Xiaowen Sun and colleagues report the whole-genome sequencing of common carp, Cyprinus carpio. They also resequenced 33 representative accessions from a worldwide collection provide insights into population structure evolution. The carpio, is one most important cyprinid species globally accounts for 10% freshwater aquaculture production. Here we present draft genome domesticated C. carpio (strain Songpu), whose current assembly contains 52,610 protein-coding genes approximately 92.3%...
Background Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.), a member of Arecaceae family, is one the three major economically important woody palms—the two other palms being oil and coconut tree—and its fruit staple food among Middle East North African nations, as well many tropical subtropical regions.

In comparison to Golden Delicious reference genome, identify 18,047 deletions, 12,101 insertions 14 large...
Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is a cultivated woody plant species with agricultural and economic importance. Here we report genome assembly for an elite variety (Khalas), which 605.4 Mb in size covers >90% of the (~671 Mb) >96% its genes (~41,660 genes). Genomic sequence analysis demonstrates that P. experienced clear genome-wide duplication after either ancient whole duplications or massive segmental duplications. Genetic diversity indicates stress resistance sugar metabolism-related...
Background Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is one of the most important aquaculture species Cyprinidae with an annual global production 3.4 million tons, accounting for nearly 14% freshwater in world. Due to economical and ecological importance common carp, genomic data are eagerly needed genetic improvement purpose. However, there still no sufficient transcriptome available. The objective project sequence deeply provide well-assembled sequences research community. Result Transcriptome...
Hybridization drives rapid speciation by shaping novel genotypic and phenotypic profiles. Genomic incompatibility transcriptome shock have been observed in hybrids, although this is rarer animals than plants. Using the newly sequenced genomes of blunt snout bream ( Megalobrama amblycephala [BSB]) topmouth culter Culter alburnus [TC]), we focused on sequence variation gene expression changes reciprocal intergeneric hybrid lineages (F 1 –F 3 ) BSB × TC. A genome-wide transcriptional analysis...
Antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) used in intensive animal farming threaten human health worldwide; however, the common resistome, ARG mobility, host composition different manures mixed manure composts remain unclear. In present study, metagenomic assembly cross-sample mapping were to comprehensively decipher resistome its potential mobility hosts composts.In total, 201 ARGs shared among (layer, broiler, swine, beef cow, dairy cow) accounted for 86-99% of total relative...
Abstract Symbiodinium are the photosynthetic endosymbionts for corals and play a vital role in supplying their coral hosts with products, forming nutritional foundation high-yield reef ecosystems. Here, we determine cryo-electron microscopy structure of photosystem I (PSI) supercomplex PSI core composed 13 subunits including 2 previously unidentified subunits, PsaT PsaU, as well peridinin-Chl / c -binding light-harvesting antenna proteins (AcpPCIs). The PSI–AcpPCI exhibits distinctive...
Diabetic bladder dysfunction is among the most common and bothersome complications of diabetes mellitus. While filling voiding problems have been reported, precise functional changes in diabetic bladders remain unclear. We investigated time dependent function streptozotocin induced rats.Cystometrograms detrusor muscle contractility were examined male age matched control Sprague-Dawley rats (Harlan, Indianapolis, Indiana) 3, 6, 9, 12 20 weeks after induction with streptozotocin.Diabetes...
The Amur ide (Leuciscus waleckii) is a cyprinid fish that widely distributed in Northeast Asia. Lake Dali Nur population inhabits one of the most extreme aquatic environments on Earth, with an alkalinity up to 50 mmol/L (pH 9.6), thus providing exceptional model which characterize mechanisms genomic evolution underlying adaptation environments. Here, we developed reference genome assembly for L. waleckii from Nur. Intriguingly, identified unusual expanded long terminal repeats (LTRs) higher...
Traditional Chinese medicine uses various herbs for the treatment of diseases thousands years and it is now time to assess characteristics effectiveness these medicinal plants based on modern genetic molecular tools. The herb Flos Lonicerae Japonicae (FLJ or Lonicera japonica Thunb.) used as an anti-inflammatory agent but chemical quality FLJ its efficacy has not been consistent. Here, we analyzed transcriptomes metabolic pathways evaluate active compounds in hope that this approach can be a...
Objective To review studies on diabetic bladder dysfunction (DBD), a common and bothersome complication of diabetes mellitus. Data sources We performed search the English literature through PubMed. The key words used were “diabetes” “bladder dysfunction” or “cystopathy”. Our own data perspective are included in discussion. Study selection Studies containing relevant to DBD selected. Because limited length this article, we also referenced reviews that contain comprehensive amalgamations...
Abstract Background The Northern snakehead (Channa argus), a member of the Channidae family Perciformes, is an economically important freshwater fish native to East Asia. In North America, it has become notorious as intentionally released invasive species. Its ability breathe air with gills and migrate short distances over land makes good model for bimodal breath research. Therefore, recent research focused on identification relevant candidate genes. Here, we performed whole genome...
Diabetic bladder dysfunction (DBD) is among the most common and bothersome complications of diabetes mellitus. Autonomic neuropathy has been counted as cause DBD. In present study, we compared alterations in neurogenically mediated contractile responses urinary rats with streptozocin-induced diabetes, 5% sucrose-induced diuresis, age-matched controls. Male Sprague-Dawley were divided into three groups: 9-wk diabetic rats, diuretic Micturition morphometric characteristics evaluated using...
Diabetic bladder dysfunction is a common complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) with poorly understood natural history. This study examined the temporal changes in function 3, 9, 12, and 20 wk after induction DM by streptozotocin (STZ) male C57BL/6 mice compared that age-matched diabetic treated insulin, 5% sucrose-induced diuretic mice, sham-treated control mice. Conscious cystometrograms were addition to measurements micturition cycle. Diabetes resulted decreased body weight. Bladder...
