The toads of the genus Brachytarsophrys Tian & Hu, 1983 are distributed in southern China, Myanmar, Vietnam, Laos and northern Thailand. Seven species have been recognised, which five them known from China so far. qiannanensis sp. nov., a new short-legged toad is here described Guizhou Province, China. Diagnostic characters illustrated comparisons with its congeners provided. Its validity also affirmed by distinct mitochondrial gene sequence divergence all monophyly recovered...
Abstract Background As an attracted compatible solute, 1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid (ectoine) showed great potentials in various field. However, lower productivity and high saline medium seriously hinder its wide applications. Results The entire ectoine metabolism, including pathways for synthesis catabolism, was identified the genome of ectoine-excreting strain Halomonas hydrothermalis Y2. By in-frame deletion genes encoding hydroxylase (EctD) (or) hydrolase...
Abstract Particle accelerators play a crucial role in scientific research and industrial applications, enhancing their reliability, ensuring stable operation, reducing downtime caused by faults are essential for achieving goals. This paper introduces novel particle accelerator fault diagnosis method based on deep learning multi-sensor feature fusion. The approach employs one-dimensional convolution to extract signals from multiple sensors achieves comprehensive fusion of data, effectively...
The frog genus Odorrana is distributed across east and southeastern Asia. Based on morphological differences molecular phylogenetics, a new species of the occurring from Leigong Mountain in Guizhou Province, China described. Phylogenetic analyses based DNA sequences mitochondrial 12S rRNA , 16S ND2 genes supported as an independent lineage. uncorrected genetic distances between its closest congener were 5.0%, 4.9%, 16.3%, respectively. distinguished congeners by combination following...
Integrative taxonomy, a multi-disciplinary approach adding modern techniques to traditional morphology-based methods (e.g. molecular and morphological criteria), can play an important role in bioinvasion research identify introduced taxa, discover pathways of introduction inform authorities control prevent future introductions. The present study is the first on populations Callosciurus, Asiatic tree squirrels, known as potentially invasive species Europe (Italy, Belgium France). We combined...
Abstract Background Understanding how overwintering birds choose foraging habitats is very important for conservation management. The Black-necked Crane ( Grus nigricollis ) feeds on crop remains in farmlands; thus, reasonable management of this type farmland that surrounds wetlands critical the populations Crane; however, it not clear chooses land farmland. Methods A thorough field positioning survey all sites areas around Caohai Wetland and a sampling analysis habitat selection by were...
A new species of small tree frog was discovered in southwestern China, exhibiting morphological differences and molecular divergence. The species, formally described herein as Gracixalus weii sp. nov. , is morphologically distinct from other congeners by body size (SVL 30.1–34.0 mm males 35.2–36.0 females). In addition, the head width larger than length, with a tympanum, brown to beige dorsum, an inversed Y-shaped dark marking. skin dorsal lateral surfaces head, body, limbs rough sparsely...
The escalating incidence of human-wildlife conflicts involving protected species has posed a significant challenge in global conservation. Although population growth, byproduct successful conservation, often been pinpointed as key factor, the impact human-induced land use changes and habitat loss on conflict occurrence not well comprehended, especially at broader regional levels. In China’s mountainous southwest, between humans nationally rhesus macaque ( Macaca mulatta ) have intensified...
ABSTRACT Aim The Odorrana schmackeri complex (OSC), widely distributed across southern China, presents intriguing mysteries regarding its diversification dynamics. Resolving these evolutionary enigmas would establish a crucial foundation for understanding biogeographic evolution in this topographically region. Therefore, we integrated phylogenetic, demographic, and ecological niche analyses to elucidate the roles of ancient tectonism, Quaternary climatic fluctuations, shaping distribution....
The Ebola virus disease spread rapidly in West Africa 2014, leading to the loss of thousands lives. Community engagement was one key strategies interrupt transmission, and practical community level measures needed be explored field tailored specific context communities.First, community-level education on (EVD) prevention launched for community's social mobilizers six districts Sierra Leone beginning November 2014. Then, from January May 2015, three pilot communities, local trained members...
The Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) feature for pedestrian detection has achieved good results, but it is time-consuming. For resolving this problem, a modified method HOG proposed to reduce the dimension features. On base analyzing process HOG, nine independent channels (HOG-C) are extracted according gradient orientation interval. Through evaluating effectiveness HOG-C individually, combination (CHOG-C) presented based on statistical regularities. Comprehensive experiments INRIA...
In anurans, acoustic communication is the most important form of at interspecific and intraspecific levels. Acoustic diagnostic features may be a potential alternative to morphometric molecular diagnostics. Here, we assessed variations in advertisement calls between two sympatric species,
The differential evolution (DE) is usually considered as a robust, fast, powerful optimization approach. DE has been widely applied to solve many problems in the continuous-valued space. However, seldom used binary-valued space owing its particular operators. paper uses Q-bit string representation, and proposes quantum-inspired algorithm (QDE). operators of are be able drive individuals move better solutions. Numerical experiments performed illustrate performance QDE compared with three...
East Yunnan-Kweichow Plateau is rich in biodiversity China. Complex geographical and climatic conditions bird resources made this area an ideal system for studying the spatial distribution mechanism influencing factors of birds, which were still unknown. Bird community data from 37 sites region collected, including 505 species 164 resident passerine bird, extracted analysis. The taxonomic diversity, phylogenetic functional diversity (FD), structure index calculated. Ordinary least square...
Wild boars (Sus scrofa) are extremely common in southern China, but little study has been conducted regarding reporting the dietary habits of wild using high-throughput sequencing technology, especially karst areas, due to difficulty obtaining stomach contents boars. In our study, 14 China were analyzed by DNA metabarcoding. The results showed that there 153 genera, 93 families, and 48 orders plant food sources for main component Cissus, Dioscorea, Quercus, Actinidia, Houttuynia. most...
Assessing the trophic niche and interspecific relationships between related species determining how maintain differences in nutritional niches while coexisting same area are important topics ecological research. Therefore, exploring mechanism of food resource utilization, competition coexistence among distributed region is important. In this study, we used fecal samples metagenome sequencing technology to study plant feeding habits mechanisms Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) grey...
Biological habitat islanding occurs with the expansion of human activities. Nature reserves are biodiversity hotspots and sources diffusion.
