Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are widely used in genetics and genomics research. The Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is an economically ecologically important marine bivalve, it possesses one of the highest levels genomic DNA variation among animal species. SNPs have been extensively investigated; however, mechanisms by which these may be a high-throughput, transferable, economical manner remain to elucidated. Here, we constructed 190K SNP array using Affymetrix Axiom genotyping...
Abstract Comparisons of related species that have diverse spatial distributions provide an efficient way to investigate adaptive evolution in face increasing global warming. The oyster subjected high environmental selections is a model as sessile marine invertebrate. This study aimed detect the divergence energy metabolism two subspecies from genus Crassostrea — C. gigas and angulata —which are broadly distributed along northern southern coasts China, respectively. We examined effects acute...
Abstract Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology is being applied to an increasing number of non-model species and has been used as the primary approach for accurate genotyping in genetic evolutionary studies. However, inferring genotypes from data challenging, particularly organisms with a high degree heterozygosity. This because genotype calls are often inaccurate due low coverage, if this not accounted for, uncertainty can lead serious bias downstream analyses, such quantitative trait...
The distribution of plant species along environmental gradients is expected to be predictable based on organismal function. Plant functional trait research has shown that values generally vary predictably broad-scale climatic and soil gradients. This work also demonstrated at any one point these there a large amount interspecific variation. present proposes this variation may explained by the local-scale sorting traits fertility acidity axes. Specifically, we predicted associated with high...
The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is an important marine fishery resource, which contains high levels of glycogen that contributes to the flavor and quality oyster. However, little known about molecular chemical mechanisms underlying content differences in oysters. Using a homogeneous cultured family, we explored these regulatory networks at level metabolome transcriptome.Oysters with highest lowest natural were selected for differential transcriptome analysis. We identified 1888...
LRET-based optical biosensor of an aptamer-upconversion conjugate was constructed. It is demonstrated that photosensitized breakage and damage aptamers are eliminated by employing UCNPs as donors, the as-designed specific sensitive in detection ATP.
DNA methylation is one of the most important epigenetic modifications eukaryotic genomes and believed to play integral roles in diverse biological processes. Although has been well studied mammals, data are limited invertebrates, particularly Mollusca. The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas an emerging genetic model for functional analysis Recent studies have shown that there a positive association between status gene expression C. gigas; however, whether this exists at exon level remains be...
Both growth and nutritional traits are important economic of Crassostrea gigas (C. gigas) in industry. But few work has been done to study the genetic architecture oyster. In this study, we constructed a high-density map C. help assemble genome sequence onto chromosomes, meanwhile explore basis for via quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping.The contained 5024 evenly distributed markers, with an average marker interval 0.68 cM, thus representing densest produced According high collinearity...
Fine-scale adaptive evolution is always constrained by strong gene flow at vertical level in marine organisms. Rapid environmental fluctuations and phenotypic plasticity through optimization of fitness-related traits organisms play important roles shaping intraspecific divergence. The coastal systems experience variations multiple abiotic factors, especially the temperature. We used a typical intertidal species, Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas), to investigate interaction between...
Abstract Background The boreal forest is one of the largest biomes on earth, supporting thousands species. global climate fluctuations in Quaternary, especially ice ages, had a significant influence distribution forest, as well divergence and evolution species inhabiting this biome. To understand possible effects on-going future change it would be useful to reconstruct past population size changes relate such climatic events past. We sequenced genomes 32 individuals from two bird species,...
Temporal niche partitioning is an important strategy for sympatric species or populations when utilizing limited resources while minimizing competition. Different resource availability across seasons may also influence the intensity of competition, resulting in a varied temporal pattern between species. These competitive interactions are drivers formation biodiversity patterns and coexistence on eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. To clarify these interspecies relationships among species, we...
Abstract Tibetan Buddhist monasteries are widely distributed throughout the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau and significant locations for human–wildlife coexistence. Given significance of their historical contemporary social influence, it is crucial to ascertain whether there exists a non‐negligible correlation between these surrounding wildlife. In contrast sacred mountains lakes, have been few studies that examined relationship wildlife communities. Using birds as model ecological community,...
The number of breeding pairs crested ibis (Nipponia nippon) in Hanzhong, China has recovered remarkably from 2 to 511 1981 2019. Although the been closely monitored, habitat preference bird not well studied despite extensive increase abundance. We used nest site data past 39 years and 30 environmental variables develop species distribution models for each year. applied random forest select important variables, logistic regressions quantify changes preferences years, taking into account...
Abstract Nature reserves play an extraordinarily important role in conserving animal populations and their habitats. However, landscape change unreasonable zoning designations often render these protected areas inadequate. Therefore, regular evaluation of the efficacy lands is critical for maintaining improving management strategies. Using species distribution models GAP analysis, we assessed changes suitable habitat Brown Eared-pheasant ( Crossoptilon mantchuricum ) two Chinese nature...
Zoning is an effective way to achieve regional planning and construction as well standardized management. Efficient management zone designations would contribute strengthening endangered species biodiversity conservation of nature reserves. We evaluated the effectiveness Baihuashan National Nature Reserve (BNNR), which was established primarily conserve vulnerable Brown Eared-Pheasant (Crossoptilon mantchuricum). used distribution models (SDMs) GAP analysis assess that suitability current...

Yersinia pestis a flea-borne pathogen responsible for millions human deaths three global pandemics. However, the functional role this remains unclear. Here, we found more acetylated proteins and higher degree Y. grown under mammalian host (Mh) conditions than flea vector (Fv) conditions, suggesting could significantly change during fleabite transmission.
