The bHLH (basic helix–loop–helix) transcription factors function as crucial regulators in numerous biological processes including abiotic stress responses and plant development. According to our RNA-seq analysis of tomato seedlings under salt stress, we found that, although the gene family has been studied, there are still so many genes that have not identified named, which will hinder later study SlbHLHs. In total, 195 SlbHLHs were unevenly distributed onto 12 chromosomes from genome...
The Tibetan grey wolf (Canis lupus chanco) occupies habitats on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a high altitude (>3000 m) environment where low oxygen tension exerts unique selection pressure individuals to adapt hypoxic conditions. To identify genes involved in hypoxia adaptation, we generated complete genome sequences of nine Chinese wolves from and populations at an average coverage 25× coverage. We found that, beginning about 55,000 years ago, highland suffered more substantial population...
Noncoding transcription is a defining feature of active enhancers, linking factor (TF) binding to the molecular mechanisms controlling gene expression.

The underwent an ancient triplication, similar to core eudicots, but there have been no recent whole‐genome...
Abstract Folliculogenesis is a complex biological process involving central oocyte and its surrounding somatic cells. Three-dimensional chromatin architecture an important transcription regulator; however, little known about dynamics role in transcriptional regulation of granulosa cells during chicken folliculogenesis. We investigate the transcriptomic over ten follicular stages assess how it influences gene expression at three key stages: prehierarchical small white follicles, first largest...
Abstract The quantification of animal social behaviour is an essential step to reveal brain functions and psychiatric disorders during interaction phases. While deep learning-based approaches have enabled precise pose estimation, identification behavioural classification multi-animals, their application challenged by the lack well-annotated datasets. Here we show a computational framework, Social Behavior Atlas (SBeA) used overcome problem caused limited SBeA uses much smaller number...
In plants, hexokinase (HXK) is a kind of bifunctional enzyme involved in sugar metabolism and signal transduction that plays important roles plant growth development stress response. Some HXK genes without phosphorylation function have been found Arabidopsis, tobacco, etc., but these not identified tomato. Therefore, further genome-wide systematic identification characterization necessary for tomato genes. this study, six were from the genome distributed across different chromosomes, named...
Abstract Background Species living at high altitude are subject to strong selective pressures due inhospitable environments (e.g., hypoxia, low temperature, solar radiation, and lack of biological production), making these species valuable models for comparative analyses local adaptation. Studies that have examined high-altitude adaptation identified a vast array rapidly evolving genes characterize the dramatic phenotypic changes in animals. However, how environment shapes gene expression...
Stripe rust is a serious fungal disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), which results in yield reduction and decreased grain quality. Breeding for genetic resistance to stripe the most cost-effective method control disease. In present study, genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted identify markers linked genes (or loci) 93 Northern Chinese landraces, using Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) simple sequence repeat (SSR) molecular...
Avian ovaries develop asymmetrically apart from prey birds, with only the left ovary growing more towards functional organ. Here, we analyze over 135,000 cells chick's and right at six distinct embryonic developmental stages utilizing single-cell transcriptome sequencing. We delineate gene expression patterns across 15 cell types within these embryo ovaries, revealing side-specific development. The exhibit cortex cells, zygotene germ transcriptional changes unique to side. Differential...
The ammonia monooxygenase (AMO)/particulate methane (pMMO) superfamily is a diverse group of membrane-bound enzymes which only pMMO has been characterized on the molecular level. active site believed to reside in soluble N-terminal region pmoB subunit. To understand degree structural conservation within this superfamily, crystal structure corresponding domain an archaeal amoB subunit from Nitrosocaldus yellowstonii determined 1.8 Å resolution. reveals remarkable overall fold and copper...
The interaction of melanocortin-4 (MC4R) and melanocortin-3 (MC3R) receptors with proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived peptides (e.g. α-MSH), agouti-related protein (AgRP) melanocortin-2 receptor accessory 2 (MRAP2) is suggested to play critical roles in energy balance vertebrates. However, evidence on their birds remains scarce. Our study aims reveal chickens the results showed that (1) chicken (c-)MC3R cMC4R expressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells can be activated by α-MSH ACTH1-39...
Stripe rust (also called yellow rust) is a common and serious fungal disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici. The narrow genetic basis modern cultivars rapid evolution the pathogen have been responsible for periodic devastating epidemics diseases. In this study, we conducted genome-wide association study with 44,059 single nucleotide polymorphism markers to identify loci associated resistance stripe in 244 Sichuan accessions, including 79...
Macaques are the most widely distributed nonhuman primates and used as animal models in biomedical research. The availability of full-genome sequences from them would be essential to both primate evolutionary studies. Previous studies have reported whole-genome rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) cynomolgus (M. fascicularis, CE), which belong fascicularis group. Here, we present a 37-fold coverage genome sequence Tibetan thibetana; TM). TM is an endemic species China belonging sinica On basis...
