Artificial gynogenesis is an important method for accelerating the selective breeding of varieties and populations. In this study, ultraviolet-irradiated sperm Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was used to activate mature eggs mrigal (Cirrhinus mrigala, MC), after cold shock at 4–8 °C 16 min double chromosomes, a population gynogenetic (GMC) obtained. The fertilization rate, hatching rate survival GMC exceeded 62.2%, 6.3% 2.9%, respectively. Comparative analyses morphological traits, DNA...

Abstract The tachinid fly, Exorista sorbillans, is a notorious ovolarviparous endoparasitoid of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, causing severe damage to silkworm cocoon industry. Silkworm larvae show typically precocious wandering behavior after being parasitized by E. sorbillans; however, underlying molecular mechanism remains unexplored. Herein, we investigated changes in levels 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and juvenile hormone (JH) titer, they both increased hemolymph silkworms. Furthermore,...

Abstract The suppression of recombination is considered a hallmark sex chromosome evolution. However, previous research has identified undifferentiated chromosomes and determination by single SNP in the greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili). We observed same phenomena golden pompano (Trachinotus ovatus) family Carangidae discovered different sex-determining within gene Hsd17b1. propose an evolutionary model elucidating turnover mutations highlighting contrasting dynamics between purifying...

Abstract Background To determine the presence and abundance of an aquatic species in large waterbodies, especially when populations are at low densities, is highly challenging for conservation biologists. Environmental DNA (eDNA) has potential to offer a noninvasive cost-effective method complement traditional population monitoring, however, eDNA not been extensively applied study migratory species. Chinese sturgeon ( Acipenser sinensis ), largest anadromous fish Yangtze River, China, recent...

Understanding the reproductive strategy of an organism is important in conservation ecology as it directly affects population performance under changing environmental conditions. Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) are largest anadromous fish Yangtze River, China. Currently, species has only one spawning ground and failed to spawn recent years, leading brink extinction. To develop effective measures, a further understanding its needed. In our study, we conducted kinship analyses by using...

ABSTRACT. The microsporidian Nosema philosamiae is a pathogen that infects the eri-silkworm Philosamia cynthia ricini. complete sequence of rRNA gene (4,314 bp) was obtained by polymerase chain reaction amplification with specific primers and sequencing. analysis showed organization N. similar to pattern bombycis. Phylogenetic sequences revealed had close relationship other species, confirming correctly assigned genus Nosema.

Microsporidia Nosema bombycis (Nb) is a cellular parasite responsible for pébrine disease in silkworms, significantly impacting the sericulture industry. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are RNA fragments longer than 200 nucleotides, pivotal range of and physiological functions. However, potential role silkworm lncRNAs response to Nb infection remains unknown. This study conducted transcriptome sequencing on both larvae Nb-infected midguts identifying 1,440 across all examined midgut...

The most important pathogenic fungus of the silkworm, Bombyx mori L. (Lepidoptera: Bombyci-dae), is Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo-Crivelli ) Vuillemin (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae), which causes significant damage to sericulture production. Therefore, diagnosing fungal disease and developing new control measures are crucial silk To better understand responsive interactive mechanisms between host silkworm this fungus, variations in gene expression were investigated using suppression...

Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) modification (SUMOylation) is an important and widely used reversible system in eukaryotic cells. It regulates various cell processes, including protein targeting, transcriptional regulation, signal transduction, division. To understand its role the model lepidoptera insect Bombyx mori, a recombinant baculovirus was constructed to express enhanced green fluorescent (eGFP)-SUMO fusion along with ubiquitin carrier 9 of mori (BmUBC9). SUMOylation substrates...
