As a natural hibernator, the Chinese alligator (Alligator sinensis) is an ideal and intriguing model to investigate changes in microbial community structure function caused by hibernation. In this study, we used 16S rRNA profiling metagenomic analysis compare composition, diversity, functional capacity gut microbiome of hibernating vs. active alligators. Our results show that communities undergo seasonal restructuring response cycles feeding fasting alligator, but animal harbors core...
The rice-fish system (RFS), a traditional coculture farming model, was selected as “globally important agricultural heritage system.” Host-associated microbiota play roles in development, metabolism, physiology, and immune function. However, studies on the gut of aquatic animals RFS are scarce, especially lack baseline knowledge dynamics microbial communities rice fish during different developmental stages. In this study, we characterized composition, community structure, functions several...
Host-associated microbiotas are known to influence host health by aiding digestion, metabolism, nutrition, physiology, immune function, and pathogen resistance. Although an increasing number of studies have investigated the avian microbiome, there is a lack research on gut wild birds, especially endangered pheasants. Owing difficulty characterizing dynamics dietary composition, in omnivores, how birds respond seasonal changes remains poorly understood. The Sichuan partridge (
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) plays an important role in immune response. Avian MHCs are not well characterized, only reporting highly compact Galliformes and extensively fragmented zebra finch MHC. We report the first genomic structure of endangered Pelecaniformes (crested ibis) MHC containing 54 genes three regions spanning ~500 kb. In contrast to loose BG (26 loci within 265 kb) Class I (11 150) structures, Core Region is condensed (17 85). Furthermore, this exhibits a...
Gut microbiota during early life could influence host fitness in vertebrates. Studies on how gut colonize the birds using frequent sampling developmental stages and shifts diversity growth are lacking. Here, we examine microbiome profiles of 151 fecal samples from 14 young crested ibis ( Nipponia nippon ), an endangered bird species, collected longitudinally across 13 time points development investigated their correlation with growth. showed a non-linear change development, which involved...
Highways are a critical consumer of energy. The integration the highway and energy system (ES) is proven method towards carbon neutrality. increasing demands transportation infrastructure development distributed storage technologies drive coupling between (HS) supply network, which becoming tighter than ever before. Many scholars have explored mode path integrated development. However, systems’ relationship collaborative planning scheme not been thoroughly studied. Facing interconnection...
A previous study identified genes and metabolites associated with amino acid metabolism, glycerophospholipid inflammatory response in the liver of broilers immune stress. The present research was designed to investigate effect stress on cecal microbiome broilers. In addition, correlation between altered microbiota gene expression, serum were compared using Spearman coefficients. Eighty broiler chicks randomly assigned 2 groups 4 replicate pens per group 10 birds pen. model intraperitoneally...
Abstract Background Crocidura , the most speciose mammalian genus, occurs across much of Asia, Europe and Africa. The taxonomy Chinese representatives has been studied primarily based on cursory morphological comparisons their molecular phylogenetic analyses remain unexplored. In order to understand phylogeny this group in China, we estimated first multilocus conducted species delimitation, including taxon sampling throughout distribution range. Results We obtained one mitochondrial gene (...
Extant giant pandas are divided into Sichuan and Qinling subspecies. The panda has many species-specific characteristics, including comparatively small organs for body size, genitalia of male individuals, low reproduction. Here, we report the most contiguous, high-quality chromosome-level genomes two extant subspecies to date, with first genome assembly Compared previously assembled based on short reads, our increased contiguity over 200-fold at contig level. Additional sequencing 25...
The β-defensin, one of the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), is a significant component innate immune with broad range activities. Differing from widely-studied mammals and birds, limited information about β-defensins has been reported in reptiles, especially crocodilians. As same ancient species as dinosaurs most endangered 23 crocodilians, survival Chinese alligator (Alligator sinensis) means powerful system possible involvement AMPs its resistance. In this study, we identified 20 novel...
Knowing the diet of endangered wild animals is a prerequisite for species-specific conservation and habitat management. The Sichuan partridge Arborophila rufipectus globally Galliformes species endemic to mountains southwest China. Existing information on this biased fragmented owing traditional observation methods. Little known about their dietary composition or how they respond temporal variations in food resources throughout year. In study, analysis was performed 60 fecal samples using...
Abstract Background Exploring the association of diet and indoor outdoor environments on gut microbiome red-crowned cranes. We investigated profile 24 fecal samples collected from nine cranes day 1 to 35. Differences in composition were compared across environments. Results A total 2,883 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) detected, with 438 species-specific OTUs 106 common microbiomes four groups. The abundance Dietzia Clostridium XI increased significantly when initially fed live mealworms....
Targeting on the goal of carbon peaking and neutralization, transportation sector is facing pressure reduction, emission reduction energy transformation simultaneously. Building a green, flexible, self-consistent sustainable road integration system has become an inevitable trend for future development in area without power grid. This paper proposes micro grid model wind solar with hydrogen storage highway service connection. On this basis, optimal configuration proposed minimizing...
Abstract Diet analysis of potential small mammals pest species is important for understanding feeding ecology and evaluating their impact on crops stored foods. Chinese mole shrew ( Anourosorex squamipes ), distributed in Southwest China, has previously been reported as a farmland pest. Effective population management this requires better its diet, which can be difficult to determine with high taxonomic resolution using conventional microhistological methods. In study, we used two DNA...
The striped-back shrew group demonstrates remarkable variation in skull and body size, tail length, brightness of the dorsal stripe; karyotypic DNA has been reported recent years. In this study, we investigated phylogenetic structure group, as well speciation patterns demographic history Mountains Southwestern China adjacent mountains, including southern Himalayas, Mts. Bashan, Wushan, Qinling. We sequenced a total 462 specimens from 126 localities known range which were analyzed based on...
The Himalayan shrew, Soriculus nigrescens Gray, 1842, belongs to the monotypic genus Soriculus, which is distributed mainly in region. Previous authors have studied its classification based on morphological and molecular data. However, no comprehensive study of diversity phylogeny this species has been performed. In study, we investigated phylogeny, genetic diversity, divergence S. one mitochondrial gene three nuclear genes. A total 124 samples from 27 sites Southwest China were analyzed....

The elegant water shrew, Nectogale elegans, is one of the small mammal species most adapted to a semi-aquatic lifestyle. taxonomy genus has received little attention due difficulties in specimen collection. In this study, we sequenced mitochondrial and eight nuclear genes infer phylogenetic relationship Nectogale. Phylogenetic analyses revealed two large clades within One clade represented N. other was regarded as sikhimensis. split between elegans sikhimensis dated back early Pleistocene...
With the increasing proportion of wind power in grid, virtual inertia control has become one most important means for a turbine generator (WTG) to participate frequency regulation. However, single coefficient selected through engineering experience is difficult apply different conditions, which may result poor modulation effect and even WTG instability. Considering complex relationship between setting many factors, are analyze describe, this paper proposes novel control, whose parameter set...
