Abstract Bean flower thrips Megalurothrips usitatus is a staple pest of cowpea and other legumes causes dramatic economic losses. Its small size allows for easy concealment, large reproductive capacity easily leads to infestations. Despite the importance genome in developing novel management strategies, genetic studies on M. remain limited. Thus, we generated chromosome-level using combination PacBio long read Hi-C technologies. The assembled was 238.14 Mb with scaffold N50 13.85 Mb. final...
Coccinellidae (ladybird beetles) comprises around 6900 described species with a worldwide distribution and exhibits broad trophic diversity. Complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are valuable resources in many research fields, such as genomics, population genetics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics. Here we sequenced report the complete mitogenome of Calvia chinensis, Micraspis discolor, Harmonia eucharis, Oenopia kirbyi. By comparing 36 mitogenomes published GenBank, found that long...
Abstract Background Lice (Psocodea: Phthiraptera) are one important group of parasites that infects birds and mammals. It is believed the ancestor parasitic lice originated on ancient avian host, mammals acquired these via host-switching from birds. Here we present first chromosome-level genome Menopon gallinae in Amblycera (earliest diverging lineage lice). We explore transition louse to at genomic level by identifying numerous idiosyncratic variations. Results The assembled 155 Mb length,...
The mechano-responsiveness of osteocytes is critical for maintaining bone health and associated with a reduced oxidative stress defense, yet the precise molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Here, we address gap by investigating epigenetic reprogramming that drives osteocyte responses to mechanical loading. We found overall remodeling antioxidant response under loading identified NRF2, key transcription factor in response, which plays vital role osteocytes. results showed...
Introduction Mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) is a widely utilized source of genetic data for animal species identification, molecular phylogeny, phylogeography, and evolutionary research at various taxonomic scales. With 14,500 recognized placed in over 1,100 genera, Galerucinae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), also known as leaf beetles, the largest subfamily within Chrysomelidae. Methods We newly sequenced annotated five mitogenomes from Galerucinae. Additionally, we investigated their...
We designed a new type of gas sensor, an optical tentacle, made highly integrated polymer micro-ring resonators in three-dimensional space on the tiny end-facet multicore fiber. Two pairs three were hung symmetrically both sides suspended micro-waveguides as sensing units. The interlace to form three-layer nested configuration, which makes fiber "tentacle" for vapors volatile organic compounds. Both experiments and theoretical simulation confirmed that symmetrical coupling multiple rings...
Extensive gene rearrangement is characteristic in the mitogenomes of thrips (Thysanoptera), but historical process giving rise to contemporary pattern remains unclear. To better understand evolutionary processes thrips, we sequenced mitogenome banded thrip species Aeolothrips xinjiangensis. First, found a novel mitochondrial order this species. This 16,947 bp length and encodes typical 37 coding genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA two rRNA genes) insects. The arrangement was dramatically...
The potential of Raman spectroscopy in the analysis low concentration organic contaminants on apples' surface was evidenced this study. Chlorpyrifos, an organophosphorus pesticide, used as a probe for purpose. characteristic peaks fingerprints pesticide aluminum substrate and apple fruit cuticle without residue were acquired first. Then range chlorpyrifos (commercial products at 40%) solutions made using deionised distilled water. Single 100 μL droplets placed gently cuticles left to...
The recently reorganized classification of Mantodea has made significant progress in resolving past homoplasy problems, although some relationships among higher taxa remain uncertain. In the present study, we utilized newly sequenced mitogenomes and nuclear gene sequences 23 mantid species, along with published data 53 mantises, to perform familial-sampling structural comparisons mantodean phylogenomic studies. Our rstructural analysis revealed generally conserved mitogenome organizations, a...
Insect mitochondrial genomes (mitogenome) generally present a typical gene order, which is considered as the ancestral arrangement. All sequenced mitogenomes in Thysanoptera display high levels of rearrangement. Due to limited number thrips sequenced, how rearrangement may be shaped by evolution remain unclear. Here, we analyzed 33 mitogenomes, including 14 newly sequenced. These were diverse organization, nucleotides substitution and arrangements. We found 28 highly rearranged orders with...
Abstract The development of alternative medications for urate-lowering therapies is imperative patients that are intolerant to current treatments. Despite GWAS have identified hundreds loci associated with serum urate levels, the mechanistic understanding and discovery drug targets remain difficult. This difficulty arises from multiple-independent-associations challenge in genomic studies complex diseases as hyperuricemia. Here, we introduced a locus-specific stratification (LSS) gene...
The mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Thysanoptera has extensive gene rearrangement, and some species have repeatable control regions. To investigate the characteristics expression, transcription post-transcriptional processes in such extensively gene-rearranged mitogenomes, we sequenced mitogenome transcriptome Sericothrips houjii to analyze. was 14,965 bp length included two CRs contains 140 repeats between COIII-trnN (CR1) trnT-trnP (CR2). Unlike putative ancestral arrangement insects,...
The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the assassin bug, Reduvius gregoryi, was determined. sequenced mitogenome is a typical circular DNA molecule 16,477 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA 22 tRNA genes and putative control region. Protein-coding all initiate with ATN codons terminate TAA except for ATP6, COI, COIII, ND4, ND5 use single T residue as termination codon. All tRNAs have clover-leaf structure tRNASer(AGN) length them range from 61 to 70 bp. region 1731 bp...
Allergic rhinitis is a common disease of otolaryngology head and neck surgery. Its incidence rate keeps increasing year by year. Vitamin D kind sterol derivative which also considered as steroid hormone. In recent years, related studies have found that vitamin has certain correlation with allergic rhinitis. some effects on T cells, macrophages, dendritic eosinophils, in way, it regulates the body's immune system. However, specific mechanism not clear. There are controversies over...
