117) Rapid Cycling...

Sub-therapeutic antibiotics are widely used as growth promoters in the poultry industry; however, resulting antibiotic resistance threatens public health. A plant-derived promoter, Macleaya cordata extract (MCE), with effective ingredients of benzylisoquinoline alkaloids, is a potential alternative to promoters. Altered intestinal microbiota play important roles promotion, but underlying mechanism remains unknown. We generated 1.64 terabases metagenomic data from 495 chicken digesta samples...

Abstract The rapid wide‐scale spread of fall armyworm ( Spodoptera frugiperda ) has caused serious crop losses globally. However, differences in the genetic background subpopulations and mechanisms adaptation behind invasion are still not well understood. Here we report assembly a 390.38‐Mb chromosome‐level genome derived from south‐central Africa using Pacific Bioscience (PacBio) Hi‐C sequencing technologies, with scaffold N50 12.9 Mb containing 22,260 annotated protein‐coding genes....

In the realm of patent document analysis, assessing semantic similarity between phrases presents a significant challenge, notably amplifying inherent complexities Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) research. Firstly, this study addresses these challenges, recognizing early CPC work while acknowledging past struggles with language barriers and intricacy. Secondly, it underscores persisting difficulties To overcome challenges bolster system, This paper two key innovations. introduces an...

Abstract The codling moth Cydia pomonella , a major invasive pest of pome fruit, has spread around the globe in last half century. We generated chromosome-level scaffold assembly including Z chromosome and portion W chromosome. This reveals duplication an olfactory receptor gene ( OR3 ), which we demonstrate enhances ability C. to exploit kairomones pheromones locating both host plants mates. Genome-wide association studies contrasting insecticide-resistant susceptible strains identify...

Anthocyanins are a group of flavonoid compounds. As important secondary metabolites, they perform several key biological functions in plants. also play beneficial health roles as potentially protective factors against cancer and heart disease. To elucidate the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway Brassica rapa, we conducted comparative genomic analyses between Arabidopsis thaliana B. rapa on genome-wide level. In total, identified 73 genes orthologs 41 A. thaliana. (ABGs) have expanded most...

Abstract Blight-resistant rice lines are the most effective solution for bacterial blight, caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. ( Xoo ). Key resistance mechanisms involve SWEET genes as susceptibility factors. Bacterial transcription activator-like (TAL) effectors bind to effector-binding elements (EBEs) in gene promoters and induce genes. EBE variants that cannot be recognized TAL abrogate induction, causing resistance. Here we describe a diagnostic kit enable analysis of blight field...

Plant retrotransposons are largely inactive during normal development, but may be activated by stresses. Both copia-like and gypsy-like of rice were introgression DNA from the wild species Zizania latifolia Griseb. The copy number increase was associated with cytosine methylation changes elements. Activity elements ephemeral, as evidenced nearly identical genomic Southern hybridization patterns among randomly chosen individuals both within between generations for a given line, absence...

Abstract Background Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici is a fungal pathogen causing stripe rust, one of the most important wheat diseases worldwide. The fungus strictly biotrophic and thus, completely dependent on living host cells for its reproduction, which makes it difficult to study genes pathogen. In spite economic importance, little known about molecular basis compatible interaction between host. this study, we identified P. associated with infection process by conducting large-scale...
