The evolution of TLR-mediated innate immunity is a fundamental question in immunology. Here, we report the characterization and functional analysis four TLR members lophotrochozoans Crassostrea gigas (CgTLRs). All CgTLRs bear conserved domain organization have close relationship with TLRs ancient non-vertebrate chordates. In HEK293 cells, every CgTLR could constitutively activate NF-κB responsive reporter, but none PAMPs tested stimulate CgTLR-activated induction. Subcellular localization...
The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is one of the dominant sessile inhabitants estuarine intertidal zone, which a physically harsh environment due to presence number stressors. Oysters have adapted highly dynamic and stressful environments, but molecular mechanisms underlying such stress adaptation are largely unknown. In present study, we examined proteomic responses in gills C. exposed three stressors (high temperature, low salinity, aerial exposure) they often encounter field. We...
Nautilus is the sole surviving externally shelled cephalopod from Palaeozoic. It unique within genealogy and critical to understanding evolutionary novelties of cephalopods. Here, we present a complete pompilius genome as fundamental genomic reference on innovations, such pinhole eye biomineralization. shows compact, minimalist with few encoding genes slow rates in both non-coding coding regions among known Importantly, multiple innovations including gene losses, independent contraction...
Background The reproductive mechanisms of mollusk species have been interesting targets in biological research because the diverse strategies observed this phylum. These also studied for development fishery technologies molluscan aquaculture. Although molecular underlying process well animal models, relevant information from mollusks remains limited, particularly great commercial interest. Crassostrea hongkongensis is dominant oyster that distributed along coast South China Sea and little...
This study is the first systematic comparison of biochemical composition and nutritional quality between diploid triploid Hong Kong oysters, Crassostrea hongkongensis. Results showed that in reproductive season, glycogen content five tissues (gill, mantle, adductor muscle, labial palps gonad) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) triploids than diploids, with odds ratios (ORs) 96.26%, 60.17%, 72.59%, 53.56% 128.52%, respectively. In non-reproductive phase significant differences oysters...
Abstract Tridacna crocea is an ecologically important marine bivalve inhabiting tropical coral reef waters. High quality and available genomic resources will help us understand the population structure genetic diversity of giant clams. This study reports a high-quality chromosome-scale T. genome sequence 1.30 Gb, with scaffold N50 contig 56.38 Mb 1.29 Mb, respectively, which was assembled by combining PacBio long reads Hi-C sequencing data. Repetitive sequences cover 71.60% total length,...
Abstract Giant clams, with their significant ecological importance, depend on associated bacteria for health and development, yet the transmission modes succession of community dynamics these remain poorly understood. This study employed 16S rRNA gene sequencing microscopy to investigate symbiotic in giant clam Tridacna crocea during early developmental stages (fertilized eggs, blastocyst, D-larvae, pediveliger larvae). Fluorescence situ hybridization electron did not detect internal...
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are widely used to improve soil nutrients and promote plant growth health. However, the effect of a single PGPR on plants is limited. Here, we evaluated applying rhizobium Bradyrhizobium japonicum 5038 (R5038) two strains, Bacillus aryabhattai MB35-5 (BA) Paenibacillus mucilaginosus 3016 (PM), alone or in different combinations properties rhizosphere bacterial community composition soybean (Glycine max). Additionally, metagenomic sequencing was...
Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis ( G. ) protein was hydrolyzed with alkaline protease to obtain antioxidant peptides. The enzymatic hydrolysis conditions were optimized through single-factor and orthogonal experiments. results showed that the optimal process parameters using 2% of protease, substrate concentration 1 g/100 mL 2 h at pH 8.0. Gel filtration chromatography RP-HPLC adopted for isolating purifying peptides from hydrolysate (GLPH). Three novel identified as LSPGEL (614.68 Da), VYFDR...
Abstract Five new limonoids, including andhraxylocarpins A and B ( 1 2 ) which contain a 9‐oxa‐tricyclo[3.3.2.1 7, 10 ]undecane‐2‐ene motif, C D 3 4 ), Z )‐bicyclo[5.2.1]dec‐3‐en‐8‐one substructure, andhraxylocarpin E 5 contains tricyclo[3.3.1.1 3, 6 ]decane‐9‐one scaffold, were isolated from the seeds of two true mangroves, Xylocarpus granatum moluccensis , that collected in estuaries Andhra Pradesh, India. The absolute configurations these compounds determined by extensive NMR...
Crassostrea hongkongensis, a commercially valuable aquaculture species dwelling in estuaries along the coast of South China Sea, is remarkable for its eurysalinity traits that enable successful colonization diverse osmotic niches ranging from near freshwater to seawater. In order elucidate how this oyster copes with coastal waters immense salinity differences, we performed situ transcriptomic analysis (RNA-seq) characterize global expression patterns oysters distributed across naturally...
The Hong Kong oyster, Crassostrea hongkongensis is an economically important and widely cultivated oyster species in southern China. Aiming to improve the aquaculture potentials of C. hongkongensis, a triploid organism was generated by inhibiting second polar body formation fertilized eggs, using 0.5 mg L−1 cytochalasin B. Triploids exhibited significantly higher growth were larger than diploids throughout life cycle. Much advantage can be attributed resource reallocation structural...
Hemocytes play unequivocally central roles in host immune defense of bivalve mollusks, though the exact mechanisms underlying their functional differentiation are only partially understood. To this end, granulocytes and hyalinocytes were sorted via flow cytometry from hemocytes Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas, consequently quantitative transcriptomic analysis revealed a striking array deferentially expressed genes (DEGs), which globally upregulated granulocytes, dedicating to among...
Gonad development and differentiation is an essential function for all sexually reproducing species, many aspects of these developmental processes are highly conserved among the metazoa. However, mechanisms underlying gonad gametogenesis remain unclear in Tridacna squamosa, a large-size bivalve great ecological value. They protandrous simultaneous hermaphrodites, with male maturing first, eventually followed by female gonads. In this study, nine libraries representing resting, hermaphrodite...
