Seahorses have a specialized morphology that includes toothless tubular mouth, body covered with bony plates, male brood pouch, and the absence of caudal pelvic fins. Here we report sequencing de novo assembly genome tiger tail seahorse, Hippocampus comes. Comparative genomic analysis identifies higher protein nucleotide evolutionary rates in H. comes compared other teleost fish genomes. We identified an astacin metalloprotease gene family has undergone expansion is highly expressed pouch....
The genome of the seadragon permits lifting veil on its mysterious looks and sex-determining locus.
Lead (Pb) and arsenic (As) are commonly occurring heavy metals in the environment produce detrimental impacts on central nervous system. Although they have both been indicated to exhibit neurotoxic properties, it is not known if joint effects, their mechanisms of action likewise unknown. In this study, zebrafish were exposed different concentrations Pb (40 μg/L, 4 mg/L), As (32 3.2 mg/L) combinations μg/L + 32 mg/L for 30 days. The histopathological analyses showed significant brain damage...
Seahorses have a circum-global distribution in tropical to temperate coastal waters. Yet, seahorses show many adaptations for sedentary, cryptic lifestyle: they require specific habitats, such as seagrass, kelp or coral reefs, lack pelvic and caudal fins, give birth directly developed offspring without pronounced pelagic larval stage, rendering long-range dispersal by conventional means inefficient. Here we investigate seahorses' worldwide biogeographic patterns based on de novo genome...
Abstract The deep sea is one of the most extensive ecosystems on earth. Organisms living there survive in an extremely harsh environment, and their mitochondrial energy metabolism might be a result evolution. As important organelles, mitochondria generate through play role almost all biological activities. In this study, mitogenome deep‐sea anemone ( Bolocera sp.) was sequenced characterized. Like other metazoans, it contained 13 pathway protein‐coding genes two ribosomal RNA s. However,...
Syngnathids (seahorses, pipefishes and seadragons) exhibit an array of morphological innovations including loss pelvic fins, a toothless tubular mouth male pregnancy. They comprise two subfamilies: Syngnathinae Nerophinae. Genomes three members have been analyzed previously. In this study, we sequenced the genome Nerophinae member, Manado pipefish (Microphis manadensis), which has semi-enclosed brood pouch. Comparative genomic analysis revealed that molecular evolutionary rate four...
Abstract Background: The lined seahorse, Hippocampus erectus, is an Atlantic species and mainly inhabits shallow sea beds or coral reefs. It has become very popular in China for its wide use traditional Chinese medicine. In order to improve the aquaculture yield of this valuable fish species, we are trying develop genomic resources assistant selection genetic breeding. Here, provide whole genome sequencing, assembly, gene annotation which can enrich resource further application molecular...
In the highly derived syngnathid fishes (pipefishes, seadragons & seahorses), evolution of sex-role reversed brooding behavior culminated in seahorse lineage's male pregnancy, whose males feature a specialized brood pouch into which females deposit eggs during mating. Then, are intimately engulfed by placenta-like tissue that facilitates gas and nutrient exchange. As fathers immunologically tolerate allogenic embryos, it was suggested pregnancy co-evolved with specific immunological...
Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) has been shown to inhibit reproduction in several species. GnIH suppresses gonadotropin synthesis/release at the hypothalamic and pituitary levels; however, increasing evidence suggests that a putative function gonad. In this study, we demonstrated receptors localize ovary testis goldfish. situ hybridization illustrated goldfish GnIHRs were localized exclusively oocytes before cortical alveolus stage interstitial tissue testis. Implantation of peptides...
GHz femtosecond fiber lasers are being developed to meet the demands of state-of-the-art applications such as high-speed optical communication and ablation-cooled material removal. Harmonic mode locking (HML) opens a portal generate ultrashort pulses. However, impact saturable absorber (SA) in controlling laser repetition rate has long been overlooked. Herein, we successfully boost HML ∼10 by engineering nonlinear absorption film-type single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) SA. Our study first...
We introduce a computationally efficient method for the automation of inverse design in science and engineering. Based on simple least-square regression, underlying dynamic mode decomposition algorithm can be used to construct low-rank subspace spanning multiple experiments parameter space. The proposed composition (ID-DMD) leverages computed low-dimensional enable fast digital optimization laptop-level computing, including potential prescribe dynamics themselves. Moreover, is robust noise,...
Given the high proportion of global fossil energy consumption, Ordovician karst water in North China-type coalfield, as a green source that harnesses both and heat, holds significant potential for mitigating environmental issues associated with fuels. In this work, we collected geothermal samples conducted borehole temperature measurements at Xinhu Coal Mine Huaibei Coalfield, analyzed chemical composition regional water, elucidated characteristics thermal storage, explored influence...
The evolution of male pregnancy is the most distinctive characteristic syngnathids, and their specialized life history traits make syngnathid species excellent model for many issues in biological evolution. However, origin syngnathids evolutionary divergence time different remain poorly resolved. Comprehensive phylogenetic studies Syngnathidae will provide critical evidence to elucidate origin, evolution, dispersal patterns. We sequenced mitochondrial genomes eight this study, estimated...
ABSTRACT Leptin is an essential hormone for the regulation of energy metabolism and food intake in vertebrate animals. To better understand physiological roles leptin nutrient paternal ovoviviparous fish (family Syngnathidae), present study cloned full-length leptin-a receptor (lepr) genes lined seahorse (Hippocampus erectus). Results showed that there was a 576-bp intron between two exons gene but no leptin-b seahorse. Although primary amino acid sequence conservation very low, 3-D...
The kisspeptin/GPR54 system plays a crucial role in the regulation of reproductive axis vertebrates. Male pregnancy and ovoviviparity are special phenomena among To better understand neuroendocrine mechanisms male pregnancy, cDNAs encoding kiss2 GPR54 were cloned functionally characterized from lined seahorse, Hippocampus erectus, an ovoviviparous teleost with pregnancy. core mature peptide seahorse Kiss2 is high conserved, but unique vertebrate Kiss orthologs. In phylogenic analysis,...
Population genetic of seahorses is confidently influenced by their species-specific ecological requirements and life-history traits. In the present study, partial sequences mitochondrial cytochrome b (cytb) control region (CR) were obtained from 50 Hippocampus mohnikei 92 H. trimaculatus four zoogeographical zones. A total 780 base pairs cytb gene sequenced to characterize DNA (mtDNA) diversity. The mtDNA marker revealed high haplotype diversity, low nucleotide a lack population structure...
Inshore-offshore migration occurs frequently in seahorse species either because of prey opportunities or it is driven by reproduction, and variations water temperature may dramatically change migratory behavior physiology. The present study investigated the behavioral physiological responses lined Hippocampus erectus under thermal stress evaluated potential effects different temperatures on its reproduction. results showed that tolerance seahorses was time dependent. Acute (30°C, 2–10 hours)...
Abstract The effects of atmospheric thermal structure on the surface energy flux are poorly understood over Arctic sea‐ice surface. Here, we explore mechanism sensible heat exchange under different types structures by using data collected during Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for Study Climate expedition. quadrant analysis indicates that strong temperature inversions below 100 m enhance non‐local positive (upward) () through entrainment large eddies from convective boundary layer...
