Abstract Rosidae , a clade of approximately 90 000 species angiosperms, exhibits remarkable morphological diversity and extraordinary heterogeneity in habitats life forms. Resolving phylogenetic relationships within has been difficult, large part due to nested radiations the enormous size clade. Current estimates phylogeny contain areas poor resolution and/or support, there have few attempts synthesize available data into comprehensive view phylogeny. We aim improve understanding with dense...
Complementary clues from enzyme and genome evolution reveal how a mint turned into catmint.
Abstract We reconstructed a phylogenetic tree of Chinese vascular plants (Tracheophyta) using sequences the chloroplast genes atpB , matK ndhF and rbcL mitochondrial matR . produced matrix comprising 6098 species including 13 695 DNA sequences, which 1803 were newly generated. Our taxonomic sampling spanned 3114 genera representing 323 families plants, covering more than 93% all known from China. The comprehensive large phylogeny supports most relationships among within recognized by recent...
Abstract With the decreasing cost and availability of many newly developed bioinformatics pipelines, next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized plant systematics in recent years. Genome skimming been widely used to obtain high‐copy fractions genomes, including plastomes, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), nuclear ribosomal (nrDNA). In this study, through simulations, we evaluated optimal (minimum) depth performance for recovering single‐copy genes (SCNs) from genome data, by subsampling...
PCOS is a common metabolic disorder in women of reproductive age, which pathogenesis very complex. The role ferroptosis novel finding, and the mechanistic studies are not clear. Metformin commonly used drug but few on whether metformin can improve follicle development ovarian function PCOS. We aims to use mouse model study effect based explored regulation mice by intervening pathway.C57 BL/6J female aged 4-5 weeks were purchased gavaged with letrozole (1 mg/kg/day) combined high-fat diet for...
Regions harbouring high unique phylogenetic diversity (PD) are priority targets for conservation. Here, we analyse the global distribution of plant PD, which remains poorly understood despite plants being foundation most terrestrial habitats and key to human livelihoods. Capitalising on a recently completed, comprehensive checklist vascular plants, identify hotspots PD test three hypotheses: (1) is more evenly distributed than species diversity; (2) areas highest (often called 'hotspots') do...
As Earth's climate has varied strongly through geological time, studying the impacts of past change on biodiversity helps to understand risks from future change. However, it remains unclear how paleoclimate shapes spatial variation in biodiversity. Here, we assessed influence Quaternary dissimilarity taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional composition among neighboring 200-kilometer cells (beta-diversity) for angiosperm trees worldwide. We found that larger glacial-interglacial temperature...
Abstract Southwest China is characterized by high plateaus, large mountain systems, and deeply incised dry valleys formed major rivers their tributaries. Despite the considerable attention given to alpine plant radiations in this region, timing mode of diversification numerous valley lineages remain unknown. To address knowledge gap, we investigated macroevolution Isodon (Lamiaceae), a lineage commonly distributed southwest wetter areas Asia Africa. We reconstructed robust phylogeny...
Abstract The loss of biodiversity is one the most serious environmental issues in Anthropocene. Understanding extinction risk species essential for preemptive conservation measures, but hampered by gaps geographical and evolutionary knowledge, especially areas/regions that are highly diverse species. Combined with a 21 109‐taxon angiosperm mega‐phylogeny comprehensive distribution database, we evaluated characteristics at Sino‐Himalaya Tibetan Plateau (SHTP). Overall, our results show there...
Due to the wide uses of plastic products, nanoplastics are ubiquitous contaminants in environment. Hence, extensive studies used various models evaluate toxicity nanoplastics. In present study, we developed yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) as an alternative model investigate acute Our results showed that microinjection with 500 mg/kg significantly increased death rate mealworms after 24 or 48 h, 100 nm particles being more effective compared 20 ones. Meanwhile, dose-dependent increase was...
Conflicting relationships have been found between diversification rate and temperature across disparate clades of life. Here, we use a supermatrix comprising nearly 20,000 species rosids-a clade ~25% all angiosperm species-to understand global patterns its climatic association. Our approach incorporates historical temperature, assessment species' niche, two broad-scale characterizations tropical versus non-tropical niche occupancy. We find the rates most subclades dramatically increased over...
Across the globe, tree species are under high anthropogenic pressure. Risks of extinction notably more severe for with restricted ranges and distinct evolutionary histories. Here, we use a global dataset covering 41,835 (65.1% known species) to assess spatial pattern species' phylogenetic endemism, its macroecological drivers, how future pressures may affect conservation status identified hotspots. We found that low-to-mid latitudes host most endemism hotspots, current climate being...
Tobacco curly shoot virus (TbCSV) is a monopartite begomovirus associated with betasatellite (Tobacco betasatellite, TbCSB), which causes serious leaf curl disease on tomato and tobacco in China. It interesting that TbCSV induced severe upward curling Nicotiana benthamiana, but the presence of TbCSB, symptoms changed to be downward curling. However, mechanism interactions between viral pathogenicity, host defense, viral-betasatellite virus-host remains unclear.In this study, RNA-seq was used...
In this study, a method based on laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was developed to detect soil contaminated with Pb. Different levels of Pb were added samples in which tobacco planted over period two four weeks. Principal component analysis and deep learning belief network (DBN) implemented classify the LIBS data. The robustness verified through comparison results support vector machine partial least squares discriminant analysis. A confusion matrix different algorithms shows that...
The Darwinian shortfall, i.e. the lack of knowledge phylogenetic relationships, significantly impedes our understanding evolutionary drivers global patterns biodiversity. Spatial bias in where some regions is more complete than others, could undermine eco‐ and biogeographic inferences. Yet, spatial biases for major groups – such as plants remain poorly understood. Using data 337 023 species (99.7%) seed (Spermatophyta), we produced a map based on regional tested several potential observed...
Whole-genome duplication (WGD; i.e., polyploidy) and chromosomal rearrangement (i.e., genome shuffling) significantly influence structure organization. Many polyploids show extensive shuffling relative to their pre-WGD ancestors. No reference is currently available for Platanaceae (Proteales), one of the sister groups core eudicots. Moreover, Platanus × acerifolia (London planetree; Platanaceae) a widely used street tree. Given pivotal phylogenetic position its 2-y flowering transition,...
